Is it the definitive end of the thong?

Let's do a brief life review. If you usually wear a thong on a daily basis, when and why did you start doing it? Most likely, your answer is something related to "with a thong the panties were not marked" or "I found it sexier and, in short, I felt and I feel sexier".

Your love affair with thongs would start with first impressions that weren't tied to comfort, but you ended up getting them and today you wear them often. Is it so?

According to a study carried out by Statista, as time goes by, women stop wearing thongs. The age of 26 is the age where a turning point is generated (we decide not to use it so daily) and at 36, when we definitively abandon that option in our drawer. Do you feel identified with this analysis?

Well, surely you know these points, but we encourage you to review certain issues with which you may want to become aware. More than anything because, if the reasons for wearing a thong are that you don't want your underwear to be marked (really? what difference does it make?) and feel sexier (this is in the mind, right?), maybe it won't make up for you.

The dreaded infections

The optimal material for your intimate area to be dry, healthy and protected, "is cotton -says the gynecologist Javier Cordero- and the point is that most thongs are made with fabrics and other elastic fabrics that are not breathable, and this It usually causes infections.

So, two questions arise here: the first is that these, in general, are not exactly 100% cotton and, on the other hand, "the bacteria that coexist in your anus can pass to your vagina through the back string and cause an infection," says Cordero.

If you are a user of thongs and it has never happened to you, you have been very lucky, and more during periods in which your defenses have been lower due to illness or a simple cold. With the use of panties (100% cotton –and seamless, so that you alleviate your need for them not to be marked, if you wish–) you will eliminate this possibility.

The displacement/movement of the thong

Let's be honest: when we wear a thong, during the day it can easily get out of place, sometimes it has a hard time staying in place! If the occasional "mess" of underwear means repositioning it at the back, sometimes the thong is too small and you have to adjust the front or place the start of the string where it belongs. If this is so, the rubbing or friction of your exposed parts with the fabric of your clothes, such as jeans, can cause skin irritations and, what need do you have to go through that...?

The search for 'comfort'

Even if you ended up not noticing it, do you really think that a thread/string between the buttocks is more comfortable than wearing a breathable cotton fabric that prevents possible infections? Interesting debate here: what really is comfort?

If you have convinced yourself and consider that the thong boom has to remain in 2004 (despite the fact that it insists on coming back, and outside the pants!), get yourself some good cotton panties and put them to good use. We refer to washing them separately from the rest of the clothes or using different ones for day to day and for sports, for example (here we give you other tips).
