I think you should have a nice swimming suit that looks beautiful and fits you good for the ladies and the men.

I would never wear a speedo it is not modest and it would not probably protect me if I hit the water wrong. You got to leave something to the imagination for the ladies. I think men should wear a jock strap you don't want to be bulging out all over the place and that skin is very sensitive there and for the ladies too.. You got to protect yourself.

You really don't want skin cancer in all those bare areas most uncomfortable when treated not to mention how uncomfortable the sunburn will be .Do the g string baking at home and if you want to swim wear something that is water safe .You do know that you encourage the youth of today to not always give respect to women if you put yourself on show leave something to the imagination for you single girls .' Sun safe skin cancer is a death sentence .

People should consider what they're wearing, by observing the environment. In a "family environment" a g-string would be inappropriate. However, a party with a lot of single people, in a "vegas-like" atmosphere - maybe it would be okay.

Cant believe I read that previous answer without vomiting. Blame the victim is so not cool! Yuck.

It isn't just beach / swimming pool attire either. There are many people, mainly young women, who simply do not properly think what they're wearing, and then complain and wonder why they get "unwanted attention" ... if you didn't want attention, then you shouldn't have dressed in very little clothing. 🙄

Cest juste des fesses

Non,cest chacun pour soi la nudite des fesses.

I don’t believe so, what and who are the wearers trying to impress

Up to person

really your eyes are your choices

You can wear whatever you want to go to the beach. If others don't like what you are wearing they can look the other way

I think it depends on where you are and who is there. If you are in a big family area, I think suits that barely cover your body are disrespectful. However, if you go to Myrtle Beach in the US during spring break, just about anything is appropriate.

If you are so self-conscious about G-string bathers, why don't you pick something like a bikini-type bather which would cover a bit more than the G-string? Many young girls wear them. They look comfy and decent.🥰

Yes I think sso g strings are not correct in our beaches in Perth

yes too much skin being shown these days.

Gstrings are not appropriate in public places

Yes I think a g-string is inappropriate for public spaces.

Whatever you feel comfortable wearing, as long as it's in good taste, and you're not putting your your health at risk you should be fine.

We need to cover more of our body to try and avoid Melanoma.

No we do need a cover up to prevent burning

For those who think showing skin at the beach is inappropriate, perhaps the beach isn't for you. This is not the 1950's. Do we want to teach our children that they should be ashamed of their bodies? Enough of the body shaming. Wear what you want, and stuff anybody who wants your to conform to their prudish ways!!

Personally I do not think g-strings are appropriate - even for those with a good figure. Not on public beaches.

There has been too much skin shown now for many years but if you comment you are labelled prudish, a puritan, old fashioned as well as other names. On the other hand I don't enjoy seeing people who are covered but are huge with flesh hanging out all over the place. That too is revolting. What we need is modesty, a very uncommon trait these days.

Inappropriate - yes Not good for young people to be gawking at. And could be targeted by perverts.

These young things who wear next to nothing put themselves at risk. Filthy men are everywhere. And then there are those who think they GREAT with next to nothing with piles of motley dimpled flesh on view for all to see. Even in my younger days when I had a good figure I found it really hard to buy something that covered me up in all the right places. Now that I am older I seldom go to the beach (hate the sun) and breast cancer and mastectomies have left me rather disfigured. All I'm saying is look appropriate. And yes sarongs and shirts that keep the sun off you are great and are very flattering.

Given the prospect of skin cancer not a good choice.

It does not look nice but you are at the beach

Probably inappropriate for public pools or beaches. If it's not too crowded it's not as bad

A sarong is a good option

If it’s a public pool there should be rules about g strings!

Your body your choice but when young families with kiddies are around the right thing to do is slip on a cover up otherwise move further down the beach away from the public where you can flaunt all you like.

Don’t go to the beach anymore too many odd looking people showing off way to much for my liking plus I have a pool so are much more comfortable lolling around that

Everyone should cover up. No one wants to see skimpy bikinis on our beaches. Families use the beaches and children should not be exposed to bum cracks and boobs in their faces. Also our harsh sun needs to be kept away from our sensitive skin. The more that is covered up the safer it is on all counts.

