Guys don't seem to like seeing girls wearing (real) swimsuits

I mean, just look at these!

Yeah, that's a copy-paste from another post, but why the hell not, another author-appeal thread.

By "real" I mean ones that aren't basically underwear museum-pieces that are hardly suited for actual swimming.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 01:32:04

Those are all really nice. Like I said in the other thread, depends on the girl.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-04 01:35:09

Now I just have to make a thread about fonts just to screw with you.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 01:35:36

Add 4 more links please.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-04 01:36:13

Any preferences?

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-04 01:36:45

Also,

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 01:37:10

None specifically. Probably magenta or neon colored ones with Form Fitting appeal.

I just wanted one for every hour.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 01:37:32

OH MY GOD THAT MADE ME LMAO

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 01:37:55

I would MOFW that if it were on TV Tropes.

I have much fewer of these uploaded. I just find browsing catalogs the easiest way to get my fix, and random people don't typically pose in competition swimwear that for the camera, with the usual exception of swim team/meet pictures. That, and I'd rather not run afoul of people's privacy rights, so I'm hesitant to upload pics of that.

Let me know if you want more.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 01:51:19

I certainly won't ask you to stop.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 02:07:16

DO IT

[Deleted User] · 2011-02-04 02:48:18

One piece is okay, but I think two piece is better.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 10:57:51

I don't have any preference in a general sense. There are girls who look better in one, and there are girls who look better in two.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-04 12:51:14

I'd rather figure out a way for imageshack to make albums or something.

Like, right now, can you see "next" or "previous" photos, when I post a link like http://img222.imageshack.us/i/tytmgurd.jpg/ ?

Also, yeah, there you go, another two-piece picture. I still think tankinis are generally sexier than bikinis.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 12:52:55

I'd look at it, but I'm in public and I'd feel creepy.

Seorsum · 2011-02-04 12:54:14

Actually, there are next and previous buttons. They're on the right hand side of the screen with two thumbnails over them.

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-04 13:07:37

Oh sweet, so that means you _can_ browse the rest of my uploads.

Here is the first one: http://img441.imageshack.us/i/z2startingblockgra.jpg/

Seorsum · 2011-02-04 13:13:32

/me resists the urge to browse.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 14:11:01

totally shopped

glennmagusharvey · 2011-02-04 14:37:07

Pictures from Dolfin's line of team apparel are definitely totally shopped. Same person, same pose, same suit, different colors. Not that I mind--it becomes "pick your favorite color".

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 14:43:01

I mean shopped in terms of background. Most of the time the light fragmentation in the background doesn't match the light being put onto the model. They shouldn't be super shiny if the pool water is almost completely transparent.

Central Avenue · 2011-02-04 15:32:05

I still think tankinis are generally sexier than bikinis.

Agreed.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 15:36:15

I like tankinis too.

Pykrete · 2011-02-04 16:29:14

Joining the love for real swimsuits. Screw Theiss, sometimes it looks better if it doesn't look like it's going to fall off.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 16:30:38

^Agreed. Except when it does fall off. I have no objections to that happening.

Pykrete · 2011-02-04 16:31:37

Meh. Enough people outright show skin that I get jaded to it and think they're trying too hard. Highlighting things works better for me.

ClockworkUniverse · 2011-02-04 16:32:34

I agree. I'm just saying that I'm not against unexpected nudity.

LouieW · 2011-02-04 16:45:30

glennmagusharvey,
I am not sure I totally understand your point here. Are you saying that the only "real" swimsuits are one pieces or the like? I can agree that they tend to be more functional for actual swimming.

Still, I was under the impression people did not tend to wear two pieces for swimming functionality anyway. I thought a lot of the reasoning there was about showing off or something like that. I could certainly be wrong though.

Anyway, I guess you could say I prefer one piece swimsuits. However, not being one to swim or frequent beaches or the like, I suppose my opinion here does not matter much.

I tend to avoid giving fashion advice since I am not very good at it and I do not think it is really my place to judge what most men or women like to wear anyway. Of course, that does not mean that I do not find some clothing choices more ascetically pleasing than others. I do, but I probably should just keep my mouth shut about that thing because it comes down to tastes.

Tnophelia · 2011-02-04 16:46:04

Either way, I still like the stringup bra-like bikinis as opposed to the weird vinyl-feeling ones that are supposed to be water proof. If it gets soaked, I don't mind, it's just when it feels like my nipples are laminated it bugs me.

Howdy, Stranger!
