Parents what age do you think it's ok for letting your daughter wear a bikini?

Not a parent, but I think everything has been said, it depends on the kind of bikini. Like some bathing suits are more sexual than your usual bikini right, I don't think my daughter should wear things that sexualise her body until she wants to and is aware of what she's doing. Specific age? Not sure but around 15 ig

I don't know that it matters. As long as the usual bits are covered up. My ex-sisters wore bikini's nearly all their lives, when it came time to swim. They were 12 and 8 when we first got the pool installed in the back yard but, before that, we'd go up my our summer home every weekend and swim in the creek running across the front yard. If not there, we'd go to the river 2 blocks from our house.

I dont feel a bikini is really an issue provided its not one that's tiny or one that's comes with thong bottoms

I will never let my daughters wear a bikini but for other people I think 16..

I would say at any age is appropriate as long as it isn't overly revealing. I understand that girls like to be comfortable and be proud of their bodies but they also must be self aware of the audience around them.

men are shamed for doing this same thing. never been a fan of bikinis in general though personal preference wouldn't date a woman who would wear a bikini in a public setting nothing wrong with wearing a tshirt and shorts to swim in men do it just fine. not all men take their shirts off either so repliers dont try to say the men get to go around with their chest and stomach out all the time because thats not true over weight men do get shamed for showing off their bodies. men are never allowed to be comfortable and are considered toxic for being proud of their bodies. so i dont see why its acceptable for women to flaunt about and do this either.

Mine was wearing two piece suits by 5 and probably was in a bikini around 12

As long as they can spell it, they can wear it. No dictionary or looking it up online.

Any age from which onwards she feels uncomfortable to swim naked :)

[Drumlin2001]

Wouldn't be my preferred costume but not sure I would stop her wearing one

[jahaims]

When she pays her own bills. If I do my job right, she won't want to she off her body publicly to strangers for attention to build her self esteem.

I've worn them my whole life but they covered less and less as I got older.

[Dat-Alpha-Lion]

Do you wear anything now?

[hbkfan]

To me I don't care as long as they wear something to the beach lol

[Anonymous]

As soon as she wants to wear one, if she ever does.

At 18 they're out of contract and legally responsible for themselves..
