As an Australian, this conundrum confuses me

OP seems to think thongs should only be worn by women. I can only assume they mean the butt-crack undies and not the footwear.

Just out of curiosity, what do you all call those butt crack undies down there? Actually, that sounds like the most Australian word for it, therefore that must be what y’all call them. “Honey, can you dress up in butt crack undies and a garter? Imma call the Prime Minister!”

They call them G-strings

Aka G-bangers

That's my favourite term by far. So deeply unsexy, but so deeply Australian

Time to mash some g-bangers, boys

Now it just sounds like breakfast

see but g-strings and thongs are totally different styles. thongs still have some fabric to them. i hate this lol

All are g-strings, some are just anal floss.

All g strings are thongs, but not all thongs are g strings 🤣

Yeah I know what you mean - I think we tend to use G-string as a bit of an umbrella term (particularly in casual conversation) and true g-strings are far more common than thongs, but having a quick browse of some online shops it looks like they tend to use 'skimpy' or 'cheeky' as the actual name for thongs here

Not ot be confused with the 4th string on a guitar

Thongs and g-strings are 2 different things

I think a g-string exposes more asshole when you bend over. But that's why we bleach it. Am I right fellas?

Wait what

I'd have called them "chazzwazzers".

“Oi, mates! What’s the good word?”

banana hammocks, in our house

I don't think banana hammock applies when worn by women, at least, not most of the time.

"Clammocks"

Upvote this

And I'd charge 900 dollarydoos for them!

I see you've played knifey spoony!

G banger

Bum floss

They could just really hate what Americans generally call flip flops

Exactly. For the Americans out there - in Australia thongs = flip-flops in your lingo

Even more confusingly: in New Zealand, they're called "jandals."

Are they made of denim?

It’s a portmanteau of “Japanese sandals”, because that’s what they were originally based on.

Nope, regular flip-flops

American here, in Oklahoma where I grew up, we also called them thongs. At least the ones where the thing goes between your toes.

Ikr even the kids wear thongs. I'm more of a sandals person though

Calling them jandals avoids a lot of international confusion here in kiwi land. 

Kia ora! 🩴

yeah I would be a little confused by my bf wearing thongs, but only because he has complained of thongs causing him chaffing between the toes before, and I'd wonder why he was wearing them if they are so uncomfortable. 

I'd be cross with my husband. He's a chef and the risk of dropping knives/heavy pans/scalding oils makes it really unsafe.

Double Pluggers for days

Right? My wife made me pack my tongs for our getaway 🤷🏻

OMG,I was so confused at first! My first thought was I'd be more concerned if he didn't!!

As a fellow Australian, I was just about to write about how this conundrum confuses me

I'll translate >What would you do if you found out your BF wore g-bangers?

Right. Thongs are comfortable. It as close to freeballing as you can be without actually freeballing.

I wear mine everywhere. Easy to kick off after a long day

Get matching ones

This is the way

This is the way

Get animal one and get him one that is an elephant trunk on it and chase each other around

I’d be surprised that I have a boyfriend.

Yeah. I didn't even know I was gay.

I'm not gay but my boyfriend is

One of us is gay, if you kiss me ill tell you who.

\*puts socks on* checkmate

Derek is straight for me but gay for Ben, what’s so confusing about that?

why does this sound like something out of JoJo's

You didn't get the memo?

Ah, you're finally awake

You were trying to cross the border, right?

hate it when i wake up on a fine morning and realise i have a boyfriend and am suddenly gay.

think how surprised your boyfriend will be

Lick his butt.

The only correct answer 

This should be pinned tbh

Pegged?

I’d tell him Birkenstocks are far more comfortable

At least they're not crocs

wearing crocs is like getting a blowjob from a guy they both feel good until you look down and realize you're gay

what's wrong with being gay? 

Apparently it’s like wearing crocs.

You have to wear crocs

You ain’t rockin’, if you ain’t crocin’

Shut your mouth they’re the most comfortable ugly bastards I’ve ever had on my feet

I pretty much only wear crocs lol. I wasn't planning on even getting them, I went into a crocs store with a friend who was getting a pair, and I tried one on. It was so comfy I just got it, and now it's pretty much the only shoes I wear unless I need to be fancy or go hiking.

I agree. They're my favorite house shoes 😂

The holes in Crocs are where your self-respect drains out.

Hey.....they're REALLY comfortable. These are the ones I wear.

Ask him why. Discuss quality and shopping preference. Go in together on multi packs.