I think it all depends on how much Respect people have for themselves. Are just deliberately being provocative? In wearing the skimpiest beacj wear possible are you foing it to attract attention and probably the wrong sort of attention? When leaving the beach do you have to go a long way throug sand dunes or areas where there are lots of bushes etc.? Today there are so many weird, and often nasty, people who won't bother to ask for consent, around are you Safe walking alone back to your vehicle? Remember even if you go to what you think is an almost deserted beach you may not be safe from predators. You may have the Right to wear what you like but that does not preclude you from looking after your own safety as much as possible.

Yes g strings are inappropriate in public spaces, Sure the person can wear them but not where other people feel uncomfortable. I would say G string wearer have some respect for other people

No I wouldn't because people would be blinded. But also because I don't want creepy dudes looking at me, neither do I want to enrage any mums that have to have awkward conversations with their hubbies or little kids - because I genuinely care about other people. But if ya don't give a hoot about anyone but yourself then go ahead.Edited 15-Jul-24 14:54pm

I agree it is a free country. I also say yes it is too much of a good thing. Also No bikini for me any time soon. But to each his or her own. Good day all.

It's plain outright immodest in my view.

Poor children don't have a choice it's shoved into their face everywhere, public pools, beaches, wet and wild. And truly nothing is left for the imagination at all anymore. So sad 😞

I don't think g-strings should be worn at the swimming pool because you're too close to children. They're fine at the beach though.

honestly i wouldn't want to put my bare arse where other people have sat down. who knows what they have.

What do you think they wear on our nudes. Beach?

TOO MUCH EXPOSURE THESE DAYS

Be comfortable but try not to gross other people out.

In a free country what is acceptable should be whatever one wants to wear, within reason.. can't go nude but just about anything else should be deemed acceptable.. if you don't like it don't look! What's unacceptable is staring at a person's body inappropriately

Depends on how much you want to be treated for Skin Cancers latter in life. If you want an all over coverage of treatment areas wear nothing at all if you don't wear head to toe covering.

I wear shorts and t-shirts, I don't have the body I once had. But, when I did, I didn't mind showing it off in a tiny bikini.

Personally I don't think they are very flattering to the figure. They must be so uncomfortable.

WHO CARES. G-String or Hijab, to each his own. Most beaches are big enough for you not to be close to G-strings or anything else that you deem inappropriate. Either move or don't go to beach, go to pool, they have rules for what you wear

Sure are inappropriate in public, l think there should be some mystery in live.

To each their own. A person can wear whatever they feel comfortable in. There are even nudist beaches which I would not go to myself because it's just not for me. But if I saw people in g-strings at the beach I wouldn't care as long as their front was properly covered. For all the prudes if you don't like seeing almost naked people then the beach is not a place for you, just avoid it and go somewhere else where you will feel safe or stay indoors. It's scary out there :)

Its everyone's personal choice what to wear

It seems to me that this is an area where no societal norms have been established in regards to g strings, mankinis, and so on. As a result, people are pushing the envelope by wearing whatever they please. It took ten to twenty years or more for the bikini to be accepted as 'normal' but with today's speed of change, maybe only five years will see these brief garments accepted as ordinary beach wear

Not something I'd wear but hey you do you.

No I do believe you need some thing to cover your self up with like an oversized top or a gown as if you wanted to go to lunch there are dress codes. Same with shopping but it's also modesty, do you really want people to see your bottom? G-strings should not be worn every where beach is okay but it is a dangerous world out there and you never know who is watching, following or has evil ideas they may act upon. Too scary these days but if you got it flaunt it but be careful and know your limits. Edited 15-Jul-24 11:42am

I think it's up to the individual. Age, size, race, shape and gender you should be able to wear what ever makes you happy. If people look at you in disgust (or so to speak) should just be avoided. If they want to waste their time staring, commenting and joking about others they really are wasting their time and enjoying the day. Forget about everyone around you they are not important.

budgie smugglers, we used to call them

It depends on your shape, it is not very becoming if you are a bigger person

I personally think so, but to each his/her own!

It depends, if there are boys it could be dangerous. They may target you or follow you, so be careful.

We seem to be coming more and more prudish, almost back to Victorian times. Utterly ridiculous. If you don't like to see something, don't look or don't put yourself in situations where you are at risk of seeing something you don't want to see. Do not apply your standards to everyone else. That is what is not appropriate.

I enjoy it tremendously when I see a pretty girl in a one piece speedo. A bathing suit for every possible reason, season, or venue.

Hey - I'm 77 - so I don't have any reason to show my body to anyone!

People should have a common senses of decency especially in a public place. Not everyone, adults or children need to see barely there swimming togs or a huge rear end in a thong.

TO EACH HIS OR HER OWN .

No thanks, I'll keep my privates, private!

No one's opinions should matter - who cares what other people think, right? A tank top would cover it up.

TO EACH HIS OR HER OWN .

People are going to wear what they wear. If someone is offended by what someone is wearing then unfortunately don't go to the beach. I don't think you should stop wearing something that someone else is going to not agree. Nothing wrong with G-Strings and any body type that wears them.

Inappropriate in my opinion. No one needs to see that

It depends

G-strings are okay in your backyard pool. At the beach there are children and adults, the children do not need to see a g-string on a person. Not all bodies suit a g-string some look horrendous, so don't wear one at the beach.

Should be common sense code of conduct for all concenting peoples while on premasis and or in use of . Make it simple people 😀...k.i.s.s theory

No opinion

With a body like mine it is best if I don't flaunt it

Everybody's body is beautiful in one way in another. You should never be ashamed of the skin you're in. G strings are entirely appropriate for both men and women and other ofcourse. I wear xxxl mankini and I must say the attention I get a is astonishing. I do lather up with sun screen though just in case. However I never venture out into the water I just slowly turn on a beach towel to get that beautiful sun tan Nice day Edited 15-Jul-24 08:37am

I work in a fashion shop in Noosa Heads there are many people that wander around in their swim suits eating shopping etc but some just wear the smallest G string, they are nude except for a tiny bit that covers their privates, they have no consideration for other people and children.

on the one hand - if you've got it flaunt it, and on the other PLEASE it is not a good look, so turn your eyes and don't bother looking. I often think there is no such thing as modesty these days (showing my age I know.)

dental floss!!!!

Some people can get away it others cant.

Sun cancer is on the horizon.

If you want to be nude , wear a g-string, that is all it's covering.

I am covered some what , I guess if you have the body then totally go for it

No just a normal bathing suit

No

At a public beach or pool in Australia most people will wear what they feel comfortable in. I have rarely seen anyone wearing less than a bikini( not g string) or board shorts or even " budgie smugglers".That being said there are a few brave soles that will sun-baked topless or wear g strings. I say brave because the risk of them being photographed,harassed,verbally abused or even approached by people who think they have free reign to be able to touch them because they are wearing less. We do have nudist beaches here too. Which are meant to be ONLY for naturalists,but still have those inquisitive people that like to go just to perve. I don't really care what others do. I like to wear a swimsuit if swimming but will change or throw a light dress over when finished. More worried about people that use the beach for " other activities ". ie, binge drinking,toileting,sex. Not appropriate in a public area where children or families gather.

I don't think they are appropriate in a public place but it makes them feel comfortable and happy then so be it.

When I go to the beach, I'm dressed in jeans, t-shirt and sandals, and I walk along the edge of the water looking for 'treasures' such as pretty shells, or rocks, polished glass, driftwood or rusty metal from who-knows-what! More fun than getting in the icy Pacific Northwest Puget Sound water. ;-D

i go to the beach in my backyard fish pond, and them bass and catfish don't care if i am nekkid, and my neighbor is 1/2 mile up at the end of our road,,, ahhhhhhhh freeeedom 🤣

Not on fat and grossly overweight people. Puts one right off their lunch. Yuk.

Why do you need to show off your bare body? Isn't your body a precious and personal part of your being. I do not like nudist. Cover up people, Be respectful of others

Not appropriate where there are children. Wear it in you own home.

They can be inappropriate but I believe they are ok to wear at the beach

Why wear a g-string, just go to a nudist beach.

I honestly could care less about what others wear.

Yes

why not

I think you need to be respectful, tHere are kids at the beach & to show lots & lots of flesh it not appropriate. G-strings are more common now, to wear it to the beach as part of you swim wear is ok

If you don't like it, don't look at it
