Though it’s sometimes worn to turn up the heat in the bedroom, many women wear the cheek-exposing briefs to avoid panty lines under close-fitting skirts and pants.

]]> 52210 2 34 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/109068/34.jpg Think of thong as panty When considering fit, think of the thong like any other panty. If it’s too small it could cut off your circulation; if it’s too big, it could bunch in the front or sit above your waist.

]]> 52211 3 48 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/109068/48.jpg Choose one that will stay hidden Thongs come in lots of different cuts, like high-waisted, g-string, hip huggers, low-rise—even crotchless. Choose one that works best for you, and that will stay hidden below your waistline.

]]> 52212 4 59 Tip Since a thong is meant to be discreet, announcing itself every time you bend over defeats the purpose—and just looks tacky.

]]> 52213 5 66 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/109068/66.jpg Choose the fabric Choose the fabric you prefer. For everyday underwear, stick to 100% cotton. There are also thongs made from cotton and spandex blends, cotton and Lycra blends, nylon and spandex microfiber, silk knits, mesh, and—although notoriously itchy—lace.

]]> 52214 6 82 Tip Thongs can chafe—and encourage yeast infections, so avoid wearing them to sleep.

]]> 52215 7 88 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/109068/88.jpg Consider color or pattern Consider the color or pattern of the thong.The point is to make your underwear invisible through your clothes, so if you need a thong to wear with a white skirt, we beg you: don’t pick a hot pink thong.

]]> 52216 8 100 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/109068/100.jpg Give it time Comfort isn’t the main function of a thong, so if you’ve never worn one, you’ll have to get used to having what at first feels like a wedgie. Give it time, and you’ll stop noticing anything—except how smoothly your skirts lie!

]]> 52217 9 115 Fact The modern-day thong was probably introduced in 1939, when New York City mayor LaGuardia decreed that exotic dancers cover up for the World’s Fair.
