A G-String, also known as a Thong is a type of underwear with just a narrow piece of cloth covering the genitals and a string in the behind. The G-String is a favourite today for both women and men…things are getting really sexy here…lol!

So, out of interest, does anyone know the origins of this women’s favourite underwear The G-String or Thong.


This is probably not the kind of stuff we normally talk about here, sexy stuff we don’t talk openly about these issues in Zimbabwe. But we are in the Western World so we can be excused. After all so many things are happening here in the diaspora that people will not even think of back home.

So, could the G-String or Thong have been inspired by the Native people from places like Africa and South America?
Long back our ancestors used to have a designer piece of loincloth covering the genital areas, with just a piece of string in the behind (I think it’s called Nhembe in Shona and G-String these days).

I believe this is a case of our ancestors invention and designs influencing dressing in our modern day lives.
