Wrong for a Thong? 10 Ways to Tell if Your Booty Makes the Cut

We believe that every woman reserves the right to feel great in a thong swimsuit if that’s what she really wants to wear. If you’re feeling confident and ready to rock out with your buns out, go for it! However, if you’re like many of us, you’re not so sure if your booty makes the cut and is actually worthy of being bared for all to see in a thong. Even supermodels have to think twice before letting it all hang out—as the unquestionably gorgeous Cindy Crawford has said, “I have cellulite. I admit it. But sometimes I just say, ‘Screw it, I am going to wear a bikini.’” So if you find yourself on the fence as to whether or not you’re wrong for a thong swimsuit, these tips will help you determine if you and your booty are ready.

1. You Pass the Pencil Test

You want your booty high and perky when you wear a thong, so try the pencil test before you slip one on. Place a pencil horizontally where your tush meets the top of your thigh (you know the fold we’re talking about). If it falls to the floor, you’re thong-ready, my dear. If it sticks in said fold, you might want to do a few squats to tighten things up.

2. You’re Mistaken for J-Lo

If people come up behind you and say, “Excuse me Ms. Lopez? May I have your autograph?” you’re definitely ready to rock the thong swimsuit.

3. Your G-String Disappears

If you try on your thong and your bum completely envelops your g-string, you should be less concerned with how to wear thongs and more occupied with securing a bit more coverage for the beach.

4. The Sound of Applause

Have you ever turned to realize that the sound of applause following you as you jog along the beach is actually that of your butt cheeks smacking together? We haven’t either, ahem, but for someone who does, you need a bit more bum support.

5. Drop it Like It’s Hot

If you can take it to the floor and bring it back up again (work!), go ahead and reach for that thong.

6. Catcalls

If you hear a chorus of “Can I get some fries with that shake?” each time you walk by a construction site (and you’re secretly proud of it), you are a solid thong candidate.

7. No Booty

If you’ve got little to no junk in your trunk, take your cue from Miley Cyrus and flaunt what your mami gave you anyway.

8. Twerk It

Are you one of those lovely ladies who will take any opportunity to show off your twerking skills? If so, you must wear a thong.

9. Blinded by the Light

For us paler skinned girls, our cheeks haven’t seen the sun in a while so we’re considering more rear coverage so other beachgoers aren’t blinded by the glare. We’re just being courteous here, really.

10. Every Booty

Ultimately, there are no real rules on how to wear thongs. If you wear it proudly, no matter what size or shape, your booty makes the cut. So love your body and strut your stuff if you want to!
