Ahhh Summer, Water and Swimsuits....NO!!!!

1/29/2015

31 Comments

 
I know, it is only the 4th week of January; but we're already starting to look forward to longer days, warmer nights and less clothing. That's right, less clothing.

The other night while having dinner with some friends, the topic of Summer came up; from going to Airshows, wearing shorts and t-shirts to going to the beach and beachwear.  All was going just fine, until the dreaded "swimsuit" issue came up. I didn't realized that for some people, specially women, this is a BIG deal and furthermore a very touchy subject. Specially for one of my most favorite friends on the planet, Melisa.
She is an adorable person in just about every sense of the word. The woman is fascinating and a blast to be around. But, a fiery repulsiveness to be seen in public in less than long sleeve shirts, jeans and long skirts become fighting words. I know, I found out about it!

I suspect she's not the only one who feels this way. In fact I know she's not alone on this self imposed commandment.

I've always felt curious to seeing individuals in the middle of 100° day at the peak of Summer, wearing heavy shirts, long pant and even sweat pants and layers of clothing, even at the local swimming  pools. Why?!

My answer came that night with my friend Melisa. She does not like her body.
That blew me away, since she has a pretty face, nice hair, very attractive bust line and average built. I know that body acceptance is a big deal for everyone. Including yours truly. But, she has come to believe, that her's in particular is not at all good enough to be ever be seen in public. That  made me very sad.

I supposed that somewhere, somehow, long ago, some one  came along and made a rude comment. Or,  maybe a simple  gaze in the mirror didn't reflect the same image found on a fashion magazine. I don't know. But whatever the catalyst was that cemented the idea in her head that she was not "good-enough", stuck.
I assured her, that her beautiful face, personality and shape were pleasing and perfectly good enough not only to be at the beach but here, in these pages. The only response I got was an even more determined resolved to not do it.
Yup, time to back away!

Sure, I understand that sometimes flattery and adulation can be perceived as a self serving tool, specially coming from a "guy". But in her case, there's much more than that. She truly, is uncomfortable with herself.

I wonder how many perfectly, fantastic women out there,  who are going thru similar circumstances. How many, good times, dreams and even relationships are going unfulfilled because of a miss-perception of oneself?

Body image is a powerful tool. It dictates how we move in society, how we maneuver in day to day living; Sometimes preventing us from living.

I love my friend and I can only hope that her wall, will someday give way to her full glorious self.

She sounds like a lovely woman. She, I believe represent a huge percent of women in our society. I was the same way for a long time. I didn't wear shorts nor cutoffs for in the hottest time of the year; and here in Georgia gets pretty hot!
I also didn't like wearin bathing suits at the lake or pool parties. In fact, I dreaded the invitations to go swimming with my friends or family.
I didn't want anyone to SEE ME!
I was a little overweight in certain areas and the thought of people ogling me was atrocious.
I had friends with beautiful, pettit and well tone bodies. I wanted to kill them or just simply hide while they were displaying their goods.

Then a few years ago, after I had my 1st child I had the opportunity to spend some time at a friend's house in the coutry. They had a lovely hot tub in their back yard. There was no one around exept for my husband. I was a great summer's night and I decided to try it out.
SInce I have been breast feeding, my boobs were sore and tired. I didn't want to wear the bikini top.

While in the water, my breasts felt incredible. I love the weightless feeling and the relaxation all over my body.

My husband put our son Ryan in a space next to the tub and joined in. He was just as surprised as I was, that for the first time in 28 years I was topless and actually enjoying it. It felt ...natural.

While enjoying the water, the conversation and the bubbles the jets produced, we were totally unawares that our hosts had returned home!

They are some of our oldest and trusted friends. We have know for over 20 years. Since high school.

The came over and jumped in the tub. I was ready to DIE!!!!! It was so unexpected. I was embarrassed and mortified that I was exposed to the world.
My girlfriend just smiled a big smile and started chatting with me. She took her top off and we continued to talk just like we always do.

The boys even though they glanced in our direction, took to talking about what men talk about. My husband had seen my girlfriend nude before. They are uninhibited people but never pushy.

