Barbara (L) and Jenna Bush, the daughters of U.S. President George W Bush, walk together from the Darnall Army Community Hospital in Fort Hood, Texas, April 11, 2004 after President Bush (news - web sites) and members of his family visited with soldiers wounded in Iraq (news - web sites). Bush awarded 10 purple hearts to troops recovering in the hospital, after attending an Easter Sunday Church service at a chapel within the army base in central Texas.

Which one?

Monica's mighty ass with her black thongstrap showing. The tensile strength of that elastic was certainly tested that day, dear God. Her thong, tossed on the floor after a day's use, must look like Goerring's Sam Brown belt.

LMAO! of course!!HOWLIN called him on his kerryesque church garb! oh look at us sitting around mooning for the jerk, wishing he was still here with us!

[xsmommy]

would you STOP with the monica crap! Lord, you are going to have ME needing viagra! ; )

[LisaMalia]

Yes, how ironic that his intention was to irritate the heck out of us, and all he did was give us so much to laugh about. Talk about poetic justice!!!!!

[VRWCmember]

just exactly what i was thinking, the woman in the pic he posted, not only looks to be late 20s, but she clearly has a bob and not waist length hair.

Not to mention a wedding ring.

Your question also illustrates beautifully my Rules for Daughters, the part where they should keep their underpants on most of the time when out and about, this is an exception to that rule.

I also question this subject's (the female's, that is) grooming habits, because, like I said, she was wearing her pants so low that, well, I'm sure you get the picture. What are the modern rules pertaining to that?

[xsmommy]

aren't you the observant one, vast. and here you are methodically plodding through this most wonderful thread!

If Howlin is right about Demetrius Slaughter being a cross-dresser, he may have already discovered these.

I looked up from my resting spot, and this woman's pants were rather low cut for her size, and glARing from atop the pants was the elastic band of thong underwear. It was so shocking that I could not help but laugh aloud, even though I was sitting alone. I did a double-take, and sure-nuff, the woman was wearing what I thought.

The same thing happened to me not so very long ago. My wife, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and I were brunching at a restaurant in an upscale hotel on the Boston waterfront. At a nearby table, a woman was wearing low-cut attire which revealed a black thong strap that had migrated up to mid-kidney levels. Of course my brother-in-law and I wink-wink-nudged-nudged each other and couldn't stop looking, because men are like that. But I don't see how such a thing could be comfortable for that woman to wear---not when it rides up that high.

Ouchy!

Given these low-cut pants, this must be the common thing now amongst women. I guess gone forever are the days of the furry yield sign.

all things considered, it really should not be visible to the casual observer, as to whether one waxes or not.

"Thong underwear does not belong on women over a size 8 unless they are taller than 5/7' and work out regularly doing buns exercises with great regularity."

Can't imagine that anything more than the waistband would be visible otherwise anyway, and even that would probably roll up to the size of 4-ply knitting yarn on wimmen like petitfour saw at Sam's, which begs the question...why bother?

I concur. In a strip joint, or a night club where you're trying to attract someone, sure---show it off---advertise. But at a Dunkin' Donuts or a Bob's Big Boy or a motorcycle riding course or in church? Naw.

[xsmommy]

dang. not the Dunkin Donuts...; )?

Don't forget to have a section dedicated to "Days of the Week" underpants! Remember those?

Which brings to mind some of my all-time-favorite "Married . . . With Children" dialogue (hey Bacon, this is done from memory - does it sound right?):

Al: Oh, Peg, it was horrible. Eighteen straight hours of shoe-selling mayhem. You know, when you're a rookie shoe salesman, they teach you that when you've got a fat one in the chair, never look up. I looked up, Peg. I saw underwear. It said "Saturday."

Peg: So what?

Al: Today's Wednesday!

Fancy lingerie comes in all sizes, including double-wide, Mack truck, eighteen-wheeler, and Greyhound bus.

I grew up in New Orleans, where, during Mardi Gras, nobody turns a hair when we see said underwear being worn in public by extremely large men!

So, my theory is that the intended audience for the more extreme garments is cross-dressers, and unfortunate women who don't realize how they look.

Not that I have anything against lacy or pretty or feminine underwear on larger women (I am one myself!), but there is a limit, and I will just leave it at that. Monica's thong visible in public crosses that limit.

[Xenalyte]

How did you refrain from snapping it? I couldn't have.
