Cosmo: The Thong is Dead?!




Cosmopolitan has done it again with another sexy-fun-info article in their February 2010 issue. The article, "The Thong is Dead!" caught my interest because the booty short has become my personal "wonderbra." More than 99% of my personal underwear consist of this wonderful creation. From color, to lace, to little cute bows on the front the booty short has done wonders for little petite girls like myself with just enough to pull of this sexy cheeky look.

The thong has been around since the early 1970's, and only became popular over the decades. When the thong was released for the first time on the runway in Victioria's Secrets first ever lingerie show in 1995 the thong not only became popular, it became an epidemic. Designers like Juicy Couture and Frankie B built a new line of jeans that would show off the many colors and fabrics of the thong called, the "hipster" jean. The power of the thong hit first when Monica Lewinsky confessed she used hers to initiate her affair with former President Bill Clinton. From there the thong became the inspiration to R&B singer, Sisqo for his 1999 smash hit entitled, "The Thong Song." Finally, celebrity Britney Spears exposed her sparkly rhinestone thong during her performance at the 2000 MTV music awards, and from there the thong hit the peak of its career.




Then a new generation was born! One with less punch than the 80's lived up too, girls were no longer into sending the "casual sex" message that screamed thong, and designers were looking to bring class back to the mainstream. Then like most trends in fashion (while not forgotten) the thong was out of season, and a new wave of hottness hit the big screen, then the mainstream, and before you knew it the Victoria Secret thong section became more idol than active. The blame?...the peek-a-boo of underwear, The bootie short.




The bootie short became the tease that all men crave in the bedroom; leaving just enough for their imagination. While men are taking advantage of this luxury enjoying this new sexy eye candy; women in general are enjoying the comfort of wearing them, the fun in shopping for them, and the confidence it brings to their sex appeal. Lets face it! All of us wish we had the "lovely lady lumps" of fabulous Kim Kardashian, but it's just not going to happen ladies; not for all of us anyway. The undeniable feature this simple piece of material brings has made the booty short the most affordable, comfortable, and sweat free method to get ladies the butt they've always desired.



Sales for the cheekless thong have dropped big time, much lower than the hipster jean for which the thong inspired. Butt hugging boy short sales have doubled in stores like Eberjey and Cosabella. "Cosabella," a popular Hollywood lingerie brand also confirmed in the article that their boy short is their fastest selling item. The secret to boy short fame is that little seam running down the middle of our butts that highlight the curves of every womans, boot-tay. Women love the facelift this sexy undie gives their newly found booties, and without a doubt is the sexiest thing known to men and their subconscience. With that said why would'nt the thong be dead?! After all! :-\ ...who really enjoyed having that permanent wedgie?!...Yeah, exactly, not me either.
