[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks for all the feedback. I am glad to know there are others who feel uncomfortable like me in a bikini.

I understand it is me who needs to change or adapt. I want to be just like other women who are in a bikini with a drink in one hand and can confidently chat with men. I grew up in a culture where this is just not the norm.

So my question I guess really is, if this something that women just grow into it and if so, there is some hope for me. In that case maybe if I try wearing a few times I might slowly get comfortable after a while.

DH is white and is supportive of me in whatever I am comfortable. It is just as likely I am imagining things when I said checking out other women. But it how I feel.

Thanks for putting up with my rant and all the helpful suggestions![/quote]

I am in my 50s and a tall size 18. I gained weight over the last year and feel so gross. I recently went to a nude beach and it was life-altering. I took it all off and frolicked on in the waves. I had never been naked in front of anyone but a doctor or men I dated. A guy in his 20s came to hang out with us on the beach (it wasn't creepy). I also wore a bikini for the first time since I was 13. I suggest you follow Lizzo on her IG. Every body is a beach body. if someone is grossed out by me they don't have to look. [/quote]
