View Full Version : Wearing Thongs at Work ?
Now, I'm not going all prudish here - and I'm not totally against it, but someone at work got in trouble not to long ago for showing her thong everytime she sat down or bent over.
It's sort of taken for granted now that flashing abit of butt-cheek is the norm, but should it be banned at work or schools etc . .
Just to show I dont think theres anythong wring with it:

cheet1889 26-06-2005, 11:21 Its all good to me - I don't mind the lady's flashing abit in the office, in town in fact anywhere
Absolutely fine by me.
Just wonder how the ladies may react if blokes were to flash their y fronts though?
:lol:
we are subject to all these young lads with thier tousers at thier knees flashing thier CK knock off all the time so why not?
banesmabes 26-06-2005, 12:34 It depends on the situation. If someone is dealing with the public it's not exactly appropriate to be flashing yourself about all the time. I once had to put a receptionist through the capability procedure at work, and part of the reason was that she was wearing inappropriate clothing. It wouldn't have been an issue if she worked in a private office, but she was the first person everyone saw when they walked into the building.
My personal opinion on the matter is that it just looks really tacky seeing the back of someone's thong riding above their trousers. I wear them from time to time and manage not to go flashing it off to everyone.
Annoni_mouse 26-06-2005, 12:40 As someone who has to put up with owlschick's daily display of her fine collection of cerise thongs:gag: ,all I can say is BAN ALL THONGS FROM THE WORKPLACE! -except if youre a pole dancer,of course:D
muddycoffee 26-06-2005, 12:42 That picture you have there, is of a particularly fine lady's bum. The average image of this site, which you can often see every day however is much less savory.
There is usually a horrible mess of a tattoo, a horrible cheap stretched piece of black thong, emerging from hipster fitted jeans or trousers, often innoppropriately selected for someone who is as out of condition as that.. Enough to put you off your tea, yeuch! :gag:
Also I find people making sandwhiches with loads of rings on disgusting. And I don't like to buy food when there is someone with lots of face piercings, after hearing about lots of bacteria being harboured in those sites unless they are carefully managed.
All those things just put me off and I don't feel like eating.

i agree with all that! some women shouldnot wear what they wear! i am a + size and i do not like seeing these jubbly women with thier overhang, underhang and chicken wings! sometimes they wear the thongs and you can see its cuttin into thier skin, its really rank...
if you go into a food place and they are wearing jewellry report them to eho, the only jewellry allowed on hands is a Plain wedding band :D
Rachel99 26-06-2005, 12:54 I'd rather have my thong showing above the back of my trousers instead of wearing knickers with tight trousers that clearly show one side is stuck up my bum.
sounds smashing that does:heyhey: :heyhey: :heyhey:
melthebell 26-06-2005, 13:16 im turned off by the look of "most" of the thong wearing public tbh
one morning on my way to work a lady (i use the term loosly) walked past me, didnt even have to bend over........and the only bit of the thong i couldnt see was the actual gusset bit that actually covered her *AHEM*
now i like to view nekid women just as much as the next bloke ......but

as for pole dancers, theres should be banned too :heyhey: :heyhey:
WallBuilder 26-06-2005, 16:26 I can remember when thongs first started to become a common item of clothing and several of my female friends liked to wear them so they didn't have VPL [visible panty line] I never thought anything wrong about this but then the horrible 'fashion' of the thong being seen above the top of the trousers started to appear. It looks vile and I'm sure I've seen a ttrend towards the trousers being worn lower and lower on the hips so you get girls now walking around with the 'builders bum' look, it may be marginally more attractive than a big hairy builder but not much and as it's the 'fashion' you do see a lot of girls who with their build in this case should NOT be following fashion.
Thongs are OK as long as ONLY women are wearing them...

I believe that people should wear clothing appropriate to their place of work; for example wearing hipster jeans with a thong and bum cheeks showing would not be appropriate in a solicitors office, bank or doctors' surgery or clinic, would it?

