Is it okay for a girl to post bikini pictures when she has a boyfriend?

The answer to this question is a little complicated. On one hand, you could argue that it is perfectly fine for a girl to post bikini pictures when she has a boyfriend. After all, she is just showing off her body and enjoying the summer sun. What harm could it possibly do?

On the other hand, you could argue that it is not okay for a girl to post bikini pictures when she has a boyfriend. After all, he might not be happy with her flaunting her body in public. Additionally, it could make other girls feel self-conscious about their own bodies.

So, what is the verdict? Is it okay for a girl to post bikini pictures when she has a boyfriend? The answer is: it depends. If you are comfortable with your boyfriend seeing you in a bikini, then go ahead and post those pictures. However, if you think he might not be happy about it, or if you think it might make other girls feel bad, then you might want to rethink posting those pictures.

Id dumb your shits rs, not because of jealousy or to put my foot in how many followers you have... if you need to post pictures of your body for everyone else too see then there is something im not doing right if you feel it nessasary to post pictures of your body to feel good about yourself... thats how i feel about that. Obviously an opinion but im sure there's other dudes out there that dont mind that. Its discretionary to the person i guess, id ask before and be real before you lose the image you have in your boyfriends head.

To be honest if I had a girlfriend , I'd accept it as long as it's tasteful and not rachet like some of those micro bikinis are.

My point is if in relationship, both people must remain aware of one another's feelings.

It's not my place to keep her from having fun, but one must remain respect and morals to certian extent to respect one another.

I think it just depends on the photo and how you and your boyfriend feel about it. Bathing suit pics can be innocent. If you wanted to share a picture of yourself having a great day at the beach then I think it can be ok. If you’re in a bikini and making suggestive poses or facial expressions or intentionally trying to take a sexy photo, then I don’t think it’s ok. Also some guys don’t mind if their girlfriends post sexy pics. Some guys do mind. I suppose it all just depends.

lumos · Accepted Answer

Yes. She can post whatever pics she wants. If he's not ok with it, he doesn't have to be her boyfriend. Pretty simple really.

Apple1996 · Accepted Answer

Yes considering she is already going outside in public like that so I don't know how a pic is any different

Apope16 · Answer

Yesss. of course it is. No boyfriend has a right to control your own pictures. Thats pretty crazy. If I had a girlfriend I would want my girlfriend to look hot where other people were jealous.

AviatorTom · Answer

Sure, why not? A bikini is just a woman's bathing suit.

pervertedjester · Answer

As long as he gets to see it on you first, shouldn't be an issue.

coachTanthony · Answer

Amazing to see all the user names that are no longer here anymore on this thread.

MzAsh · Answer

Why wouldn’t it be ok is the real question.

BeMuse · Answer

If you have a boyfriend and you're still taking selfies to get attention, you have some serious self esteem issues... If pictures are taken of you doing stuff at the beach or something like that for memories (e. g. you just caught a big redfish your first time surf fishing) and you just so happen to be wearing a bikini that day, then no big deal. If your twisting around with a selfie stick to take an ass picture with your bikini on in the middle of winter in your apartment, well that's another issue.

btbc92 · Answer

Ask your parents and see if their happy with you doing it. I wouldn't. And she can do whatever she want because she at that point is not married. If she was married, that is a different story. Everything has consequences. At the end of the day, who are you trying to impress, and why?

This answer is given and implied that it's not a personal question towards you. The real deal here is this, don't do anything you will be judged for and unproud of later.

Flamdring · Answer

It is totally fine to post bikini pictures. As men we can post our pictures wearing boxers or even nothing at all, so girls can do the same. Body is just body. If you go to the beach while being in a relationship, would you feel ashamed? Men and women will look at you and your partner and while some will just notice you, others will stare. Basically, I see no reason to control someone or feel controlled. It is never healthy.

knallpilz · Answer

Depends on the boundaries of the relationship.

