For quite some time I was a member of the Men's Thong Forum. At a certain moment I was involved in 5 or 6 other and similar forums and the MTF slowly disappeared from my radar. A few days ago I was trying to clean up my bookmarks and I found this forum alive and kicking. I already found out that the forum was restarted. Today I could login for the first time so it is time for an introduction.
My name is Wim and was born in the Netherlands, in The Hague to be precise. The Hague is bordering the North Sea and has very nice beaches. That is why the beach is my second habitat. When I was around 15, I saw a German movie around 1960, "Liane, the jungle goddess". In it Hardy Kruger takes a bush shower in a G-string. That scene is cut by the puritan Americans but for me it was enough to try to make a string. And it worked.

Around 1980 the thongs and G-strings became popular so I bought a few and wore them at the beaches of St Tropez. Around 1990 I started a relationship with an Italian lady who was strictly against thongs so wearing skimpy suits petered out. Around 2000, through the Internet, my interest in strings was revived and I started to wear them in secrecy. The relationship went sour so in 2005 we split up and I was free to do what I liked. I went to the beaches in strings and enjoyed the feeling of freedom it gives.
Also through the Internet, I found my American penpal 1963 and we reconnected. After a few visits we married and since 2010 I'm living in the USA. My wife likes strings so that is not a problem anymore. I live in Allentown, PA and the nearest beach is Sandy Hook. There the attitude is very liberal and there is even a small nude beach. Walking around in a thong is no problem but I try to be somewhat conservative around families. There are quiet stretches where I wear my very small G-strings without a problem. The only negative thing is the distance, about 2 hours by car where in Holland it took me 10 minutes by bike to get to the beach.