I would tend to agree there should be an appropriate dress code.
However, where would be the most apt place for someone to work dressed as you describe?
Let me know and I'l try for a job there.
:thumbsup:
*Twinkle* 26-06-2005, 21:46 I think you should be able to wear whatever you want as underwear, so long as you don't go showing everyone!!!! God, have people lost all their self respect? I don't want anyone to see what knickers I'm wearing, or whether or not they're small/large/non-existant! lol
I once pulled up my jeans and oiked up my underwear with them, showing off my knickers to half of west street when I was popping out for a pint of milk! I was mortified, but hey I must have fit right in with the high brief wearing population, none of which batted an eyelid, despite my obvious horror at such exposure! :blush: :blush:
Personally, I don't like to see the tops of thongs above someone's clothing. I wear thongs but no-one gets to see them.
But it's the same with showing the midriff too. If someone has a toned body showing the midriff isn't too bad - as long as they are not at work. ie: on a night out. But some of the people walking along should be fined for offensive dressing (if there was such a thing)! :gag:
I saw an advert for a thong.
It said: Thong for sale, kept in good nick.
Im all in favour of thong flashing and the like [ also partial to suspenders] but then again Im a dirty old letcher who needs therapy.
Swan_Vesta 27-06-2005, 10:29 The sight of a thong is only as attractive as it's owner.
If the thong is addorning a cheeky, well rounded behind then "Woohoo!" all is well and groovy.
However, If it's cradling a derelict backside which to all intents and purposes should not be seen before 9pm then then I have an issue.
Yes I admit I'm shallow. Shallow but honest :D
i wear nothing but thongs - don't want a VPL thank-you very much. and its just getting too damn hot in the office !!
but at work the trousers i wear aren't low riding so aren't going to show anything they shouldn't. its hardly professional.
BertieBasset 27-06-2005, 11:10 'spose commando's the only other option.... :heyhey:

SteveWilson 27-06-2005, 11:38 personally i dont wear things for work for two reasons.
1) i am not female
2) i'm not a bender
I love seeing a loverly tight ass, with a nice thong! GRRRRR
Better than some big granny, period pants or bloomers.
I don't see the point of them to be honest
pussycat 27-06-2005, 12:12 Originally posted by Colonel

The point of them is that having a big triangle of material trying to squidge up your bum is really uncomfortable (as well as looking awful, as someone else said), so having a strip of material that fits neatly is far better.
Like Hels, I never wear anything but thongs, but unless I'm horribly mistaken, nobody ever sees them (Edd, back me up here! :help: )
I went to great lengths to find some hipster thongs for all the reasons above (comfort, aesthetics, modesty). They need replacing now, so if anybody knows where I can get more... Ta :thumbsup:

am sure there's somewhere more easily accessable but i got some really nice ones from Victorias Secrets - cheap too, they were 3 for $15. you can order on-line here (http://www.victoriassecret.com)
they have an on-line sale until july 4th.
look under the v-strings section :thumbsup:
BertieBasset 27-06-2005, 14:05 if you're not careful they'll be stalking u out of work after that innuendo.... :hihi:

oh yes !! ooops. don't worry - got my injunctions at the ready !
Some of our young secretaries wear them and its fine with me :thumbsup: , Im not sure if they would approve if they got a glimpse of my underwear.
BertieBasset 27-06-2005, 14:35 i guess another poll of how many girls from the Forum go commando may be a bit too inquisitive.... :heyhey:

That's ugly. Reminds me of a few years ago when girls exposed bra straps under skimpy t-shirts. I guess I'm an old fashioned girl. I keep my underwear hidden. Better still don't wear any! But looking at someones underwear..that's nasty. And that's because the trend it's not always reserved for skinny good looking girls. Now if the guys would start a trend doing that? Oh they already did? So why do we girls have to look at a guys butt with huge boxer shorts sticking out of the top? Who started that? Will Smith? The "homeboy" look. That was the dumbest fashion I've ever seen. Not in fashion in England?? Thank god.
you will ever resolve this problem. all for one reason; some people look good in thongs others don't. however all people working in public places should keep it hidden. If you work in a private office than whats the need to look nice (unless theres a firend you might like). No one can see you, you should feel comfortable. People these days are so involved in what they look like they don't no how to have fun.

I believe the fashion started with African American males who would copy the way their peers looked after they'd been arrested by police.
When taken in to custody the suspect's belt is removed for obvious reasons leaving the unsupported trousers to hang down. If I remember it's called bagging or something like that.

