ddickinson: So we have another guy with a dirty mind. :-)
Part of the reason many see the mankini as dirty and the bikini not is due to the male dominated society we have (not starting a whole sexist debate here, just saying). Men enjoy seeing a woman in a skimpy outfit (who doesn't :-)), but seeing a man dressed like that makes many guys feel uncomfortable, so the whole concept of things like mankinis been dirty arrises, a bit like how many are put off by guys wearing budgie smugglers. :-)
(Had to look up "Budgie Smugglers" ;-p)
They all seem a bit dirty to me, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Dirty can be good :-) ... Personally, I find it a bit odd that anyone would wear such skimpy clothing... but to each their own, of course :-)
Do most women feel uncomfortable seeing other women in bikinis? (Genuine question. I have no idea.)
