Quick Glance: Florida Insurers Mark First Profits in Seven Years in 2023, New Report Reveals

thespinoff.co.nz/society/20-01-2024/why-is-every-bikini-bottom-a-thong-now
Quick Glance: Why Has Every Bikini Bottom Turned into a Thong?

- Bikini tops have remained mostly unchanged, while bottoms have evolved, with even one-pieces now being more revealing. The shift towards thongs reflects a broader trend of butt appreciation/sexualization.
- The decision to embrace or reject the thong trend raises complex questions about body image and societal norms. The author contemplates whether to adapt to the new trend and the implications it has on personal grooming.
- Discovering a tankini with classic bottoms offers a solution to the dilemma of embracing the thong trend. The author reflects on the societal pressure to bare it all and finds solace in a more traditional swimwear option.