If the science work dries up, you'll always be able to find work as a builder ;) :P :hihi:
'hungry bum' is easily solved by wearing jeans, looser trousers or tighter underwear which won't budge, thus eliminating the need for an unsightly cheesewire. I once saw someone who had got the wrong idea and simply had the back of her excessively dirty (we are talking 'stripes') underwear hanging out the back of her trousers and was nearly sick.
However there are worse things, such as low slung trousers and skirts, too short tops on anyone over the age of 14 or above 6 stone. Alas the sun has come out and there are too many examples of 'Julie five bellies' out - I manage to cover it up, why can't they? ;)

That first picture just isn't attractive tbh.
LordSnooty 27-06-2005, 23:05 [i]bloomers. [/B]
What's wrong with Bloomers? I really cannot see the attraction of this thong thing. If you want to show us your bum - fine, show us your bum. Don't spoil it by wearing a thong as well, it ruins the whole effect. And if you don't want to show us your bum, don't show us your bum. What could be simpler?
When it comes to thongs v bloomers, bloomers win hands down (geddit?) If you fall into a deep river, pool or lake wearing only a thong and you cannot swim, then it's 'goodnight Vienna'. If you fall into etc etc wearing only bloomers and you cannot swim, you will be saved, as long as you remember to tie a knot in each leg (of the bloomers, you understand) before inflation.
I think the less said about 'period pants', the better....

Oh dear. Google found this (http://www.feralweb.com/pp.htm) when I asked about 'period pants' :(
That has got to be the funniest thing i've seen in ages. ROFL
I'd better make a mention of thongs at work, don't want to go off thread! There, thongs at work, done.

Tummy support thongs eh? Strangely enough I'd not considered these when making that statement :hihi:
Just wondering if they do a similar one in boxer short style to rein in the start of my paunch :D Old age is taking its toll and I can't rely on youth to keep me looking trim!
LordSnooty 28-06-2005, 08:36 And just to think, I've been wearing 'apple catchers' all my life and never knew they had such a brilliant name. I will add the following to my list of chat-up lines - 'excuse me, madam, what colour apple-catchers have you got on?'. I now have one chat-up line.....
Splodge_CRB 28-06-2005, 09:03 Please... I know you're good people.... and I know that no matter how much you were tempted, you would never ever ever consider giving someone in a thong a wedgie....
Welcome to the forum Splodge_CRB.
In answer to your question, wouldn't like to think of the consequences!!!
Splodge_CRB 28-06-2005, 09:32 Thanks PhilipB -
Er.... the consequences are far reaching, trust me!
It's an admittedly ropey look, but you have to admire the optimism and sheer chutzpah of the thong exposer. We live in a Britain that has woken up to the exotic delights of exotic and spicy cuisine from every corner of the globe. Nowadays, to wear a vestigial piece of string up one's chuff crack, underneath another flimsy and absorbent garment, displays incredible confidence in one's colonic security.
Classic Rock 28-06-2005, 10:22 Splodge doesn't like thongs, they don't fit properly, she tells me. They are the last pairs left when all her others are in the wash pile. :D
Splodge_CRB 28-06-2005, 10:43 True....back to the four peggers.......sigh

you no what to do if you dont like common ppl bobbie, go back to where you came from. :wave:
Er, I don't think it's very nice calling everybody from Sheffield 'common' :shakes:
The sheffielders I've met, for the most part, are perfectly civilised thank you :thumbsup:
MOD: Robbie & OwlsChick go & slug it out via PM & let everyone else get back on topic please ;)
Splodge_CRB 28-06-2005, 16:24 Sheffielders are luvverly! I wouldn't have spent 25 yrs here else
Besides, they still burn witches up North
Now I decided that thongs were totally inapropriate for me (for reasons hinted at above) and I'd never wear them in a bar again but come the fashion revolution and everybody starts wearin directoire knickers again wot do we do with all those miles of string?
Tie up the tomatoes with them? Cunningly fashion them into string bags? Use them to strangle ppl who give wedgies? :?

Else it will have to be renamed
pokingoutwear.
Or blunderwear, in many of these sorry cases.

Splodge never throws away her pants. Any excuse to hang on to them. She's still got pairs from the 70s. Hey, I'm gonna go check to see exactly what's holding up those tomato plants! Ewwww!
Splodge_CRB 29-06-2005, 10:46 Not my mumsy pants, that's for sure!
(tomatoes need sunlight...)
Classic Rock 29-06-2005, 11:57 But yours are huge. Polo neck knickers!
Splodge_CRB 29-06-2005, 12:14 Ha! that explains why u wear thongs!:hihi: :P :thumbsup:
