Thongs

Hello everybody

It's Wednesday so it's time for a new task. But first I want to show you one of the answers from last task. I liked it the most.



The worst work

And here is a new task for you. Read the text below and answer the questions:

G-String
The G-string or thong is probably the earliest form of clothing known to mankind. It originated in the warmer climates of sub-Saharan Africa where clothing was first worn almost 75,000 years ago. Many tribal peoples, like some of the Khoisan people of southern Africa, wore thongs for many centuries. These early pieces of clothes were made to fit the male genitalia.

The G-string was first developed for men by primitive peoples. However, in modern days, Western thongs are usually worn by females. They first became popular in South America in the 1970s. In Brazil, it was originally a style of swimsuit that had a rear area which became so narrow, that it would disappear between the buttocks.

The origin of the term "G-string" is not fully known. The term was first written about by Americans in the late 1800s. They described the loincloth of Philippine natives. Others say the term came from from the g-string on an instrument. The origin of the word "thong" is from the Old English thwong, which is a flexible leather cord.



Questions
1. Where can we find the first usage of thongs?
2. Was it originally a male or female clothing?
3. Is it true that thongs started to be popular in North America?
4. What is the origin of the word "thong"?

As always I am waiting till late Tuesday for the answers.

Have a nice week everybody.
