Why you all taking about your butts? I wear thongs in the summer. They're quick to slip on and pretty comfortable footwear.
If your thongs are touching your anus, you're wearing them wrong.
Or you've fallen victim to LA CHANCLA.

"Thong" can mean a type of sandal, also known as flip-flops, but it's also the name of a type of underwear or swimsuit bottom that's basically a string in the back.
I grew up calling flip flops "thongs", but as I got older, people were almost exclusively using that term for the underwear, so I switched terms to avoid confusion.