After 20 minutes of so, I began to feel more confident and relaxed again. It was as thou I have always done this. The awkwardness wore out, the fear vanished.

Later, reflecting in the years of misspent opportunities to make myself happy and to had a life back them. I wonder what brought that on. What happened to me then, that made me loath my body or my self?

I looked at pictures of my highschool days and growing up years and there was nothing wrong at all! I wore braces and was a bit chubby but nothing extreme. I was a normal, beautiful girl.

I wish I could go back and tell myself, that it was ok to enjoy my self and to cherish my body and who I was.

I'm gld that I have friends who made me see, or rather didn't see anything wrong with me at all.

Now, I can't wait for summer days and hot weather to wear my shorts and my bikini tops. I have come to terms with who and what I am. I have beautiful breasts and show them off now!! :) (maybe I'll send you pictures for your site)
My legs are another story :}}

Anyway, I just wanted to put my 2 cents in. I hope your friend will someday, realized that the world in imperfect that that she is beutiful no matter what.

I can understand the dilemma. We women are a bit tough when it comes to self deprecation.

I don't know if this is something we learn or we were exposed to when we were growing up.

In my case it was my hair. I'm a redhead. Somehow I came to believe that redheads are different and ugly. Gosh.

Then while I was a teen, all my attention went from my hair to my boobs. Didn't have any. That was a rough time for me. All my friends had them and they were beautiful. I wanted beutiful boobs too.

I survived highschool and early college. I got married to a great guy who likes small boobs.
Now in my late 30s I'm going to have them done. Just because I want to know what is like to have bigger bosoms. My husband is ok with it. I suspect just about any man would like bigger girls to play with. ha,ha.

I guess I'm still have some small issues with my body, but I don't let those to get in the way of my life. It's my life after all.

Yeah, my wife was the same way when we met. We lived in N. Dakota at the time. I remember, going to the river and jumping in the water, and she will be wearing tshirts under her swimsuit. I thought it had something to do with the sun or something like that.

After we got married she never wanted to go the river or lakes at all. She put a little weight but nothing to make a big deal. In fact I liked it becuase her boobs were bigger. I'm a breast man too.

Anyway, she endured heat and humidity for many years but she never wanted to take anything off. She even wore sweats in summer!!
It drove me nuts because I knew she was uncomfortable and miserable but she will not exposed anything at all. It began to affect our love time too.

My boss recommended a visit to a Phycologist to see if that would help. Shit. I didn't know how to bring that up with her. But things began to get worst for us. I wanted to be outside and have fun and she wanted to stay indoors. She started to lock the bathroom door while she shower. That never happened before. Finally I decided to bring the subject up and suggested a marriage counselor. She agreed.

SOmehow it came out that right before graduation in highschool, her cousin told her that she had never seen a funnier looking shape on a woman than on my wife.That she would be lucky if she got married because she had disproportionate tits.

I never knew this until our visits to the dr. She began to help us, to help her.

We moved to Laguna Nigel about 6 years ago and everyone here has a different attitude . My wife started to meet new people and we started hang out more at the beach since we live so close.

One day we got invited to go to a nudist resort not far from here, to celebrate one of her friend's birthday. I was afraid that Michelle was going to lose it. We were told that we didn't have to participate. That it was clothing optional day.

We went to check it out. There were plenty of people we knew from work and others we didn't. The place was relaxed and fun. No one cared if we were naked or not. Everyone was having a good time. We were there for about 6 hours when my wife asked me if I wanted to get naked and go for a swim. I thought she was drunk or kidding.

She wasnt and I knew that the mental torture was over for her. That was about 2 years ago, and now she's a free woman. She accepted her herself with flaws and imperfections. We are happier and more relaxed now. We can focus on what's really important in our lives.

I'm still terrified of being in public on a bikini!!!

I know it is irrational, but I have a hard time with people looking at me. I kinda do it myself. Judge. I'm bad.

Someday I need to overcome my hangups. I may even send you a picture of two for your site.

Give your friend some time. She may need some encouragement like I do. :)

Hi.
I guess I know what you'r friend is going through, I'm living it! ha,ha
I'm terrified of my body!

