    I'd probably scare everyone off in a bikini (hello loose skin).

    So swim suit. With a skirt.

    I just bought my first bikinis in like 10 years. I don't know if I'll be brave enough to wear them around others yet

    @Gimsteinn1 I do agree on that some swimsuits & bikinis can be quite tacky.

    Hey all :smile: I'm waiting to get down to a size UK 20 before I buy a swimsuit but I have already bookmarked the ones I would love to get and they are like full swimsuits but the bottom is either shorts or a skirt.... a few years back I was a size 22-24 UK and I would wear bikinis ( tank top and shorts style) and I didn't like them that much but I also did not like full swim suits with the normal bottom part as I was scared I would get wedges either side which would be so embarrassing... basically something like this:

    I like this. Might be too form fitting for me though, as I carry fat in my hips. The ones I have are two like this so you don't see my hips as much

    Depends...if I'm going to family swim with the boy a swim suit.
    If I'll be mainly lounging by the pool or on vacay and playing in he ocean a bikini. Thst being said when I wear the bikini to lay by the pool and see people who I know from skating or curling I then feel.a bit awkward having them see me in essentially a bra and panties. but I have aome super cute bikinis so I dont really care

    I got it from Kohls, it's their Croft and Barrow brand. It's just a regular swimsuit with a dress part over it. They don't make that exact model anymore but they have a few others.

    I have both, so it really just depends on the cut of the suit and the pattern.

    However, I will say I tend to like a lot of retro, high waisted bikinis. They're just cuter to me than something that leaves little to the imagination and usually have prints I like more than the whatever is popular for that particular summer. :)

    I thought a bikini was a style of swim suit?

    I think people should wear what makes them comfortable. A two piece suit is more convenient often than a one piece.
    I haven't worn a bikini since I was a toddler. I like the tank style suits better.

    I have 3 bathing suits... one for swimming laps at the gym; that one is one piece. I have another one piece that has a little flare thing to it around the tummy. Then I have a two piece that is like a tank top so it covers my gut, and the bottoms are short shorts.

    seriously, as a guy...... a bikini and/or swimsuit looks better if its suits the body shape. I would prefer to see the skin rather than everything being squished into a suit and popping out through every gap. Even a larger female body looks nice unrestricted, you're all beautiful.... Stand Up For Skin!!

    .... there.... I said it!...

    ^^ yes, this! but it really just depends on the bikini/suit itself and how it fits me.

    I am a bit modest and prefer the two piece with the tighter skirt bottom. I'd love to wear a bikini but my thighs bother me, being all out there. :blush:
