I Have Worn a Bikini

The title of this group, and for that matter, a lot of the posts in it, make it sound like wearing a bikini is some sort of wildly outrageous, unheard of and shocking activity, and I have to ask if this is something peculiar to conservative America.

I say that because over here in Australia, especially in the tropics where I live, bikinis are standard beach, pool and leisure wear. Practically every girl above 4 or 5 years old has at least one, if not a whole collection, to wear and they can been seen not only on every populated beach but on the streets of almost every resort town or location you care to mention.

Are we really such a delightful exception to the rule?

no, I think it is more a way to try to coax out such pics lol

although moms and other older women might prefer one-pieces to bikinis, they are def used by young women and many middle aged ones, as well

@tropicaltiger oh yes, but here they might be more concerned about not having a bikini-ready body

the youth culture can be daunting, I think
