Calling bullshit on this. I lived in Geemany for a very long time and if I whipped out my triple Ds at the pool there'd be plenty of eye batting. Some folks do sunbathe naked, but it is by far not the norm.

My cousins, all girls, as would all girls in Germany--wear bikini / speedo bottoms, no tops, at public beaches and lakes. No one batted an eye.

Big deal? Was it bad that I gave in, or am I just being prudish?

But then I have never understood Americans' prudishness. You would see much more on display on many French beaches.
You say that as if it's a virtue.

Her pool is just so inviting. We are always there.
I'm just not picturing this. They need swim diapers until they're potty trained, and then they swim naked for approximately 2-3 years until they turn 5?
