So I went to a pool party and...

So, yesterday, I went to this pool party for my friend's birthday. Strangely enough, I was the only one there in a bikini while the other girls wore one-pieces. Talk about standing out... :s-smilie:

Is there a current trend that I don't know about?

Who cares?

Do they have good bodies?

Perhaps they're trying to cover up their Christmas, and January, and February pounds.

Most of them are slim, some of them are even slimmer than me. And yet you see movies where 98% of women wear bikinis and 99.999999% of men wear shorts. Society rules on swimwear = broken all the time.

I remember gym class and pool parties in my younger days. I was the only one in a Speedo and no-one ever batted an eyelid. The other guys wore shorts because they felt comfortable in them, not necessarily because they wanted to hide their bodies more. At least that's what they told me anyway. :smile:

A current trend- cold weather. Unless it was in Las Vegas or Australia.

Why? Some of them look like models in comparison and I look like a chubby person in comparison to them.

And it was indoors.

Guys are different. Most of them wear shorts so why was I the odd one out when most girls wear bikinis? :s-smilie:

Movies aren't reality, though. I've seen girls wear more one pieces than bikinis in my life. Maybe bikinis are more suited towards the beach like swim shorts are?
Maybe they were uncomfortable donning a bikini for whatever reason!

Maybe but it surely contradicts what I see in movies. :s-smilie:
