    So, just out of curiosity, this morning somewhere I saw a post in which guys were berated for wearing speedos because it made everyone else uncomfortable. Here the gals are told if YOU feel comfortable, wear what you want!

    Is this a double standard, or is it a matter of different people responding?

    For me, it would be different people responding. If a guy wants to rock a speedo, no matter his age or fitness level, more power to him.

    I'm 64. I'm pretty sure I should not wear a bikini anywhere.

    Should women stop wearing bikinis at a certain age?

    Nope! I like getting an eye full at any age.

    Most any age... :noway:

    Finally learning at 27 that what other people think, doesn't matter to me.

    Last time I went to the beach (at 22, and weighing 160) I wore one anyways, because I felt comfortable with the people I was with. Was I overweight? YES.

    Now I weigh 131, and thinking about buying a nice new bikini when I get to my goal weight (another 6-12 pounds away). Maybe i'll do it sooner though.

    As long as you are confident I don't care what age you are - enjoy it!

    PS - I worked at a retirement cent and have seen some 80 year old women pull it off no problem.

    It's swimwear and sun wear. It is meant for comfort, really. The fact it is even a dicsussion is kind of funny.

    Granny can floss up and pastie anything she wants. She's earned it.

    I turned 19 less than two months ago and I can assure you there are tons of 40+ aged women who look way better than me on the beach. I say go for it if you're comfortable, age doesn't matter.

    when you go to the beach, you going to enjoy yourself so wear what you want. I don't discriminate! Bikini's and speedos are acceptable!
