My preteen daughter wants to wear thongs instead of knickers . My partner agrees wholeheartedly . Is there any harm in it ?
If I have a daughter she isn't going to be wearing thongs until she's 18, regardless of whether she could pay for them with her pocket money.
I dont understand the stigma against thongs, I've been wearing them since I was 14. Not to be sexy but so I don't have visible panty lines.
It isn't the thong itself, which is after all nothing more than a rag of cloth that I would have a problem with, but the lude lifestyle with which it is often associated. Still, I suppose wearing one wouldn't be that bad an outlet for rebellious feelings, but it wouldn't do my daughter any harm to wear decent underwear atleast until she is not a kid anymore.
I don't understand the stigma either. I suppose it's "Reaction Formation" against accepting your body.
I don't think the choice between thong and brief panties is particularly important. What MAY be of concern to you as a parent is if she, in her own words, wants "sexy knickers".
Let her wear them and take it for granted, so she can get focused on classes she will need for a successful career.

It depends on her motivation. I thought they were more comfortable when I was young. Til I discovered boy-shorts.
If you let your kid pressure you into doing things that you know are wrong for her, then you set a precedence that you may come to regret. YOU are the parent and it is your JOB to keep your child from choosing to do things she is not mature enough to decide for herself.
No. It's inappropriate for people that young to be wearing thongs. She should only wear them once she becomes an adult. If you let her do this, you are sexualising your daughter and you are further feeding into the sexualisation of females in general.
Are you a troll, or are you really just that stupid?
Yes, there is harm in it.
Its normal, nowdays thongs are like the grown up version of Whitey tighties
it not a bad thing. just make sure you talk to her. if you like, talk to me privately so I can ask a bit more. look up my profile for my email
Its a group thing and growing up thing. Most people to certain extent all have their group that they socialise in. This is what girls in this society identify with as maturity and independence.
My younger sis is always wanting to dress sexy when really she is too young to know what to do with the attention it will bring from boys. It's normal for her to want something like that because of what she sees others doing, but I don't think it's smart for her to do so until later.