I hate the idea of anyone seeing it, but I suffer because I want desperatly to be able to walk around nude. Specially in very hot days. I live in Georgia. It gets hot and humid here.
I do take my clothes off in private; but that's not where the fun is. It makes me sad not being able to be like everyone else.

I'm a 30 something and I hope that by the time I'm in my 40's I'll be able to overcome this problem. This is my youth still and I want to enjoy it. I don't want to regret my years.

Hopefully someday I'll be able to send you some pictures. Good luck to your friend.

Can't wait for the warm weather to finally hit after the long ass winter we had here in the East coast.

We go naked all the time. Well, we get dressed when people who we don't know that well come over. We are respectful of others and don't want make anyone uncomfortable.
But, being naked is natural.We're born that way!

I think to each their own, but being upset about being nude or seing others nude its neurotic.

I hope you're friend will someday find how wonderful and healthy being naked is. Not to mention fun as hell.

Maybe you can help her with articles or other friends who like being nude and show her a little a the time how to feel comfortable. Easy does it.

Live naked!

I used to hate show any skin, specially in public!

I used to always turn down growing swimming or anything that involved swimming suits or water related sports.
I used to sleep with my bra on and a tee.

Then out of the blue, I started to develop a weird rash. The condition went on for months and got very bad during the hot months.
Not much would help until the doctor told me to start sleeping with only a towel wrapped around my chest and the cream for the rash.
It felt very uncomfortable at first because I like the snugness of my bra.
After a few weeks I started to feel better, but I also noticed that I wasn't using the towel that much anymore.

I started to sleep topless and then nude. Now I can't think of going back. I feel refreshed in the mornings and now going swimming and hanging around nude it's natural and wonderful.

Being naked is such a wonderful feeling!!
I love and enjoy being naked with my friends and boyfriend. When we travel some place or just camping, we always make sure we get some naked time.

I hope your friend will find lots of friends who will help her be comfortable with herself.

Hummm. I wish I could meet her and tell her that life is going quick and you never get a second back. I was introduced to naturism about 8 years ago in school. I have loved every second since!

I grew up in a very orthodox environment where the body was looked upon as a mere tool that should never be looked at. NEVER

Somehow it was believed that the very second a portion of your skin were shown, the devil will come and claim it and you will be dirty forever.
I never went swimming or dancing or wore low cuts even in the middle of summer. Unless, I did it in hiding.

I went to school in Florida and it is pretty hard not to be around water and beautiful bodies. I was asked many times to join in parties, and outings with roommates and some boyfriends. Finally, seeing my best friends enjoying themselves without being sexual, I decided to try it out. You know what? NOTHING happened!
No devil came, no hordes of boys trying to have their way nor I became dirty.

You have to pick your moments, however. I did it with very close friends and people who I honestly trusted. I guess that's the key.
For me, being with friends who were open minded and cared for me, was the stepping stone. No one judged me nor make fun of my lady bits in the open.

I hope that you or others can help your friend. It is such healthy and liberating life style. I've grown in so many ways since becoming more comfortable with my own body.

NAKED YES!!

Summer's here and the time has come to shed clothing and be naked, everywhere!

I live in New York and thankfully it's ok for women to be topless in most public places where men can. So, I take advantage of it.
New York city is hot and humid. It is refreshing being topless and not worry about it.

Naked in the sun and wind. What a great way to live.
I wish must people would try it once in a while.

I know that in some (few) states is ok for women to be topless and free in public. That's what I call equality and progress for womenkind.

I'm not a feminist nor of a liberal persuasion. I just think that tits should be free just like the men. I know that there are many sisters out there, who may be scandalize by what I say; but I think its high time to De-demonized my breasts!

I don't think that by me or any woman going topless should be a culture dip. I hardly think that God made something to be ashamed of!
My culture and my religious views have nothing to do with me feeling free, healthy and happy. I believe that it is healthy to get some fresh air and sun on my girls.
I also believe that if, women, start demanding and actually exercising their equal rights, then men or anyone wouldn't make such a big deal of a pair of boobs.

