BG45 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 [quote name='IgnatiusofLoyola' timestamp='1310248189' post='2265084'] Wearing a T-shirt for men is good. Women don't necessarily want to look at your beer gut--or the opposite--your scrawny chest. As for the bottoms, I prefer loose swim shorts on men--and not too short. Speedos make me embarrassed. If a guy feels a need to "show his stuff" in a tight bathing suit, I figure he has his underwear stuffed in there, too, to hide his "shortcomings." [/quote] It depends on if I'm alone or not as to whether I wear a shirt, because I am horribly ashamed of my stomach hanging everywhere. My trunks are actually longer shorts than my shorts are!

XIX Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Get a one piece and wear some cheap mesh shorts over it, would be my personal recommendation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tinytherese Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 [quote name='JoyfulLife' timestamp='1310256724' post='2265114'] Those skirt bathing suits look just like a nighty for hubby in the bedroom. And who would wear that in public? This boggles my mind...

I'm sorry if that offends anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissyP89 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) [quote name='ThePenciledOne' timestamp='1310258756' post='2265124'] question to add on to this thread.... Is the answer to Modesty really only putting more clothes on? Lots of tones of Puritanicalism, I feel like are running through this thread.... [/quote] That said, I will never wear a bikini. I wore a tankini when I was young, and then switched to a one piece when I hit puberty. 1) I'll never understand how so many women have flat stomachs. I've never had one, even when I was a kid. And I'm barely 100 lbs. 2) I don't feel comfortable exposing so much skin. 3) I want to protect men. [i]At the same time[/i], I know tons of men who are aroused by women in a one piece. That scares me. I feel dirty when I go to the beach, and I shouldn't have to -- especially given I make it a point to be modest. The sad truth is that a lot of men are going to lust after us no matter what we wear. Edited July 10, 2011 by MissyP89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] It doesn't look like one on, though. I fail to see how one pieces look like nighties. Sometimes I do wish they provided more leg coverage, but the ones I buy have full coverage of the torso and chest. They are also full coverage brief like bottoms. Nighties are much more skimpy and often have lace and mesh. They are see through whereas the suit I wear are not.

Lil Red Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 [quote name='MaterMisericordiae' timestamp='1310267160' post='2265152'] I try not to be so scrupulous about these things. Bikinis are one thing, but I would much rather see more women in a modest one piece. It doesn't need to be taken to the extreme unless the individual person prefers to wear a body suit.

[/quote] The fact that it's a black swimsuit definitely helps, but there are slenderizing panels sewn into the swimdress. In fact, in the torso, there's a layer of mesh next to the skin that acts as a kind of girdle, but it's very comfortable. It just makes a bit difficult to get back on once the swimsuit is wet.

MissyP89 Posted July 10, 2011 Share Posted July 10, 2011 (edited) Red...that link doesn't work. If you click it and then read the URL really closely, you'll notice it says "blue coagulated milk sauce." The fil-ter messed it up! :: I think I almost peed my pantaloons laughing.
