    What is your opinion on girls that take pictures of themselves showing off or flaunting "their goods "in their bras, or arms covering what should be x rated? And post it on here? How much skin is acceptable to show in a photo? (and I'm not just talking about the bikini pics). Isn't this a fitness site?? Well I'm on here to get help with weight loss and fitness. I really don't need to see pic that you might be on a porn site. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great if a girl has enough confidence to show themselves off like that, but can't we keep it tasteful? I'm sure she's posting the pictures to get attention from guys or maybe even other girls... Anyways I think its extremely distasteful and should not be allowed

    Whatever porn you're watching sucks. You may wish to research it more.

    I have to say that most of the time it doesn't bother me ... and when it does, what is really bothering me is that I am jealous that I will never have a body like them because I did so much damage to my body from getting so overweight to begin with.

    If someone has the confidence to post something that can be seen on a typical beach, it should not be an issue, whether or not it is a bikini or bra/underware (which typically covers the same amount)...Do you not go to the beach because you're offended by girls in bikinis?...I'd say probably not, you go ahead and go and try to enjoy the sun and water anyway, right???? To me...same thing.

    Don't be so focused on everyone else and what they are comfortable with posting...try to remain focused on yourself and what makes you happy, what you're comfortable with posting and actually being happy WITH yourself.

    I get so tired of everyone worrying about what others are doing or not doing, etc. Grow up! Life is what it is, you can't change other people...try to make the best of what you have control over and leave the rest ---- to each their own!

    this girl is proud to be in the 'sluts' and 'inappropriate' categories. I've worked really hard to get to where I am, and it motivates both myself and my MFP friends to see the changes!!

    ALSO: None of the pics I've seen on MFP has struck ME as being suggestive or sexual. Hmmm...

    <---well mine is hardly sexy and I'm in a bra... It depends...if it's done prevocatively... that's when it's inapproprpriate. When it's done in a way that it';s tasteful and not "sexy" it's no worse than you guys with your tops off... their vital assets are covered! In addition...it's no worse than a bikini which you see at the pool, in the park in the summer, at the beach....

    I don't see many that are distasteful at all either. This is a FITNESS site. Where we show our BODIES. I know it is an odd concept

    Not to attract a mate or anything o.O to show progress and how far we have come.

    On here I wanted to show my stomach because of how hard I've worked. I don't think it's wrong to do so as long as it's not like bra and underwear or side boob going on. lol

    They're not dirty or anything. It's just people showing off what they worked so hard for.

    Seriously ??? What about the sisterhood and celebrating being female ?? If someone wants to show off their form then good luck to them. I think most people are here to achieve greatness and a physique they are proud of. I have never seen anything pornographic on here. Just girls who are proud of where they are on their journey.

    I don't have much T, but I'm really proud of my A because it's something I've worked really hard on. :happy:

    I applaud those who show some skin in their photos, because it's they tend to be the ones I use as role models for how to eat and exercise. Anyone can look good fully clothed.

    Besides, what shows my progress better? In June 2011, I was 135#. In January/February 2012, I was around 133#.

    So this is another bash on the OP thread? Sweet! We don't get much of those lately.
    When the OP is a whiny hypocrite, then yes... Except that this entire post seems to be a giant troll / joke, in which case, well done, OP!

    I think the women who complain are jealous and small people inside.

    OR a prude.


    I'm not offended by the female body. I have one.

    Or maybe, JUST maybe she's showing off her hard work.

    This... if you don't like, don't look. comes across that you are wildly jealous, so much so you felt compelled to write it.
    PS people aren't going to stop posting them! if she wants attention, let her! You clearly don't and that's fine! Each to their own!

    I think they are brilliant they're motivational, inspirational and show off hard work that cant always be seen fully clothed ( abs, muscle definition etc) they are easy enough to avoid if you dont want to see them so just dont look. and also i think you are over-generalising. the men do it just as much as the women. i wish i had the comfidence to post pics up like that. People deserve to get praise for all their hard work. not complained at for how many clothes they choose to show their success in.

    I'm pretty sure posting the fact that the OP herself has a "half-naked bikini" picture was not bashing her, just questioning why it's okay for her but no one else?

    This website is for motivation and inspiration, not really for people making them feel bad for being proud of what they have accomplished! Bra/panties and swim suits are not offensive. Go on the VS website and I'm sure you will see just as much if not more skin!
