Do guys prefer girls in bikinis?

Do guys only like girls in bikinis? My mom won’t let me get one for summer, but I don’t want to blend into the sand!

 

Dave: Your mom’s directive may be a blessing in disguise (parental instructions have a tendency to do that). A less-revealing suit just might attract a guy who’s interested in what’s inside your skin rather than how much of it is showing.   

 

Bill: You’ve heard of WWJD? In beach fashion, a good rule to go by is WWPD (What Would Pamela Do?). After all, the Baywatch babe spent a half dozen seasons in a one-piece, and the ratings did just fine.

No matter what type of swimsuit you choose, make sure you feel completely comfortable in it! Think about if it can handle the diving board, the slide, laps, and serious splash fights. DO NOT GO STRAPLESS! When I was 12 I had a removable strap bathing suit. I did not have the straps on and went to pull myself out of the 4 feet section of the community pool. When doing this my bathing suit came down and my chest was totally exposed. Only a couple of girls saw but I learned my lesson. I never got in the pool with out my straps again.
And when trying to impress the guys, keep it simple, simple, casual, covered. In my many years of experience, guys approach me way more when I am in t-shirts than low-cut dresses.

Alright so I'm not sure my parents would let me--I'll reason with them--but I need to ask a swim-apparel related question.
So, I need help deciding what kind of swimsuit to get! Here's some facts you'll need: I'm a 34C or 36B cup (either fits), which usually makes it hard to find a tankini that's big enough for my boobs but not insanely loose around the rest of me; I hate suits that have no padding in the bra area; I've always found myself a little chubby in the lower stomach area (though everyone tells me I'm too skinny) so I'm not sure how a bikini would look; I don't want anything too low-cut.
Any ideas on swimsuits that would work for me (bikini or otherwise)? Thanks so much for the help!

I need advice on what to do. There’s this cute guy who’s my neighbor and he’s older than me, around 3-4 years older. I see him at the bus stop almost every day but I don’t have the guts to talk to him. What should I do?
(from my friend!!!!)

 

Hi Girl,

You can always start with a "Hey, How are you?" and ask how his day was. Try to just make small talk as you are waiting for the bus. Time passes faster when you are talking. It will never hurt to go out of your way to try and make a new friend. Just smile and feel confident in yourself.

MOD MOD M-O-D! okay so the day before skool gets out, our team (which is like half the 6th graders, they just divide it to make it easier)is going to the pool for a field trip. and i need to buy a new bathing suit because we arent allowed to wear "string bikinis" and so i was wondering if u had advice about wat kind of bathing suit to get. like i want a 2-peice but i just dont know. and i guess i am really self-critical and think im fat so i am kinda uncomfortable with all hese guys i see everyday seeing me in a bathing suit. so yeah plz help!!

 

Hey girl,

Tankinis are a great option for a two-piece suit that offers plenty of coverage. If you want, you can also wear boy shorts too. Another suggestion is to get a cut-out one piece swim suit as well.
