Men's Thong Forum

I see lots of posts on here about removing the hair down there, but if you're like me...  Maybe you just want it gone...  Period. 

I got laser hair removal in St. Louis when I still lived there and it has been fantastic!  At the time, the package I got was the "Male Grooming" package, but today most places just call it a Manzilian.  After about 8 years, I have no regrets and I've had minimal maintenance.  I do have a few stray hairs in a few spots but they are so easy to shave that it's not been an issue.  I plan on getting a touch-up soon in Dallas, but for me, it was easy, the techs were great and didn't give me hard time or make me feel uncomfortable at any time, and it was worth every penny.  And as a bonus, it's MUCH cheaper now than when I had it done.

TL;DR...  If you want it gone for good...  Pay someone to fire high powered lasers at it.  It's a little painful but not bad at all compared to what you might be imagining.

Jockey and Hanes used to sell men's thongs (mostly at K-Mart).  You could also buy them at Target for some time, although, I can't remember the brand.  For some reason, that is no longer a thing.  K-Mart obviously went belly-up and Target no longer offers them.  I think most men don't even know it's an option.  Mainstream media still advertises boxers as the underwear worn by most men and occasionally you'll see a cameo for briefs.  It's sad, but it is what it is I suppose.

I've gotten far less concerned about wearing thongs as I have gotten older.  I still wear thongs or g-strings 99% of the time and if someone notices today, then I'll shrug and brush it off.  A decade ago that was not the case.  I started MTF almost a decade ago because I felt alone.  I was worried I was going to get beat up and shamed in public if it was discovered that I was wearing a thong or g-string.  To-date, I've never had an issue.  I learned from my friends here that it doesn't matter.  I regret having to had to shut down the site 7 years ago, but I am so glad someone brought it back!

I digressed a bit there...  To bring it home, I think that to normalize men's thongs, they need to be made available in brick and mortar shops that aren't just specialty shops (like the only place I can buy thongs in-person in Dallas).  I think mainstream media and TV-shows, movies, etc. need to stop operating under the assumption that all adult men wear boxers...  Boxers suck.  I also think that it's important to showcase that more than just gay men wear "alternative" men's underwear.

Honestly, until those things change or we get really lucky on a random fashion week, we're going to remain the minority.  Thongs were invented by men for men, but that fact seems to have been lost in history...
