I guess that they ask for it by dressing that way in the work place, but any insinuation that a woman can't excel without being sexy makes me gag too Dotsie!

Well, just kill me. I think that the pretty, flowered thong slightly sticking out of the lower pants is cute. Okay, I wouldn't wear it because the gagging heard would cover the cuteness but if it's not too low, I think it's cute. That's because I don't have any kids of that age that might wear them. So, beat me up! Just kidding but not about it being cute. But, not in the work place. Good grief, no!

P.S.: How did we go from being betrayed to thong underwear?

Dianne , that's what I love about this forum. You never know where a thread will end up.

Dianne, you are working on giving me a younger mindset. I don't know if I want it though. All I can think about is how uncomfortable that must be, and if the girls are embarrased, or proud.

I thought the same thing too...thread...thong...betrayal.

Sometimes my daughter leans over and I see her cute little thong with roses or bows on it and I think it's cute. She doesn't let it "hang out" though.

Well girls, my friend Sandy tried the thong thing awhie ago and it dissappeared, she never was able to locate the darn thing...chubby cheeks you see....Beware Danger Zone!!!

i have a 19 yr old girl...she and her friends have the thong showing above the back of their jeans...it is kinda cute and frankly, if the fashion had been such when i had a cute bod, i'd've worn it like that too...

but i digress with a marriage question

for about the last two years, life has become increasingly more exciting for me as the kids are more grown and independent (12, 19 and 20)...
i've been able to concentrate more and more on my writing and other creative outlets...it's been fun...
the problem is my husband...he seems more and more content to just "be"...he recently replaced his motorcycle with a pretty hot number and he does ride now and then but other than that he just hangs around, no other interests, no hobbies...to get him to go anywhere or do anything is a chore and, even though he has a good time, it's not worth the effort to get him going...even the kids have resigned themselves to not asking him for anything because you can't get a straight answer from him and it's just too much work to get him out of the house...
it bothers me that it doesn't bother me more to leave him behind more and more...more than that is that i've started to feel lonely...i thorougly enjoy my time with the kids and am glad they want to hang out with me given their ages, but i'd really like to hang out with my husband...i'm lonely for him...sigh...

When hes hanging out at home, what is he doing. Is he on the computer? If not maybe just leave him be, hes home not out running around, drinking or porn surfing. Is he feeling alright? Maybe his job has him stressed. Just let him know you love him and miss him being with you.