If it's OK for him to look at other girl's bikini pictures, sure.
Even if not, if he's OK with it...

Thing's don't have to always even out on each relation level exactly, all the time.
It just has to be balanced overall. Maybe she has more freedom in regards to being eye candy for other guys. And in turn he has more freedom in his boyfriend duties. Whatever that may be. As long as the parties involved know what they're doing and are OK with the deal.

molonski2 · Answer

Its never a good idea full stop ! And she should have a lot more respect for herself , however , if she is going to have any social media " influence " she will have to post this and a great deal more , and thats whats happening.

Its like asking can a stripper have a boyfriend? The answer is of course yes , although long term the relationship will get testy , really , who wants the pussy ground up against some guys erect member? What kind of dude accepts that? One who loves easy money and doesn't care how it comes.

The bikini piccies have nothing to do with whether she has a boyfriend , she is just asking for further affirmation , its not a good idea.

Mazet · Answer

Of cause it's totally fine or should be. It's not like they married or something not saying that those married ones can't. But it shouldn't be an issue. It's only a picture and were those people who will see the picture, were they at that location where the picture was taken they would have seen u anyway.

Anonymous · Answer

Yea.. why wouldn't she? She's her own person, right? Your reaction to her posting pics of herself wearing a bikini is totally off-base. Honestly, if you're this threatened by something as harmless as bikini pics, then you need to do the right thing, save her a lot of time and stress, and leave the relationship. Be honest with her: "I'm sorry, but I cannot change or be okay with you living your life. I do not deserve you. I will either be alone the rest of my life, or find a partner who will want me to control every aspect of their life. You deserve someone who actually values and cares for you being you." Tell her that, and then get out of her life.

Seriously, "is it okay for a girl to post bikini pics when she has a boyfriend"... what a joke

xBree · Answer

YES FREE WORLD! PUSSY POWER! lol sorry I'm a bit tipsy 😂

BraydenC · Answer

Obviously wearing a bikini to the beach and having people look is normal, but it seems social media has twisted society up in an alternate reality almost. Say your girlfriend was standing on the beach and people on her social media were there in real life, they look her up and down, zoom in on the boobs and then say yeah I really like that straight to the your faces, should the boyfriend be angry or let it go? I think any good man would be angry, man with little care wouldn't, as any good woman would take into account the man's feelings before letting others engage with a photo of his ladies body, what if boyfriends dad and grandparents see this? STOP DOING SHIT FOR LIKES!! ITS WRONG!

Dragonspawn · Answer

That, in my opinion, would be a more personal thing the couple should discuss. As for me, I prefer that my girlfriend not post anything too revealing as I grew up with more old fashion traditions. Though I respect that if she would like to post such things she may. I let her know how I feel but in the end it is her decision.

Reaperbot666 · Answer

if it was for his eyes only or he was also in the picture. then maybe it would be ok.

but if she is posting them just to get attention from others. then no

then again it depends if it is a selfie or a group picture with friends.

truly it depends on the guy and how insecure he or you are about the matter.

Singing_Hollow · Answer

If a woman is posting pictures of her body showing skin other than for her partner, then she is looking for validation from men that are NOT her partner and she will get it. Personally I think its cheap and disrespectful to a man that put his energy and time into loving me. If you feel you need attention from other males and that makes you feel good about yourself then either your man needs to complement you more or you are just an attention seeker.

hahahmm · Answer

That depends on the type of relationship. In a traditional relationship she needs her man’s approval because she is advertising herself to other men. Today it’s common for guys to be cucks or to have zero loyalty from the woman and not even realize that the reason she’s advertising is because she’s hoping to find someone better than him. This only applies to serious relationships tho. If you’re just ‘friends’ then of course she can parade naked even & it’s none of the guy’s business

Kiran_Yagami · Answer

Depends on the relationship, but I wouldn't have a problem with it. I'd expect to get to see her in those bikinis whenever I want, however. If we are in a relationship together, I want to feel special. I want different treatment than everyone else. BETTER treatment. So if you post bikini picks, I want to see that bikini in person. And take it off you.

artgorgeous · Answer

Yes, its ok for her, because she obviously does that. And for girls who don't - its not. From a man's perspective - it depends on what intentions she has - if she wants to attract more attention from other guys, while still having a boyfriend, in this case the relationships are done, its a dead end, its not ok. If she does that for a different reason (advertisement of a brand, travel agency, etc) then its ok.

