I wore a bikini and nothing happened...

Love this article.

Big girls sets a goal to wear a bikini next summer. Everyone assumes she is planning to lose weight. Nah - the goal is simply to...WEAR. A. BIKINI.

Personally I like seeing big girls in bikinis. I hate it when they cover up with shorts and nonsense like that.

Good on her!

An extract:

The reason these people do not want to see a fat body in a bikini is because traditionally, that garment is something a woman earns by proving herself attractive enough to exist. If fat women begin wearing them without shame or fear, what's next? Will they have self-esteem? Will they demand respect? Then what will keep them in their proper place? How would conventionally attractive people judge them?

Remember  Gidget's friend, Larue, she wore a full length kaftan with enormous hat for sun protection.

That about sum's up my wardrobe at the waterside.

If only all women could be as comfortable in their bodies as the women who wote the article.

Mr Elephant and I used to go skinny dipping in our younger days. We have a very nice nude beach in Bunbury and nobody ever criticises your size or shape there. Sadly our aging skins can no longer  take the sun the way they used to so our beachgoing days are pretty much a thing of the past.
