Lets see some more of this ladies...

Thanks for the great photos thong fan

I think all the little boys should wear them

Bump. What a great topic!

So here's the deal. Women like wearing bun huggers but feel it necessary to complain about them. Guys wish they could wear bunhuggers and turn to triathlons to get a way with it.

Now for the sexiness quotient. There is absolutely nothing sexier than a bunhugging wearing xc runner in the final stages of a tough race. The heaving breathing, spitting, sweating, far away stare, etc., etc., is a lot like sex except that you can just stand there and take in all the sights and sounds without all the effort.

Even better than the final stages of a race is the finish chute!

I don't feel comfortable in buns. I like half split shorts. Obviously you can still see a lot in half splits but you still have the short to drape over your butt when the inevitable wedgie starts to happen. Being a sprinter I have a good sized bubble and I feel better covering it up.

If I could find a pair of buns that I felt comfortable in I'd wear them, but so far no luck.

I don't like them - I don't think they're practical for certain stretches or drills and also I just don't think they're comfortable. I just rather wear boyshorts or whatever you call them. Over here (UK) you have under-13s and under-11s running around in them and I'm not sure that's entirely right because they're just like underwear.

I don't really feel comfortable in them and I'd rather I felt comfortable and focussed on performance, but personally I think everyone should just wear what they like. I've even worn lycra down to the knee in races but that's been when I was scared of pulling a muscle as it was so cold! You don't see that many sprinters in them anyway

buns-not just for running wrote:

i used to play volleyball in college and we wore bunhuggers and long-sleeved shirts. i could never figure out how this uniform came to be and i suspect it's cause early volleyball coaches were men??

same here...

i actually got used to the buns and since everyone was wearing them at tournaments and games, i never thought twice about hanging out in them. but i never got used to long sleeves and hated them. today's vball uniforms make much more sense.

The women on my team say they're embarassed the first few meets, but then they love them so much more than split legs. Maybe for the same reason I love speed shorts so much. Delicious.

I don't like them, but wore them in college without too much complaining.

For a track race, I guess you wouldn't notice too much, but now that I'm grown up and do longer road races NO WAY would I wear bunnies. The sweat, the irritation, the potential infection... I like split shorts with no undies. They are airy and comfy and still sexy.

It's the most unobstructive for girls and women. Jen Stucynski wears the best buns.

"Unobstructive?" What does that mean? Do shorts obstruct something on a woman's body but not on a man's? If we're going purely for unobstruction, then shouldn't men wear skirts with nothing underneath?

Don\'t be a Purtian prude. European style is the most flattering for girls. Think how much more popular womens football and womens basketball would be if they started wearing spandex outfits like the Australian Womens Basketball team and womens indoor volleyball does. Maybe womens soccer would still be in busines, they went bankrupt. Womens indoor volleyball should go back to bunhuggers like they used to wear before the dykes took over the political positions.

Fernanda Keller is also the name of a transvestite. Makes for an interesting triathlete/shemale combo on an image search on google. Who knew?

If your team wears the buns the attendance and TV ratings goes up. Not just for girls. Mens swimming, water polo, triathlon, as well.

molly wears buns in hot weather, at usa\'s in indy the past 2 years she wore the buns. molly has got a great ass !

I don't see what's so great about them. I wore them my freshman year while competing for Arkansas in cross, and got a wedgie 800 meters into every race. I started thinking about how uncomfortable I was in these things and did not think about passing other runners. I wore split shorts during track season and raced much better (probably because I was comfortable). I never raced in buns again after that.

I would wear them except they wouldn't cover my cock.

can you tell us more about the wedgie. pictures ?
