Comment on How do bikinis not feel just as exposing as underwear?

  Social conditioning, once again. We’re French, and it’s totally possible for us.
  Yesterday, among strangers, at the local lake, my 42 year old friend was topless, playing with her 7 year old son and her 5 year old (naked) step-daughter. A 36 yo pregnant friend was wearing a string bikini around her husband, 6 yo daughter, and in-laws. It was a non-issue.
  Not saying all rules can always be broken, but they’re heavily context- and culture-dependant.

  To be fair, if your son cares it’s only because you/society taught him to care.

  Why does your son not understand human anatomy? We all grew up seeing our moms boobs at some point.

    My mom raised us to be comfortable with our bodies, so we wouldn’t even have the door closed when we were bathing.
