Love the stuff but would never wear it in public. In some ways like that I'm a total prude. I don't like strangers seeing all that much of me. For some reason wearing clothing equivalent to a bathing suit it only appropriate where you'd wear a bathing suit or in the bedroom (or where ever you're having sex hehe). I wouldn't judge a girl for wearing it in public, but it would make me wonder if they're just self confident and want to wear it or if they're desperate for attention, which is just lame.
*edit* And as for the underwear, it looks hot, but some of them look like you'd get a full frontal wedgie, not very comfortable. I guess I'll admit I'm a fan of boy shorts or similar styles coz they're so comfy. Otherwise I'll go without underwear. I do own a full drawer full of thongs, but I find they're more pretty to look at and I don't wear them as often as I should. I love the American Eagle boyfriefs, not quite shorts, which I prefer. If I wear baggy jeans like back in highschool days (I used to wear a pair of my boyfriends) I'd just wear boxers underneath. My apologies for going off topic, I have a tendancy to ramble
