Seems like "granny panties" are making a comeback and thongs are on the way out.

According to the New York Times, thong sales have gone down 7% over the past year, and sales of larger types of women's underwear are up 17%.

There are three theories on why underwear trends are shifting to bigger options:

  1. They are more comfortable.
  2. They can be more flattering on some women. By covering up areas you feel insecure about, they could actually make them feel sexier.
  3. They make a feminist statement.

So if your woman comes home and tosses out all here thongs, don't be alarmed, I warned you.
