[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember how my mom would force me to wear bikinis in elementary school even though I didn’t want to and felt uncomfortable. Please make sure your daughter feels comfortable in whatever swimwear she wears. I still recall the uncomfortableness of essentially being sexualized at a young age. [/quote]

Oh the drama. Did she put you in bras and heels and paraded you in front of pedophiles? 
She thought you would be more comfortable (as bikinis are always more comfortable than one piece… except for water sports).[/quote]
So you force your kids to wear what you want? Great parenting.[/quote]

No, they can choose within reason. I just can’t stand the “sexualizing” little girls posters. You people are ridiculous.[/quote]
How do you presume to speak for the experience the PP may have had?[/quote]

I’m the PP who referred to as being sexualized here. The bikinis I had to wear were way skimpier than the young girls bikinis from Nordstrom’s people were sharing links to. They were string bikinis. My mom didn’t want me wearing them for comfort. She wanted me to wear them to “look cool,” even though I was much more comfortable in one pieces. I’m not scarred but I was very uncomfortable wearing it. The only point I was trying to make was that a 3rd grader probably has a good idea of what swimsuits they want to wear to feel both fashionable and comfortable enough to splash around with friends. Would you as an adult want someone to make you wear a bikini in a public setting when you’d feel most comfortable in a one-piece?[/quote]

I'm not sure what the point of your posts are - [b]no one here is saying they are forcing their child to wear bikinis. In fact, most posters are saying they want their kids to be comfortable [/b]and wear what they want to wear and what makes them happy. [/quote]