AbleLearner · Answer

Go ahead, I'm not going to complain. I know of a certain science guy in Florida who took videos of his wife in a bikini and posted them to Youtube. All the guys were gawking over her, she's gorgeous. Her name is Denise.

Artgha · Answer

depending on how the relationship is lived, if the long distance relationship will be a little worrying and at the same time testing its loyalty to you in the face of the temptations of other men, if the relationship is not separated and can meet every day I think no problem

dreamstar72 · Answer

Are you saying that the girlfriend should not be able to go out in public. That her body be covered completely, because she is your property.
WRONG!!!
She should be able to dress a way that makes her happy. If she like bikinis let her wear them, there actually no difference between going to the beach in a bikini or posting your day out on line.
Now nude photos is something you both have to agree on.

Reaper1985 · Answer

might depend on how reveling her swimsuit was, how well it flattered her figure and the meaning behind posting the photo. because the average bikini covers roughly the same amount of skin as a standard bra and panties do. so it would almost be like she was posting a underwear photo online for others to see.

Ganta2Igarashi · Answer

I think of bikini pictures as irrational cause wearing a bikini is similar to wearing underwear and you won't post any pictures of you wearing underwear on social media or share them with anyone that is why I don't get bikini pictures like I don't understand why people do that

VikingWarLord · Answer

I FORCE her little Azz to. It ironically attracts other hot females when I flaunt the BDSM Subs and Slaves I have. And when I was in a relationship, I noticed the hotter my girlfriend looked, the more females would give me attention. I only date Bi Heauxs, who are willing to share me, so making her look good in pics to attract more female attention is exactly what I want.

Guardian45 · Answer

A girl can post whatever she likes as long she's willing to endure the consequences of her actions.

I don't speak for anyone else, but I think there are far too many people, especially young people, who post things on social media without a lick of a thought, that they will one day regret it. Once it's on the web; it's there FOREVER!

markscott · Answer

Posting bikini pics is close to advertising for attention from a guy. It's probably best if a girl doesn't post bikini pics if she has a boyfriend.

PeacefulRainDrop · Answer

I have never posted a photo of me online like that.. if friends have I have inboxed them asking them to remove it

RobertToast1828 · Answer

As long as she's not trying to seduce anybody else, I don't see how it can be construed as an issue. She has the right to post as she pleases so long as she isn't overstepping any relationship boundaries (and as long as what she posts isn't criminal).

Anonymous · Answer

If she’s on holiday in a pool or on a beach yes. But they should be natural, not too posey like they’re seeking attention elsewhere. I don’t understand guys who are against it in that sense. I’d avoid them personally.

SarahsSummer · Answer

I think it says something about her need for praise, acceptance and vanity. Quantity of likes does not make a better person. Quality in the relations we have, do. My further guess is she’s in the wrong relationship.

joanofarcher · Answer

No. And guys, you shouldn't tolerate it. Its means she is looking for attention and validation from other men. Almost definitely means your relationship is doomed.

dystopian_saga · Answer

it must be because guys with girlfriends look at those girls posting the pics in bikinis

Billlewis · Answer

If anything, she should be even more enthusiastic about posting pictures of herself in a swimsuit or other kinds of revealing clothing. I can't imagine any guy who wouldn't want his girlfriend to show off her sexy figure.

