Moms in Bikinis

[Anonymous]

I have a mix of friends around this age and we all wear what we want to, for me that’s a low cut one piece or a Tankini.

Other friends wear more covered up one pieces and other friends wear standard bikinis. Who cares?

I take my kids to community pools and almost always wear a bikini. Not skimpy or anything…just a comfortable two piece with a full coverage bottom. One pieces just don’t look right on me (flatchested, tall, size 4 on top and 8 on the bottom) and it’s hard to find one to suit my (average looking) body. I also find it easier to maneuver the locker room wet bathing suit changes with a two piece.

Am I offending people by wearing a bikini? Most moms of all shapes and sizes seem to be wearing one pieces. I’ve never viewed bikinis as sexy (well except for those stringy or Brazilian cut ones).

What say you?

I say please don't. Yes, you are offending people by wearing a bikini.

I only wear a 1-piece and don’t understand this at all.

You are just sad

I have never worn a bikini in my life, but YOU are sad for your weird judgment of others (which is likely just festering jealousy)

Many high end moms have mommy makeovers , lipo, do pilates etc so it's to showcase the care and work they do.

Uptight judgey women on DCUM won't like it, but in the pools I got to, full of immigrants and non-white people of all origins, bikinis are the norm. When I go to white private pools in Bethesda, the women tend to wear one pieces.

Just be yourself. I prefer bikinis because I'm slender with a long torso and one pieces are generally for people with larger chests but shorter torsos.

I don’t think this is true at all! My large chest is much better supported by a bikini top.

+1 I am a 34H, size 4 -6 in most clothes. I look odd in most one pieces.

Thank goodness for your huge boobs! I love them…

DH does too.

I don’t dresss for their gaze.

Also I adore folks that are free in themselves. Whatever makes YOU comfy is gorgeous.

I agree. Rick the hell out of it, girl!

You are probably less offensive to them than I am. I burn so easily that I wear a one piece with a long sleeve rash guard over it and often swim shorts with it as well. I’m sure the other moms think I have major body issues but I just can’t be in the sun at all.

Being a mom doesn't matter. What defines if you should wear a bikini or a one piece is your stomach and overall bodyfat. Must be lean enough to pull it off.

I disagree. You need to be confident and comfortable.

Exactly. Haters gonna hate so I choose my own comfort over what some Karen is going to say at the pool.
