I think body confidence is hugely under-rated.

However; is it really confidence that leads a woman to feel she needs to display her nearly naked body for comment?

Personally (and yes, this is my OPINION) I prefer to keep some parts of my body a secret for only my husband to unwrap. I don't wear a bikini. I don't wear a sports bra without a shirt over it. I don't wear "ta-da!" shorts. Or any number of the myriad of revealing clothes that I've been told I should aspire to wear. I don't let my daughter wear them either.

Thoughts....

    I think anybody that wants to post bikini pictures should be able to. Regardless of what anyone else has ever told them they should aspire to wear.

    Me too! How many people are allowed to have their own thoughts before the world implodes?

    As soon as I have the body I want, I plan to wear a bikini everywhere I go.

    To each their own. I think the women that have the balls to put it out there, rock.

    OP:
    To each their own. I have always been ashamed to wear swimsuits or anything that resembled one. You are more than welcome to say how you feel because everyone is entitled to THEIR opinion but really, it's just that "THEIR" opinion. I applaud ANY woman that has the guts to display themselves confidently in a swimsuit. Today, I displayed MY pictures. They weren't to 'show off' but to help with my self esteem and to help build confidence with in myself. If this offends you, maybe you shouldn't click on the links that says they contain pictures. :wink:

    Some people are more comfortable with allowing others to see their bodies, especially in the context of a fitness site.

    However, those same people don't seem to question or judge those who prefer to wear pants or long sleeves in their photos.

    :"are bikini pics really the best display of a ??"

    Assuming you meant "are they the best display of fitness progress"--- Well yes, barring total nekkidness.


    To each their own.
