Every once in a while, I would see dating profiles of women of course, like 5 or 6 regular pictures, and one with her in a bikini.

 

Some seem less tasteful (tugging on the bottom of her bikini bottom so you can see the panty line or perhaps her pressing her boobs together with her upper arms....kind of poses that you would see in MAXIM magazine)

 

Others, are more of women you'd see in a Target or Sears flyer, modeling bikini in a rather G rated fashion.

 

Laying out by the pool, looking more classy than attention seeking.

 

OR

 

Do some of you ladies make an effort to not have ANY kind of swimwear in your pictures whatsoever?

not a fan of pictures of myself in bikinis.... i'm not confident enough to display that kind of thing on a website where a lot of strangers can view the pictures. so no, i would never put a bikini pic on my dating profile.

 

i don't mind them on facebook, since my settings are so that only my friends can see pictures of me.

So, you wouldn't even put a "day at the beach" related photo on a dating site?

 

Like a picture of you in your bikini with your other friends?

 

There's actually this one picture of a woman who is a competitive body builder.....a lot of pics of her on stage with the assigned number to her bikini bottom. Not sure if that means anything or not....but, it shows off her hobby, says she's a personal trainer.

 

I was wondering in what situation would it be acceptable to put up a bikini photo on your dating profile?

 

Then there are those women who put on a bikini JUST for the dating profile....they put one on, go to the bathroom, take a cell phone pic....then go back and change into their regular clothes...lol..or so it seems.

Women who are less attractive need to appear more loose to compete against their better looking or younger peers whether in real life or online.

if i had a "day at the beach" photo in which i thought i looked attractive... then maybe. i still don't think i would though, i can completely understand wanting a body shot on a dating profile so people don't think you're something you're not but i still feel that choosing a picture of yourself in a bikini shows that you want people to see that you are "hot" and able to wear a bikini.

 

as for the lady who posted her competitive body building shots, that's something completely different - it's more about the body building than it is about how amazing you think you look in a bikini and therefore how attractive you'll be to the opposite sex because of your body in a bikini.

 

everyone chooses pictures for dating sites in which they think they look good.. because they want to be seen as attractive. i don't feel i look attractive in bikinis so that's why i don't post those pictures.

Takes guts to post a bikini pic for everyone to see ..

No I wouldn't post one. It would attract the wrong type of men. I wouldn't be looking for a ONS or FWB.

 

Women get enough sleazy messages, add a bikini and you're just taking in a truckload of terrible mail.

 

I like the way I look in a bikini, men want to see? They can go to the beach with me instead.

It is so common place and normal it really isn't. The typical attire of a young woman today is incredibly short shorts that are extra tight to show off a camel toe and a tank top with plunging neckline, midriff exposed, and sheer enough to see anything underneath. Basically women are always exposed all the time especially in warmer climates. Whether one likes it or not is up to them.

I prefer nudes. ;)

I guess I'll never see my heart's desire in a bikini. I hate the beach and swimming.

I bet most women would have no qualms with posting such a pic if they lived in an area that is a beach community like California or FL, right?

WOW. That's terrible! Haha.

Reminds me of the time I passed a profile of a woman with lingerie pictures.

No surprises there.

With how many photos on the Internet there are of girls taking nude pics in their bathroom mirrors done completely for fun, I doubt they have many qualms left.

:lmao::lmao: It's a shame I don't remember her name, was an attractive blonde.

Just browse around OKC, not uncommon there.

No hot tub either?

Probably on the Saint Lawrence or Lake Ontario.

Nope.

 

 

Lake Champlain might be another choice.

Welllllll, maybe you're right. I guess if its a shot of them having fun at the beach or a natural setting. Bathroom bikini shots are LOL tho

Oh you haven't seen the vlogs of what I'm wearing today have you or the ones about their hauls from their shopping sprees at a variety of boutiques?

I've never posted a bikini pic but I have no objection to a classy, beach type scene.

 

I feel the same way about men's pics. I hate seeing men flex their muscles in front of a mirror or and other obvious shot. But if it's a beach scene, then it's ok.

Were you ever really going to be able to strip on the internet for money?

The what?

Vlog is a video log or in other words video diary. Girls on youtube devote vlogs to what they wear and what they buy. It is the perfect synergy of mass consumerism, attention grabbing, and internet culture.

Oh, currently where I live the blogshops/vlogs are all the taiwanese/japanese girly frilly look which is in fashion atm. Not so much midriff baring, short shorts, which is why bikini... probably not over here
