Ive found an old picture of me in a bikini and a little while ago I took a photo before I got dressed to compare. Only thing is - it's an underwear shot and I'm dubious about posting it because it may be deemed offensive or incorrect - what are everyones views on this?

    If you are comfortable in your underwear who cares? Not really any different coverage wise than a swimsuit anyway.

    Just the same as a bikini really isn't it. I wouldn't be offended.

    However, personally, I wouldn't be comfortable posting pictures of myself in underwear on a public internet site. Just be aware of your safety.

    But, as far as anyone else's opinions go - if they don't like it they won't have to look.

    It is all about what your comfortable with. Really underware and swim suits are not that different - only in functionality.

    I dont think its offensive. Underwear pictures = Bathing suit pictures in most cases.

    I've seen so many pictures of girls in their bathing suits doing progress pictures and not get reported. But it's entirely up to you. If you're second guessing it, you probably shouldn't do it.

    Hi I don't have a problem with it, but I wouldn't like the idea that somebody might enjoy it a bit too much, if you know what I mean, but as said, it's not much different to swimwear :-)

    If your new picture is anythink like your profile picture you will be fine, I see a very pretty face in that picture that should make you very happy. As for me if you were to post pictures in normal clothing I would see the difference. But to answer your question, I would agree with jellybaby84. Your safety is what comes first.

    I'd say it's all about what you're comfortable with, if you're comfortable then it's fine :)

    If you are comfortable with the pic go for it! If anyone reports you they are a douche (IMO).

    I think swimwear, etc, the least clothing possible pics are awesome for showing progress, clothing can hide so much of you and doesn't always have as big an impact but it is down to you if you want to do it! :)

    Its fine.

    I wouldn't go for a glamour model pose - just a straight forward 'this is me' picture. I don't see how that could offend anyone.

    well, I hadn't really thought about people enjoying them a bit too much but after one of the comments Ive just read I think I'll leave it and try and do a clothed one - even though underwear/swimwear definitely show off your body shape more than in clothes.

    i am offended....that you won't post the pic. Trust me, there are worst pics on here. Steps to take:
    1. Don said item of clothing
    2. Find mirror, or accomplice to take pic
    3. Shoot pic
    4. Post
    5. If anyone tells you they are offended, tell them to Kiss your azz.

    See, that was easy.