There are WAY too many other real issues to deal with in this culture to worry and prosecute a woman for being topless. Enough already!

Maybe your friend Melisa will someday brave her own hung ups, and will embrace ... freedom.

Good luck!

I find it amusing that in 2015 we're still debating whether women's breasts are or should be censored. Unbelievable!

I think a woman should have the choice to be topless anywhere that men are. I believe that if your friend is timid, is because someone, somewhere put the idea in her head that she should look a certain way or, that women should never, be topless in public. What a shame and disgrace.

I just turned 35 in May and things are starting to go south a bit; but I have been enjoying being topless and nude (where accepted) for the last 25 years. Haven't had any major issues.
Once in a while I get a weird and confused look, (usually by another female) but never confrontation. Maybe, because I live in FLA and most people already wear almost next to nothing or, because it is so damn hot and humid that everyone just go their own way.

Go Melisa, give it a try and set yourself free. That's what I would tell her.

Well, Summer is going away quickly. Crap!
I hope you and every other skin loving person had the chance to feel the sun and wind on their own skin.

I can't imagine being restricted by hot, uncomfortable clothing just because "someone", "somewhere" had decided that my tits are offensive or disgusting!
Its between me, my family and God.

I hope that your friend will find the courage and support to enjoy herself, just like everyone else!

Ok. gotta go back to the pool!

Hot here in Denver today!

My girlfriend and I went to a mountain creek near by. It's never crowded nor that popular.

When we got there, there was a couple traveling from Germany. They were probably in their early 40s.

The lady (Sonja) was very attractive and very sociable. Her husband Jurgen was also nice and friendly. We talked for a while about the weather and stuff. The creek had risen quite a bit in the area where we were. It formed a bit of a pond on the side and it was incredibly refreshing.
They were already in the water, so we didn't noticed right away that Sonja was topless under the water. She got up to get a pair of sunglasses. That's when we noticed.

She and her husband laughed and apoligized for being topless. They explained that in some parks in Berlin and Munich going nude or topless was quite accepted and ok.

My girlfriend and I told them that we have been a bit shy about going full monty in secluded places but we wanted to try.

My girlfriend Lynn worked up the nerve and took her top off first. I jumped in the water next to her to be supportive. We both thought that it was going to be weird but, it wasn't. We felt right at home with our new friends and we talked about everything. Including sex!

It was one of the most liberating outings that we have had. I feel totally at ease now and Lynn feels like a supermodel. We'll I have always liked her tits. She has been a bit shy about them.

I would recomend to anyone to try it. I think it is a liberating and natural thing to be nude with those who you like. No big deal.

The end of Summer. :(

I have enjoyed very much being nude out and about the house this past few months.

This was the first Summer in which I made a conscious effort to be as nude as much as possible. I live in Minnesota and humidity is pretty much present; also the discomfort that it brings. I was simply tired of powders, lotions and sprays. I'd decided just to do it and give it a good tried. I LOVE IT!!

My friends like to visit and have long talks. At first I was a bit concerned with their reaction; but if they are really my friends, they would understand or set me straight I thought.

One particular hot, muggy night, we got together in my yard to pass the time and watch the stars. I got up, disrobed and sat right back down again. There was an uncomfortable silence and then some snickering for a shot time. Then one of my girlfriends followed suit.

Pretty soon the whole bunch of us was either nude or topless.

The conversation quickly turned to self examining questions. Why haven't we done this before!?

We had a great time together and more importantly, we found out that nudity is something not to be scared of but to enjoy it. Specially if you're with people you like.

I will try my new found liberating activity every time I get a change in the up coming months. Farewell Summer!

I hope you and your friend will have some quality, nude time together.

I can understand your friend's misgivings about showing her body. I'm the same way. I read some of the posts here and looks like everyone is ready to get naked at the drop of a hat. Not me!!!

I mean, I do like being naked and feeling comfortable but, I have to be around people who I really trust.
Maybe Melissa is not ready. She may not feel at all confident with the people around her or she dosen't trust them.