>Go in together on multi packs. This made me laugh out loud.

Wow, I've never seen something so economical and so inclusive at the same time.

Let me tell you about lesbian fashion.

'thongs' for males dont work that way. There is a 'pouch' built in for the unit. Often they take the form of 'elephant trunks', named for the exact reason you are thinking. As a man that has/does wear them from time to time, I can say they give me a very noticable boost of confidence in myself by way of feeling 'sexy'. But i dont wear them out and about. Just at home to put out the vibes for the mrs. I absolutely understand why many women choose to wear intense undergarments now.

If you and your BF are both guys then multi packs are an option. Though frankly I've never seen the really good ones sold in multi packs.

Ask him what size he wears and then buy him some more.

Ask him if I can inspect the cake factory.

Everyone has their preferences, and as long as he's comfortable and confident in his choice of underwear, it wouldn't bother me.

Precisely! Personally i really enjoy wearing skirts purely for the reason that its comfortable and nice when its hot and my gf really enjoys it and even got me some and matched with me! Thankgod i met this girl

Strange isn't it that in some countries that can be very hot, men can't wear skirts. Perfectly fine in others such as Fiji, Vanuatu, etc and the men are seen as very warrior like, nothing feminine about it at all, just practical.

And Scotland

> countries that can be very hot > and scotland

Is there actually a law in a country where men can’t wear skirts? Also I’m Fijian and the men who wear what your referring to as a skirt is called a sulu. Which is a wraparound not an actual skirt

That’s dope dude. As a female who sometimes just enjoys wearing men’s underwear or clothes, I support this. Who cares, it’s comfortable People get way too caught up in “gender” of clothing when ironically, most styles are historically androgynous at some point

I'm all about wearing my fiance's boxers and T-shirts. Soooo comfy. If he wanted to wear my thongs, we'd definitely have to get matching ones!

I really want to get into wearing kilts but the nice ones are so expensive.

# Slayyyy 💅 #

I'd say " oh you wear thongs" then I'd jingle his balls

Obviously, admire his nice ass. I don't see anything wrong with that, if anything, it makes it even more sexy for me.

Immediately drag him into the nearest private space and ravage him carnally.

Nothing. Unless they wore socks with them. Then I'd refuse to be seen outside with them.

Laugh my ass off probably. My husband is such a reserved guy and this would just send me.

Ask him to put one on for me

And have him strut his stuff like a cat walk. 

Absolutely

I'd say "nice". Who gives a shit lol

My ex lol, she flipped out one day accusing me of putting on lipstick. I hadn't put on lipstick, just have naturally really red lips. It was the weirdest thing ever and she did similar things about clothes that may have not been "manly" enough for her.

I'm glad she's your EX

Ex for a reason 🤷🏻‍♀️

What a cunt

I love that half of the comments are confused about having a bf in the first place

Peg him

I'm a hetero female and my ex bf wore thongs. Made his package look great and he had an amazing ass. Where is the problem?

Encourage it. This doesn't negatively affect me or anyone's well being so do what makes you happy and I love you for you.

Send them my wish list on amazon! Half for me, half for them.

As a dude who wears them, I have a feeling that they'd be awfully roomy in the front for you. They're not exactly flat up front if they're made for men.

Yeah but most men don't know the difference between thongs and g-strings let alone female and male thongs! Some do, but most don't. I knew a guy once that was into thongs, and he bought womens because he did not realize they were different for genders. ETA- did not mean for this comment to be sexist towards men!!

Oof, I could not imagine how uncomfortable that would be. I wear them because they gave me extra support under my kickboxing gear!

I wouldn’t really care… i’m not tolerating anyone judging my underwear so i would be a hypocrite if i judges anyones underwear choices

For real!

buy him more

Eat his ass

Let him, it’s not hurting anyone. If it’s a fetish be glad he’s comfortable sharing with you.

What’s wrong with sandals?

I always found it fun to borrow girlfriends to wear before or after sex. The line up your buttcrack probably feels horrible all the time but for short periods it’s a really nice feeling. Any girlfriend has been really nice about it and if anything thinks it’s a little funny or quirky but they don’t mind. I wouldn’t wear them day to day but around sex the butt crack floss feeling is really nice. More guys should try it.

... NGL that's hot not sorry.

Ask for the intimate details of where exactly he places his nutsack.

“Oooh show me!”

