Womens bathing suits
 
Does anyone else prefer the look of a clean non-print one-piece over a bikini? I don't care how much of a knockout body the woman has, I think they all look better in a one piece. Just white, black or a primary color. No designs.

Who's with me? :)

Spent some time on the pooper looking through the Lands End catalog again huh?

I probably agree with you. Sometimes less is more and in this instance I would call the one-piece "less" and the two-piece "more." Here's why: The MB 330SL is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. Its lines are classic and stunning. But what if you paint a bunch of stripes and swooshes and flames on it? It would ruin the viewer's ability to see the car's lines. One piece bathing suits are the equivalent of a real good but simple paint job that allows the car's lines to be featured. Yes, a nice, slender, athletic female is about as attractive as she can be in a nice one-piece suit.

And besides.......the debate is a clever way to get guys to post photos that could help illustrate their assertions.

Missed that one, but I did just get the wife a suit.

Try spending some time around girls' water polo meets - makes you feel like a pervert.

One piece here, I think it shows of a woman's lines better.

911boost 06-11-2007 03:31 PM

Let me just add that my smart ass remark was by no means denying the fact that a one peice can actually be sexier than a very skimpy bikini.

lendaddy 06-11-2007 03:34 PM

No hem lines(is that the right term?) or frill edges or blouse-like uppers, just tight and clean like this:

a good one piece can look good, but the biggest problem is the very poor tan lines.

I grew up on the beach.

nothing, and I mean nothing, is a better sight than a hot, tanned, mid-summer body with a 2 piece - worn around the ankles. the contrasts and those tan lines . . .

The right bathing suit of any cut can look right on the right woman. I like them all.

Actually those ultra skimpy suits are exactly what I don't like. There is something very sexy about modesty, and something very un-sexy about not having any.

masraum 06-11-2007 08:23 PM

I can appreciate either when done in the right way. Just like a too modest suit in the wrong cut or on the wrong woman can be boring and a too skimpy suit can be only moderately sexy, either can be super sexy in the right circumstances.

I've known girls that had looks that only ranked 5 or 6 on the 1-10 scale, but were so sexy that they were a 12 in the 1-10 scale. I've also known women that ranked 9 or 10 on the looks scale, but couldn't be sexy to save their lives. It's the same way with bathing suits. There is no black and white, only infinite shades of gray.