I will not get naked just because I'm preassure into it. I take my time about it. SPecially if I don't really know the people there. If I'm at a party with friends I will not. But if my best friends and or boyfirned is with me and I feel safe, I will take my top off. That's it.

I think too many people get in trouble becuse they don't think about stuff and concequenses of what they may do.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not a prune or super religious. I just like to know that I can really trust the people I'm with.
Once I know who they are and I know they will not try to do something I wouldn't like, then I can be topless.

It took me like 3 years before my boyfriend and I could shower together. I still have some issues with my body but I can be topless around him now.
I don't think there's anything wrong with nudity, is just that comfort and trust issue that has to be solid for me.

My friends used to tease in school for not showing my goodies. I really had a hard time at first. I like wering nice clothes that show my boobs, but being totally naked is different.

I think Melissa needs lots of time and confidence on herself. I think she needs good friends to stand by her and not pusher to do anything she feels unconfortable. But I think that once she does she will be fine and she will like it. I do. Just takes me time.
Also, I hope there's no people there will make fun of her for any reason. That's terrible and not cool at all!
Guys are so much faster to get naked. I don't know why. I think women are too once they get used to it and loose the fear. Confidence, trust and friends. That's what Melissa needs.

Good luck

Yeah. It is always difficult for a woman who hasn't had positive re enforcement in her life to feel insecure and self conscious about her body. Our media driven society keeps presenting us with a distorted view of perfection.

I'm above average built. It's hard for me to shop for just the right clothing let alone beachwear!

I met a great guy who is now my husband and through many talks on positive outlook I've learn to like myself. Haven't master the "love" myself part yet. Ha
But, I'm confident enough to be able to wear a bathing suit to the pool or to the beach and to be topless at house of with friends.

Sadly, summer is now gone!

Your friend sounds like very nice person. Is nice that you express concern for her and her feelings.

I too, struggled with body acceptance problems all my life. Friends and husband helped me overcome my hung ups . I'm terrible at socializing from the get go . But when I feel comfortable with my company, I can loosen up pretty good now.
I'm not saying that this is for everyone!
I have close friends who are where I was a few years ago. It doesn't matter how asks they only get stronger in their obstinate ways. But I love then and they love me. They let me be me without making me feel bad or criticism.

Stay by your friend Melisa without pushing too hard. Just your friendship and understanding will make a huge difference. Let her find how beautiful she truly is. Go Melisa.

Well, I have to say that I echo some of the comments here. I think you have to build lots and lots of confidence to try something like that, specially with people you don't know.

There's no way I'm walking topless in front of people I really don't know. However, I have been going topless for the last six months.
Summer time was specially hot here in N.C. and humid. It felt nice to be topless around the house.

My boyfriend likes to be naked in the house and around the yard. We have tall fences!
He has helped me to break the shy bubble. He's a great guy who has been by my side for a long time. I trust him. So being nude around him is not a big deal.
The tough part for me was being topless for the first time we went to a nude beach with some friends.

Jake has lots of good friends; both male and female. I actually was more afraid to be topless around other women. You know how women are. Bitches sometimes!!
But, no one was judging or staring in a creepy way. Well, no, I take that back. There was one guy who will not take his eyes off my chest. I felt very uncomfortable and I finally decided to put my top back on.
I was very glad to have Jake and his friends around. I felt safe and enjoyed myself for most part.

I would say, that before anyone decides to just peel your clothes off, be aware of your surroundings and the people you're with.
It really helps tons to be with people you like, love and enjoy. There's also safety in numbers.

Last month was rainy and crappy around here but still warm. I was very comfortable being topless or nude in the house. I think it's healthy.

It's very important that your friend feels she can trust you and don't push her. Everyone has a limit that they will not dare cross. But, if the conditions are right, who knows, she may go for it and surprise herself. I did.

Good luck

Naim,

Sorry that you feel the need to put down the free choice of other people. Without making a political statement, that's the freedom we still have in this country. The freedom to choose for ourselves what suits us best in our lives.

Perhaps if you do take the time to look around, you'll learn something new that may give you a different perspective on a rigid belief.

