    Wouldnt care. Would look, evaluate if i WB/WNB, then move on.

    How often is there a WNB for you?

    What does it matter? I try to focus on myself, not other people. If it bothers you, don't look.


    BTW, this stinks of body shaming to me.

    Both- there are some that are big but still have a nice shape to them and have a bikini that fits- I commend them for their bravery. Then there are those that are wearing a bikini that is way too small and I think - YUCKO!! Get yourself a suit that fits you or lose weight! I think it is all in the presentation- if you look big but classy- YEAH! :)


    I agree with this but it really depends how big they are. But I don't think this is any worse than a fat bloke in a pair of trunks/swim shorts with his belly hanging over and man boobs on show but nobody ever questions if they should keep their t-shirt on :ohwell:

    Depends on how the fat is carried. If it's sloppy, ew, gross, cover it up. Then again, it makes my fatass in a bikini look better, so go on with your bad selves.

    After the initial disgust at the sight of her, I stop caring and go on with my day.

    It's kind of like a pug's face. It's ugly, but after a while you just accept it.

    Good for them if they do.

    Me personally? I would never. Neverrrrrrr.

    If big woman can't wear bikinis, who's gonna wear that size 46? That's the question that pop up to me...Im not confident though to wear a bikini, I don't but I don't mind people who wear them....its the beach for God's sake!

    7-8 times out of 10. I am rather picky.

    I tend to not notice these types of things. I tend to focus on what makes me happy, judging others isn't my thing.

    I don't care. Unfortunately though most people outside of any weight loss-type of community would feel completely differently and will pinpoint anything to shame someone elses body.

    Will a bigger girl be stared at and probably hear some nasty remarks? Most definitely. Will EVERYBODY feel that way? Definitely not. Even if you lose weight people will find something else about your body to act disgusted by anyway (even when there is nothing).

    Gotta love society. Wear whatever YOU are comfortable in and ignore the people who have confidence low enough to put you down.

    I just don't really notice. If I'm in a place like at the pool or the beach and everyone's in swimwear, then all I see is swimwear. It doesn't matter to me who's in it - I'm there to relax and have fun, who has time for judging? :)

    Good for her! I wish I could have the confidence to wear one. Maybe one day - but I would secretly wish I could introduce her to mfp to help her be healthy ????

    I do get judgmental, don't want to lie. Just think we all should be realistic.

    But bikini is ok... Imagine NO bikini.

    ive been to nude beaches and seen 60+ years old women and men. That's much more painful to see than some fatty in a bikini.
    Some of them had major plastic surgeries done too.

    Don't get me wrong, most people are gorgeous there but suddenly you see a 200 kg naked woman who's nipples are hidden in the rolles of her belly fat. That's impressive.

    Are we talking "big girls" or big "girls"? 'Cause if it's the latter, sometimes bikinis don't offer enough hoist.

    That's the answer every woman is looking for!

    Yup but the turn on comes from the fact she is confident enough in herself to wear it....this from my husband.

    For me eh whatever floats your boat...I personally wouldn't wear a two piece at my smallest (and 20 yrs old size 8) but do now after having a child...because I am more confident...

    I'm terrible for comparing myself to others..... so I do look at others and judge whether I'm bigger or smaller than them.... and perhaps feel happy when I'm not the largest person on the beach.

    I don't care what people wear as long as it actually fits and it's 'appropriate', so I guess I'll judge others on that.... e.g. I dislike thong bikinis on anyone and hate it when people squeeze themselves into items that are clearly too small.

    I wouldn't say anything. Good for her in feeling secure enough to wear it!!!!

    Personally, I don't want to be the "big girl" wearing something that causes others to feel nauseous.... Hence why I don't wear one :)

    Please don't. Look, I know what it's like to be big, but I also know how to dress for my size and always have. It's obscene to see a 300+ lb woman in a bikini. Dress respectfully. Bikinis are a little risque to begin with, and they shouldn't be made in certain sizes. I know I'll probably get flack for this, but I don't care. Just be respectful of yourself and others. Big girls look a lot better in a one piece or conservative two piece.

    I would never say anything, of course, or try to make her feel ashamed of herself but it usually makes me uncomfortable.

    I don't mind seeing big girls in bikinis. It's not like a full bathing suit hides anything, and good for them for not giving a f***.

    HA HA HA ... What can I say? I LOVE the female body in all it's shapes and forms. Just show me some skin and I am happy!!!!!!!!!! I wish I could get my wife to buy into my line of thinking. She dresses like a nurse in a snow storm at the pool and at the beach.

    Too bad you're already married :(.

    I wouldn't care, its none of my business. If she has the confidence to wear a bikini I'd say rock it!

    Whatever they're comfortable in. Self confidence is a sexy trait.

    I always feel happy for them being comfortable with their body.
    Gold star for her. I didn't even wear a legit bikini when I was thin.

    Yeah, I'm missing a great opportunity to White Knight here, but there's a Walmart just down the street and it's hot out today - they'll surely be someone in there with a tube top who should have thought twice...

    But I think think the vast majority of people know if they should or should not wear something in public. If you don't know - maybe ask a close friend?

    I keep my shirt on in public - as a public service. It's not a matter of confidence - if you want to see my belly hanging out - just ask. I will happily show you. :drinker:

    Good point! Unless they are wearing a burkini, bathing suits don't hide much of anything anyway.

    This is very true. If you're overweight, you're not going to be able to hide it in a swim suit.

    If she decides to wear it, more power to her.

    I wouldn't personally simply because I am not small enough and toned enough yet to wear one and plan on saving the public from burning their eyes out. :happy:
