G strings, also known as thongs, string panties, or T-backs, are a type of undergarment worn by women and men that provides minimal coverage. They have a narrow strip of fabric that runs down the back, with strings or elastic bands connecting to the waistband. Other synonyms for G strings include cheeky panties, bikini thongs, V-string panties, and micro thongs. Despite being controversial and often viewed as uncomfortable, G strings have become a popular choice for those who desire a seamless look under form-fitting clothes or for lingerie purposes. However, it is important to remember to choose a comfortable and appropriate size to avoid discomfort or health problems.
