00:00How do you think your friends would feel if they found out you were wearing a thong?
00:06Oh my god.
00:11Hello, my name is Joe, and I am going to be wearing a thong today.
00:14So on a normal daily basis, I just wear either boxers or normal briefs.
00:20Just boxers. No boxer briefs.
00:23I have actually worn a thong before in the early 2000s.
00:27The thong was prevalent in, I would definitely say, the club scene.
00:33I mean, you saw that thong, thong, thong, thong, thong, quite a many times on the dance floor.
00:39So that was my first introduction to the thong.
00:41And of course, I had to go and see what all this rage was about.
00:44No crazy patterns. So far, this doesn't seem like it's going to be a huge chow.
00:48Okay. No, that's not comfortable. Or sanitary.
00:54What? Oh, god.
00:56I mean, this is basically my skin color under my clothes, so I think I'm going to go bold.
01:00This is the one.
01:01This is just intimidating already. I feel like my butt's going to eat this.
01:05I'm going to go with black because it's New York.
01:07And in case I end up like at an art opening or something and my pants come off,
01:13then at least I'll still be dressed in black.
01:17They're not that bad guys.
01:20They look wearable.
01:22Live outside of your comfort zone.
01:24And that's really why I signed up for this.
01:26I thought this would be really funny and interesting.
01:28But at the same time, you know, a little daring.
01:31All right.
01:32Follow me for a day as I try a thong.
01:37Just popped out the shower.
01:40About to do this challenge.
01:42You feel me going on set today?
01:44Let's see how it'll work out.
01:46So I got it on.
01:50It's pretty bad.
01:52It's pretty bad.
01:52That everything up front, oh man, super secure.
01:56It's all in one place.
01:58There's no motion.
02:00No discomfort there.
02:02You know, it's just different.
02:04And the other half, the back half, I don't know.
02:09I'm just going to have to get used to it.
02:10Onward.
02:11Damn.
02:11Where is that pencil that I had it?
02:14I had it right here.
02:14I don't know where it went.
02:16Oh.
02:17Oh, hi there.
02:18I was just looking for something under my desk.
02:20Sorry.
02:22Yeah.
02:23I just got out of the shower, getting ready to go to work.
02:25Put on the thong and it's fucking uncomfortable.
02:29Okay.
02:29Can I just say that?
02:30It's not comfortable.
02:31Good morning.
02:32Day one of the thong challenge.
02:34I'm at the gym, as I typically am in the morning, and threw on the bad boy or bad girl,
02:41whichever
02:41way you look at it, and it feels all right.
02:45I mean, right now, sitting on this tiny bike seat with it in there, it doesn't bother me.
02:53I definitely feel it, but it's not cumbersome or anything.
02:58We'll see what happens later on today.
02:59Stay tuned.
03:02Mid-afternoon.
03:05There's no way out of this.
03:07It hasn't gotten better.
03:09And I'm a silver linings type of person, but it's not great.
03:14Seated, standing, walking, stretching.
03:18Not comfortable.
03:21Don't worry.
03:25It's a weird feeling.
03:27It's a weird feeling in my pants.
03:29So thong day, sweating, winter day.
03:34It's a little weird.
03:35Not going to lie.
03:36Like, I'm going to remember this view my first time out here, and I'm going to know I had
03:44a thong on that day.
03:46Shout out whoever wears these and really wears them.
03:50Because it's pretty, it's just not my thing.
03:56I thought this wasn't really going to be a challenge at all, but it's actually, uh, it's actually
04:01like a whole new, whole new thing.
04:03So why do, why do men really wear thongs?
04:06They wear it for like sexual liberation?
04:09Uh, liberation.
04:10Maybe they like the feel of it.
04:12The feel of it.
04:13Like the feel of it.
04:13Okay.
04:14I get it.
04:14I get it.
04:15I get it.
04:16Maybe I'll, maybe I'll turn it into a thong guy.
04:19What could go thong?
04:22Christina, right now, I'm rocking a thong.
04:24I'm wearing one too right now.
04:25It's like we're twins.
04:26We're matching.
04:27And I don't feel it.
04:28It feels like you're not wearing underwear.
04:29I think you have to reinvest in your thong.
04:32Maybe you go for some lace next time.
04:34Maybe the men's thongs are thicker.
04:40Hey, Bear, did you make dessert?
04:42No, why?
04:43You want to?
04:44No, um, I actually got dessert earlier today.
04:49You want to see it?
04:50Yeah.
04:57So, it's the end of the day.
05:00And, uh, I made it through the challenge.
05:05My, yeah, everything's intact.
05:10Uh, I don't think I need to wear another thong.
05:17Anytime soon.
05:18I think the moral of the story for me is, I'll try anything once.
05:23I don't need to wear thong, man thong underwear for the foreseeable future.
05:29I did it.
05:30I got through the, I got through thong day.
05:32Tea day.
05:33Went in there.
05:34Into battle.
05:36Scared.
05:38Alone.
05:39But you know what?
05:39I've come out.
05:41I'm going to say it.
05:41I'm a hero.
05:42No, don't, don't quote, you know, don't put that part in.
05:44I had an experience.
05:46It was different.
05:47So, just that alone.
05:49Mind expanded.
05:50That's cool.
05:51I'm not going to wear a thong again.
05:53Uh, no.
05:54So, one thing I learned from my day of thong is that I really value comfort in the undercarriage
06:02region.
06:03Um, yeah, I'm probably going to throw it away as soon as possible and, uh, never doing
06:10it again.
06:11Uh, thongs are not for me.
06:13Not for this guy.
06:14So, that's a wrap on my thong day challenge.
06:18Uh, it was fine.
06:20Am I going to run out and buy a bunch of thongs?
06:23Definitely not.
06:24But, what I did learn was wear something outside the box for your own personal style, whether
06:29that be out where everyone can see or under your undergarments.
06:34I mean, I'm proud of myself for trying something new.
06:37I encourage you to do so as well.
06:38It definitely felt a little risque, which is, uh, not such a bad thing.
06:44So, uh, who knows?
06:46G-string, I'm coming for ya.
06:48No, I'm not.