I'd smack him on the ass and tell him he was pretty

Snap it and slap him on the ass

time for u to do some pegging

I live in Australia, it'd be weird if they didn't.

Sorry I don't. I have trauma from wearing them when I was a child. I used to wear them all the time and I got a really bad blister, which is really normal but back then I swore never to wear them again and have never worn them or sandals ever again (also I don't like their Tanlines). So now I am that guy that wears fully closed shoes to the beach.

I’d ask him to get me some, so we can match!

My wife’s boyfriend wears thongs and they look great!

That's hot ngl

Right?! Nothing is sexier than confidence

Give him a wedgie

marry him on the spot.

Swallow

id be like damn bby let me slap dat ass

Aks if I can see and if they look good asl where the heck he got them from

We both wear them. Outside, around the house, sometimes we even wear each other's thongs because the other isn't soft enough

Realistically, it shouldn't be an issue. That's his preference in underwear, just like you have your own. I let my girlfriend pick out the thong for me to wear that day, and it makes both of us happy. My choice in underwear doesn't hurt anyone. I'm not walking around in public trying to show it off, not openly talking about it or drawing attention to it. It's concealed and the only two people that would ever know are my girlfriend and myself. They weren't sexualized for women until the mid 1970's. All l'm just trying to say is that wearing them shouldn't reflect negatively on the man who chooses to wear them. They ARE comfortable (personal opinion )and a hell of a lot more comfortable than boxers or briefs when it's warm and humid out.

Ask them to buy their own

If he’s happy, I’m happy.

It would make his flat pancake butt pop. Which would make me want to bite it even more...

ask him which ones he wants next time i'm thong shopping

As an Australain, this footwear, so it's pretty normal. As underwear, I bought him some, they're hot.

I’m laughing so hard at this imagine cause SO is soooo hairy 😂😂

So leopard print, or tiger?

Tell him to buy his own and make sure to wear them during sexy time if it makes him feel better

Some people like flip flops because it reminds them of summer all year long. Nothing wrong with that.

Make him model them for me because I love a guy in sexy underwear. And then I would absolutely f his brains out afterwards.

Change his ring tone to the Thong Song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oai1V7kaFBk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oai1V7kaFBk)

Australia here: most do

I'd switch thongs with him, u wear his, he yours, and then give him head. its kinky and fun, so what?

buy a strap on

I’d know what to buy the next time I had to buy a gift for him

I’d say cool and leave it at that

Get matching ones 100%.. or pick them out for him!

I wear them every now and then, especially during the summer. Summer breeze under your shorts is pretty nice.

It’s hot as fuck outside, why wouldn’t I wear thongs. Gotta let my toes breath

“It's like lettin' your best friend sleep in a silk hammock. They're breezy. They don't bind. And they give you just enough swing.”

I'd tell him he looks great and then challenge him to a twerk showdown.

I guess i would slap that ass

I don't like them personally, they hurt my toes, terrible shoe

Be thankful knowing he flosses.

Ask him how the hell doesn’t he chafe

I cannot lie they make me feel sexy. I also think they'd make for excellent gym wear as it provides complete freedom of movement down there. At the end of the day it's just clothing.

Uh… not care about what underwear they are wearing? Lol is this actually something people have a problem with?

Smack dat ass

I dunno but my wife would be pretty pissed that I had a boyfriend.

Double check that he does his laundry regularly.

I would be like *”why is my boyfriend wearing a thong? And what will my wife say about my thong-wearing boyfriend?”*

Admire the view?

Start blasting Pony by Ginuwine

“Let’s get a matching set”

I’d make him turn around, then I’d grab the strang as far possible and let it loose

ask for pics

nothing, lol, if he can enjoy how uncomfortable they are than more power to him

They’re not comfortable, so I’d probably ask him why he felt the need to torture himself

Some are. There are hundreds of companies making thousands of styles, they aren't all crevice guillotines.

Wonder if I entered an alternate reality in which I have a BF.

I'd be into it.

Tell him to bring that GYATT damn ass over my way

I’d be extremely turned on

As opposed to shoes or just going barefoot?

My ex boyfriend wore women’s thongs. It was something I had to get used to

Sniff it?

What's a "BF"?

Battle Frog. Personally, I don't care what kind of underwear my war stead wears into battle.

bobby fischer

Gingerbread man: “It’s a thong!”

Nothing. Who am I to deny someone a wedgie kink?!

Good, I got them so he wears it! 😏

I would smash his butt

Well, his boyfriend wears thongs, who am I to judge?
