qfnol31 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 What should a woman cover to be modest? If only her are***s and cheeks, then very much is modest. If more, how much would you suggest? I'll bite and have some fun. I'm not sure how much terminology is acceptable... I can put in the asterisked letters if needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the deleted image, the woman's breasts were well covered. There was some "cleavage" (in that you could see some of the outline of the inside of the breasts), but it was by no means a nipple cover with strings. It also appeared that she was wearing bottoms that actually covered her bottom. AND she had a sarong. I'm not saying we should draw a line on the breasts and decide anything less is immodest, I'm just saying that not all two-pieces are unacceptable. I don't think there is a swimsuit on the market that, if less than a "shelf bra" type top, is going to hide every part of a woman's breasts. And even if they do, there they are. I think men should have to wear tube tops over their pecks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IcePrincessKRS Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Well, having been to the beach this past weekend I can tell you ol' Kim's suit was very modest for a bikini. Her breasts were covered more than the majorty of the women I saw on the beach and she had a coverup (which she was obviously adjusting in the removed photo) to give more coverage to her butt and thighs. Comparatively speaking, she was more modest than the average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franciscanheart Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 BTW, I see women dressed with only slight more coverage EVERY SINGLE DAY. Why? Because they're runners. I see sweaty, muscular men in the exact same gear, minus the top. EVERY SINGLE DAY. Oddly enough, I have never once seen anyone on phatmass take issue with the things runners wear... or rather, don't wear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
