And those of you saying it's nbd- do you even know what you're talking about?! It's inappropriate to be wearing a thong at the pool. I'm seeing complete cellulite butts hanging out.

If you feel this way don't vacation in Europe.

I was in Italy this spring and I did not see that much flesh. Perhaps it’s different at the beach, but the beach is different.

I mean your suit doesn't fit, of course it's atrocious. I'm petite, many suits are simply too long in the crotch. If you want to confirm, just take the suit and fold out a tuck from leg hole to leg hole at the narrowest point of the crotch. I can often take out as much as two inches. Just safety pin that and try on the suit. You might be shocked at how complete the improvement is. As a desperate fix, I would just sew that tuck through all layers and never give it another thought, ugly but invisible. The proper alteration would be a lot more involved. I sew and have designed swimwear, but I'd rather start from scratch than spend the effort to actually alter the crotch of an existing suit, especially for myself.

Yes. I feel so sorry for women athletes who have to play with their uniforms up their butt. It looks so uncomfortable.

Our team hated them so much we protested and won a uniform change. Honestly its like gross men chose the outfit that no woman on the team wanted to wear. They just wanted to watch our butts. Pigs.

Butt out !

Don’t get me wrong, I dread the thought of my husband or son wearing a thong at the pool or beach. I’m no prude, I have a few racy cut swim suits that I wear in the islands with hubby but wouldn’t wear in Ocean City.

Ahh, so you’re okay with butts out as long as it isn’t stateside.

My guess is PP feels that the standard of observers would be different. In OC it would be highly sexualized view of her body, probably some phone pics snapped, most decent resorts oversees you are just a woman in/out of a bathing suit and you may get noticed but not gawked at or cat called.

What are you talking about?

I’m all for the butts but now that I have a young teen myself I am disappointed by the lack of full front coverage for the girls. Are all these young girls at the beach really waxing? I got her a bikini with boy shorts (not board shorts) after lots of looking from Amazon. Had to replace while here at the beach and not a single boy short cut is available so she is stuck in board shorts (her choice as she is very self conscious about any hair showing). Why don’t we just have options ladies?!?

Well this is random.

Agreed, women’s swimwear bottoms
have always been unflattering. I recall a swimwear manufacturer with a campaign years “ditch the diaper” in favor of a ruched rear bathing suit bottom. Far more attractive than the saggy, baggy bikini bottoms of yesteryear! Good to see women sporting modern swimwear bottoms with a Rio, Brazilian or thong style bottoms.

What about shorts, like men wear? Wouldn’t that be the obvious solution to the diaper look? Why must women always be losing clothing in order to look better?

Cuz it’s cheaper to manufacture.

Using that logic, men’s trunks would resemble daisy dukes. They do not. Try again.

Yep. Fabric isn't driving cost. A sack with twice as much lycra would be inexpensive to manufacture. Where brands loose money is on returns. If everyone hates the way they look in the sack, that's the issue.

Why do people get so worked up over what other people wear? If you don’t like something, don’t wear it, and ignore those who do.
