No string g-string

Is it worth wearing?

Summary:  Shibue Couture sells underwear that does not have a string and for all practical purposes eliminates VPL.  I am not convinced that it is something that you need unless you are wearing an outfit that leaves you going commando as the only option.
Photo of a woman wearing a strapless gstringI am one of those people who believe that the no-VPL (visible panty line) myth has been created by the same lingerie companies who first created panties and then want you to buy all kinds of paraphernalia to eliminate VPL.

There are several reasons why I think that we make a big deal out of what I think is a non-issue. 

  • Most people have better things to do than to investigate if you are wearing panties.
  • We almost always assume that women are wearing their underwear, and if there is some evidence of it or its absence, no one cares or is impressed.
  • Except for some very rare cases, pantylines are not easily visible.
  • In a world in which whaletail (letting your underwear show above your jeans) is a mainstream fashion statement and is now widely accepted, VPL has become irrelevant.

So does the Shibue Couture strapless gstring is a solution looking for a problem?  Like the backless lingerie, at least that is what I think.  Do you really want to wear self-adhesive panties for what is already a dying problem (VPL) and thongs do a great job.  The only situations where I I think it makes sense is when you are one of these really modest woman and do not want to expose your privates at a spa or on the beach or a tanning salon.