Anonymous · Answer

Is she posting it to get attention from guys? Or is she posting it because she's feeling good about herself? Or maybe she's just enjoying the beach or pool. I don't think it's faithful of her to try and get attention from guys. But feeling good about herself or enjoying a fun day swimming is appropriate.

TommyMountainFigure · Answer

Yes of course. She's allowed to go to the beach with her friends if she wants.. and by definition allowed to take photos..

Guys who are possessive and wish to stop their g/f having fun always seem to wind up as the same thing... an EX.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes, guys love that.

SassyAussieAddy · Answer

If you can walk around in one at the beach and be viewed by everyone there then it stands to reason you can take a selfie for your IG.

Anonymous · Answer

Yes, as long as she isn't actively flirting with other men online, I don't see an issue with it.

PeterStuSmal4u · Answer

Why wouldn't it be? Post whatever you feel comfortable posting. I will tell you this , if said boyfriend has a problem with any pictures you post he will eventually have a problem with every picture you post. Jealous , controlling insecure boyfriends turn into wife beating , emotionally abusive husbands.

Daniela1982 · Answer

If she isn't advertising for sex it isn't a crime, but she is being disrespectful to her boyfriend. I guess it would depend on what kind of poses she is doing.

Nxtawm · Answer

In my opinion yes she can, sometimes you just wanna show off. But of course some guys may not like it so just ask your boyfriend first if he's ok with it.

luvstoned4him · Answer

I have seen some do and their relationships still in tact. I think it all boils down to the level of trust that is in the relationship.

SexyAshh · Answer

Yeah,. I do it all the time., especially on my snapchat. I mean even on here because i keep a low profile and want to remain slightly anon. If a mans secure they shouldn't care

Anonymous · Answer

I don't think that's a big deal , especially if you go to the beach and post some photos  it is much worse if you are at home , post a pic of your butt or breast in the mirror and do it all the time.

George_Melons · Answer

It depends on the nature of the picture and how you feel about it. If it's a picture with her friends at the beach then it's very different to her showing her body exclusively in a bikini. Either way if you've asked her not to do it then it's another matter entirely.

melanieeeB · Answer

Of coruse!!! You can still post them with having kids or whatsoever.  The only important thing about pictures like this is, you need to feel comfortable and that's it.

mavric15 · Answer

As long as it's respectful, there shouldn't be a problem. For example, it would not be respectful if the girl posts a bikini pic while hugging on some other guy (unless family).

sawno · Answer

Yup, have fun. Feel free to show everyone how pretty you are. As long as i am the one who gets to play with them at the end of the day instead of them.

niceandmisunderstood · Answer

Not if it's a clear close up revealing photoshoot thing. But a few pictures from a distance or with friends, group shot kinda thing, where the intention of the picture is clearly not about showing the entire world your goods up close and personal, that's okay because that's different.

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

My man's usually the one who takes my bikini pics & he loves to show me off anyway.

AlexanderBrunnrgaard · Answer

Post bikini pictures generally of course. Post them in a seductive way to specific people/guys no.

Corerue · Answer

That's up to the individual couple. Something they need to know about each other ahead of time lol. Me, I'm 50 50. But honestly if it isn't messing up our relationship then who cares. 🤷‍♂️

Aethereal · Answer

I think it's in bad taste to do that unless her boyfriend is in the pictures. It's attention-seeking.

RookieRook · Answer

For sure its okay ! she's loving herself and how she looks ! Their partner should be right there w them boosting that ego , hearting those pics ! Trust your partner !

Jayden01 · Answer

It's her body and no one can control her however if her partner has expressed that they aren't comfortable then they should talk to there partner and maybe think about how they feel.

kortex · Answer

I mean , depends on the pose. If it's like a normal bikini picture on the beach , without too much sensuality m i guess it's fine

Bananaman177 · Answer

Good rule of thumb is: Don't post anything you wouldn't want school bullies to get their hands on and use to torment your son.

EmmaMary · Answer

Just why would you want to do that, attention seeking perhaps?
