Getting parents to let you wear a thong may seem like a mission impossible, but with the right preparation and the right strategy, you will have a much better chance of persuading them. Coming up with a persuasive argument will go a long way in getting them to trust you and agree with you.
Steps
Part 1 of 3: Prepare the Argument
Step 1. Plan the strategy you will use
To get a good result, it is good to leverage both the more reasonable side of one's parents and the emotional one. You have to attack on both sides to make sure you have an accurate argument. This will show that you have thought about it well and that it matters to you.
- Almost everyone makes decisions by mixing reason and feeling. They are two interconnected spheres, which influence each other continuously. This is why when you try to persuade someone you always have to leverage both.
- When planning your strategy, put everything in black and white to better evaluate how to leverage their rationality. Basically, what do your parents react to logically? Then, list anything that might leverage their emotions. What are their weaknesses? Are they particularly proud? Which emotional states do they tend to shy away from? You should consider all of these aspects.
- Observe your parents for some time. This will help you analyze their reactions, but it will also help you get a better idea of what you can say and what topics to avoid.
Step 2. Define why you want to wear the thong
For your strategy to be effective, you absolutely must leverage your parents' rationality. A coherent argument must include persuasive explanations. List 5-6 logical reasons why you want to wear the thong.
- The thong does not show the sign of the underwear. The main benefit is therefore to avoid drawing attention to your side B. Surely your parents will agree.
- The thong lasts longer. Since this garment is made with less fabric, it reshapes better than classic briefs. If you get fat or lose weight, you will hardly be forced to buy new underwear, so you will save money.
- The thong is cooler in hot weather. It is light and aids in breathing. Avoiding sweating will also prevent rashes or blemishes.
Step 3. Show that you are responsible and able to make mature decisions, in this way your argument will gain credibility
Start showing yourself responsible well in advance, well before explaining your argument, so you won't arouse suspicion.
- If you need to help around the house or do your homework, get to work right away without waiting for someone to ask you.
- Save instead of spending on frivolity.
- Don't stay out late or come home drunk.
Step 4. Prepare to pay
Take control of the situation by offering to buy thongs. This shows that you have considered your decision well, that it is not impulsive. It is also a great opportunity to show that you are capable of saving.
Step 5. Practice the argument
To be convincing, you need to have a confident approach when talking to your parents. One of the most effective ways to gain confidence is to practice what you are going to say so you don't get stuck or forget the argument. Imagine yours are there as you prepare.
- Read your notes aloud in front of the mirror, that way you'll be well prepared when standing in front of your parents.
- Make sure you take breaks and breathe. While practicing you have to focus everything on naturalness, so as not to seem like you are parrot repeating.
- Keep practicing until you are ready to talk to your parents in a calm, composed voice. You will only be ready to convince them once you feel confident in what you have to say.
Step 6. Start the conversation
Once you feel ready to speak, you will need to consider a few factors. To get started, make sure your parents are in a good mood. Don't be pushy when asking and be polite. Choose a time that is good for everyone, preferably on the weekend, when it is more difficult for them to be stressed.
Part 2 of 3: Convince them
Step 1. Keep your notes handy
You probably won't need them because you've been practicing, but you should have them available in case you forget something and feel the need to catch up on ideas. You can hide them in your pocket or other discreet place.
Step 2. Begin calmly
First explain that you have thought about making a change and that you want to ask them for permission to make it. Ask them to let you elaborate on the discussion - they can ask you questions when you're done. Try to control the progress of the conversation as much as possible. The more you are interrupted, the easier it will be to get confused and forget what you have to say.
Step 3. Crack the list of your logical reasons
Gradually explain the reasons why you want to wear the thong and why you believe they should support you in this decision, whether it is to hide the marks of the panties, to be more comfortable, to prevent pimples and so on.
- Try to list all the reasons without getting interrupted, but be polite if they stop you.
- If they oppose it, offer to share sources that support your reasons, so they will know that you are not making excuses.
- If other reasons come to mind as you talk to them, you're free to improvise. Don't think you have to stick exclusively to your notes.
Step 4. Leverage their emotions
Once you have finished working out the logical reasons, move on to the more emotional side. According to some studies, arguments that leverage emotions can be quite effective. Remind them that you are growing up, that you are old enough to decide what to wear.
Step 5. Invite them to ask you questions
They may have, so be prepared for this eventuality. If they don't have any, encourage them to do it anyway. Accept all questions and answer them as best you can. If someone gets you into trouble, offer to give an answer after doing some research or thinking about it.
- They may ask you why you care about wearing the thong, why you think you are ready to use it, or why you think they should agree with you.
- They might ask you questions about guys. What if they consider you a sex object? Why are you trying to show off? You better have some answers ready, you never know.
Step 6. Give them time to talk or think about it
They may not give you an answer right away. Your parents should have some time to discuss this privately and make a decision. They will be able to consider what questions to ask or reflect on your argument.
Part 3 of 3: Reacting to Their Response
Step 1. Be prepared for any response
Don't assume you know what they will say. You need to be prepared for the eventuality that they say no to you or drag the argument over. You should work out possible solutions to these perspectives, even if they do not arise.
Step 2. React calmly
Regardless of the answer, it's important to react in a calm and composed way. They need to see that you are mature enough to make independent decisions. If they say no at first, it is possible that in the future they will be more likely to say yes precisely because on this occasion you reacted with maturity.
- If they immediately say no, don't rush to lock yourself in your room and slam the door or raise your voice. Hear their reasons or propose to discuss them later. It is essential to react respectfully, because it is possible for them to change their mind.
- If you get agitated, breathe. If your body becomes stiff, relax. If you don't get the desired result and the tension is cut with a knife, make a joke. Humor is a very effective weapon for defusing a tense situation.
Step 3. Have them tell you the reason for their refusal
If they still aren't convinced, ask why. Maybe you could calm them down or argue their objections. If they don't want to talk about it anymore, at least you will know what they think and you can take it into account in the future.
Step 4. If they don't seem willing to reconsider, offer to compromise
You might suggest talking about it later and showing that you are responsible in the meantime. You may come to an agreement, for example you will start using the thong from a certain age. Go to meet them asking what they prefer.
- Try to understand what you have in common and proceed accordingly. You want to be considered mature and your parents want to stimulate your maturation, don't they? This is a great starting point for opening negotiations.
- Waiting for everyone to calm down will facilitate the negotiation. In this conversation, you must absolutely avoid bringing up too many emotions, instead stick to facts and needs. Talk honestly about your goals and offer to compromise to please them, but at the same time get what you want.
Step 5. Don't talk about it anymore
If no strategy works, accept it and move on. Don't keep begging or pestering your parents, or you will miss any opportunity to convince them later and their mood will suffer. Putting the issue aside gracefully will allow you to keep their respect for you intact.
Advice
- To cut the bull's head you could buy and wear a thong unbeknownst to your parents. If they find out, you can legitimately defend yourself by saying that you decide what to wear and that you bought it with your money.
- Don't lose your temper when you try to convince them: it will be counterproductive.
- If they interrupt you as you try to work out your reasons, invite them to be patient.
- Always remember not to pester them.
- Try wearing a Brazilian or thong instead of a thong. These two garments better cover the private parts, except the buttocks, so the effect is similar (the Brazilian covers a little more than the thong).
Warnings
- Be reasonable. Yours will probably allow you to wear a simple and practical thong, not a sheer lace model with the word "sexy" on it.
- Never say you want a thong because it's sexy - you won't get far.
- Do not complain. If this is your first time making such a request, they will probably be a little shocked. Give them some time to get used to the idea.
