    Right there with you on that. It's unnecessary to start calling her names simply because there are different views on this topic. Yikes. :(


    ^^^^ That.

    Some of you all need to go eat a piece of cake or something.

    I think that it's great that some women feel confident enough to post pics of themselves in bikinis/undergarments, no matter what body type they have. You wont be catching me in a bikini anytime soon (ever), but for those that wear them, more power to you!

    Um, I'm pretty sure we should form a Beauty & the Beast-scene mob with all the MFP villagers and go stone the slutty wenches! And bring the magic mirror so they can see their whorish selves while they're being stoned.

  • Why not have a bit of self respect and dignity and choose a nice one piece suit that flatters your figure?!

    I have found many two pieces that flatter my figure. Why dont you choose a nice muzzle that flatters your attitude?!

    Yayuh!! This. :drinker:

    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:

    You rock!!!!

  • I agree.... a women doe snot need to show everything she's got to show "her results"..... I think of myself as a godly women and I would not allow my daughter to parade around like that so I need to be an example too. Most (not all) of the women who do that on this site are just looking for the attention they get from the men here. I am loosing weight and feeling great, but it's for me and only my husband gets to see the "real" results..... most people will bag on this idea because they crave others attention, good or bad.....

    the bikini pics aren't about conservative or not. they're about loving who you are. loving your body. and REFUSING to let anyone else tell you differently.

    Wow! I am reminded that I am so happy to live in a free country where I can choose to wear what I want. And I can choose to have non-judgmental friends. :smile: To the OP: I would advise my life-theory: Don't like it - don't look.

    I think there's a difference between an opinion and starting a debate and being aware that the debate will get fired up because deep inside you're criticizing those users who post pictures in bikinis. I mean, let's be honest. You won't have posted this thread unless you knew this was coming.

    With that said, do you ever go in front of a Strip Club with signs saying the same thing you said here? I bet you don't. So whether your reasons for not showing parts of your body is for whatever reason it is, your approach to this topic goes beyond being an "opinion" and just because you say so still doesn't make it one.

    Personally everybody is free to do as they please as long as they're not harming themselves or others, and yet, if they want to harm themselves, it is their own problem. Having the confidence and the desire to express what they want and how they feel using pictures wearing bikinis not only is their choice but also it works towards their confidence.

    "Just my opinion" :bigsmile:

    I thought the same thing...the OP wasn't concerned about women posting in bikinis...she just wanted to start s@#t. To bad her comment wasn't just ignored.

    To each his own.

    Yep! When I get to my goal, I too will be in a bikini. No for anyone else, but myself.

    I will have worked hard to get there and will be darn proud!

    And what do you think should be done with these "*kitten*"? These brazen women daring to dress as they choose, almost like it were a free society or something...

    Is public shaming enough or should we start stoning them?

    Um, I'm pretty sure we should form a Beauty & the Beast-scene mob with all the MFP villagers and go stone the slutty wenches! And bring the magic mirror so they can see their whorish selves while they're being stoned.

    I know you're joking but BELIEVE me the MFPuritans love nothing more than clicking "report" 90 times a day on any pic they don't like (i.e. people who've actually lost weight, look good and make them feel bad about themselves while they eat Cool Ranch chips)


    Why you gotta bring Cool Ranch Doritos in to this?!

    I'm a born and raised Florida girl and I have never seen anything wrong with bikinis, tanks, short shorts, or sports bras while running. It's hot and why not take advantage of the free sunlight to tan your skin?

    My body is not a special gift to be unwrappedy for my husband. My body is MINE and I love it. I let it breath! My husband can wear a speedo to the beach if he wants. I really don't care.

    As far at the bikini's post, this is a fitness site about creating healthy bodies. Why not photograph that journey?

    A WILD FEMINIST APPEARS!!

    It's really effective.

    a body is a body, functional and MADE TO BE NAKED.

    How covering up is meant to be more devout i will never understand.

    How about, because you are taller and have bigger boobs than the average woman and they just don't make affordable one-piece bathing suits that accommodate both?
    Believe me, I've TRIED to find one-pieces to cover up my ugly tummy skin, but it is hard to do when you are 5'10" and have a big bust (and a very small budget).
    Also, like I said, I posted my picture to help women with a lot of weight to lose have a realistic idea of what they might end up like - skin stretches and doesn't always bounce right back. Is it pretty? No. Does it mean I didn't work my butt off to get healthy? No. Does it mean I don't "deserve" to wear something that is comfortable and fits - whether or not it is flattering - so I can go swimming? Again, NO.

    I agree with this wholeheartedly. Wearing super short shorts and a really revealing top is just disgusting in my personal opinion, UNLESS they're your workout clothes (and even then, there's a fine line between what's acceptable and what makes someone look like a *kitten*).

    Whenever I see the term "*kitten*" it makes me wanna go ballistic. Who the hell do you think you are calling women who decide to wear whatever they want *kitten*? Shut you mouth and grow up before you even dare to offend anyone for what they wear.

    I think the important thing to remember is that there's a difference between modesty and shame. Modesty is perfectly fine, but shame should be examined and explored. And being judgmental is just ugly.

    So, your daughter is not allowed to wear a swimsuit?

    While I understand appreciate and partly agree with your comment. I only have one photo of me in a bikini that I did for a shoot for my husband not too long ago, there were other photos that were taken that are just for him. DO I wear a bikini all the time when we go to the beach or post the one pic I have of it everywhere?? NO because I respect my body too I think people who post pictures of their cleavage and pictures of them in underwear or lingerie is sending more of the signal that you talk about (the shorts etc as well)
    again just my opinion :)

    I respect greatly your right to do as you feel is correct for you.

    You attitude towards others absolutely sucks and undermines the testimony of the faith you profess.
    Really...think about it.

    You're allowed your opinion, but I disagree. It's a badge of honor for a woman to be able to show off her abs - it's such a hard thing to attain. If you get there, I'd love to see it for inspiration!
