They may not be for everybody (and we do mean every body), but let's face it: thongs are everywhere these days.

If you assumed the thong was made popular by strippers and freaky girls, think again...or just think of strippers and freaky girls. Our research team has discovered that the thong was all the rage in the 1940's, initially brought to the mainstream by grade-school boys who received 'atomic wedgies' and delighted in the aftermath. Sure there was guilt. And shame. But while this woeful chapter of American history is behind us (did we say that?), the fashion legacy lives on.

As Mr. Happy Crack says, "Is there anything wrong with my face on your thong?"