You have the freedom to come and go as you please in the internet. Why did you choose to come here and allowed yourself to be offended is beyond my understanding. If you do not like what you see or hear, its simple; go someplace else!

MISS SUMMER!!!
We miss it already. Here in Vermont is getting chilly and windy. Luckily we have an outdoor Jacuzzi that's getting ready to be used. My husband and I like being nude in the hot-tub. It took me a few tries to feel comfortable being outside topless but after a while it was all good.
Also helps that in some parts of VT being topless in public is not against the law.

The funny thing is that a couple of summers ago; when I started practicing topless-ness, our back yard neighbor was so upset seeing me out there, baring it to the wind.
She would always slam her back door shut and said something mean for our benefit. This went on for about a year.

This year however, she started to say hello and started to talk to us over the fence. One day when it was almost 95degrees her AC went out. My husband is a heating and air service man and offered to help her. While he was working on it I offered my "cool-tub" to her so she could get some relief. She accepted and we pretty much became friends.
One very hot and muggy night this past August, she came over and wanted to know if it was ok for her to join us in the tub. We of course said yes. She quickly realized that I was topless (as usual) and my husband was naked. The expression on her face was priceless; nothing happened. We had a great time together and at the end of the Summer, she actually went topless for the very first time in her 40 somethings!

I hope that the taboo of boobs in the open is fading away. Women have the same right as men to be bared chested enjoying the sun and fun.

Your friend just may need time like I did. Like my neighbor did.

Summer, come back soon!!!

Here in South Florida the temperatures are still nice and warm. I'm visiting from Maryland and dreading going back to face, possibly a nasty winter.
Yesterday it was around 84 and the humidity was high. My boyfriend and some friends, decided to go visit a friend who lives in the Keys.
To my surprised, out hosts where taking in the sun while in the nude.
I took off my top and joined them. My boyfriend never wears a shirt. My best friend Linda who came along, also took her top off and we enjoyed the sun, drinks laughs and the sea.
I find my being topless a liberating activity. I have admit that it is a bit worrisome if you're not sure who your company is. But I like the feeling and of course some of the attention as well. Just fun.

In europe there's many place woman can be topless or being naked to. There is parks and the beach and the streets. We can be topless in some restaurants and places where there's public.

I like being topless in home and outside also. No many people argue with you on being nude outside, so we can be. I like that I can feel free and comfortable. I like feel of sun and air on my chest.
In America has to much guilt of women brests.
My 3 childrens are used to be on the beach and see many, womans and mens topless. They are no upset or sad. They are happy.

I stay topless in the home and work on the garden. Summer time is hot and wet. Is good for womans to be happy with the body.

Yesterday, my friends and I made the most of the last vestiges of Summer. We went to a friend's house and used the outdoor tub the entire afternoon and into evening while topless and free. No other feeling like it.
Maybe your firned Melissa will someday find the joy of being free. I recommend it.

Cheers from the Midwest!

Wow, I hope that your friend will someday find the joy of being naked. We call it being --free--
The thought of being naked, anywhere used to bother me. I used to put too much weight on other people's opinion.
That changed about 2 years ago when I broke my hip and ribs. I had to wear a body body cast for a few weeks. The heat drove me insane.
When I was able to take the cast off, I went and sat in front to the water here in Min. for a long time only wearing a mesh t-shirt, It felt fantastic; specially in high humidity.
One night I decided to look up the laws concerning topless-ness in my state and county; it turned out that it was not illegal so, I tried it.
I have been wearing mesh shirts or nothing at all ever since.
I like my body and I have no problem with it now. Be FREE!

Oh my god. Why the hell would anyone be afraid of having their titties out?!
Men do it. Why wouldn't a woman who will most definatly have a nicer chest be ashamed of putting her's out? This is the 21st century and women have the right to fell and be comfortable...anywhere.
My tits are out as soon as the sun hits them. I love that feeling. I will never change back.

Hummm, you're friend may be having some deeper issues than you think. Body image is great concern for a large portion of the population. If she feels comfortable and safe in some situations I have no doubt she will try go top-free. Trust me. Every woman wants to be appreciated and desired at some point. Give her time and encouragement.
