Ladies...A question about how you sunbathe in public and your bathing suit?

Contributor: Martiniman Martiniman
I'll be in Mexico on vacation in three weeks and I'll be surrounded by women sunbathing in all manner of adjusted bathing suits so as to have as few tan lines as possible. I'm a man, and yes it's a turn on to see women in public with undone swimsuits soaking in the sun. Therefore, I have a question for you.

When you sunbathe in public, do you adjust, untie or remove parts or all of your bathing suit to avoid tan lines? If yes, how do you do it and to what level will you go to avoid those nasty tan lines?

Multiple choice applies for the answers so please select all that apply.

When I'm tanning with my suit untied and I'm vulnerable to exposure...it concerns me, but I hate tan lines.
When I'm tanning I will not untie my suit for fear I'll expose myself.
When I'm tanning with my suit untied...it's only to avoid tan lines.

I avoid drinking, smoking, and the sun as much as possible. It's why people ask me "Why are you not in (high) school?" when I am working... -____-

I don't sunbathe, but when I did I would wear a bathing suit (tankini) and keep it on the way it was...if I was at home I would slip the should straps off. When tanning for my wedding I went to a tanning bed so I didn't have to worry about tan lines

I might toast the undersides my arms for about 15 minutes or so, but otherwise, I slap on that 85 spf any time I plan on being out for more than half an hour. I'm Irish and Scottish so I burn very, very, very easily.

I avoid sunbathing but I'd remove the back only.

Also an albino here. Like XVeronicaRose, I am mistaken for being much much younger than I am (by fifteen years, recently) by others because I'm not leather-tanned like most everyone else around here. Besides, redheads don't tan, we burn.

I'm another burner, I don't sunbathe ever. I'm actually looking for a nifty parasol to tote around but have yet to get lucky there.

I was in my early 20's when I decided to give sunbathing up. it always fried my skin to a very painful level. sunbathing would have ruined my skin & I'd probably look 15 - 20 years older than I do now.

I haven't gone sunbathing in a long time but when I do I try to adjust my bathing suit to get as few tan lines as possible.

I do go tanning in a salon so I can be totally naked. I know it's not the best for me though.

Currently i have a strapless one piece that i love because it helps to get a good tan on my top, however when i wear a bikini (the one i own is high waist) i will roll down the bottom to expose my belly as well as untie my top either tying them so the top becomes "strapless" or tucking them into the cups. there have been a few times where i took my top off completely and used some larger shells for pasties.

Very interesting responses. I'm not a sun worshiper by any means, but we do enjoy laying on the beach or by the pool when on vacation and at home out by our pool. I'm surprised at how many don't seem to do that. FYI...I wasn't talking about spending all day in the sun, just what time you do spend in the sun if you go to the beach.

I don't sunbathe. When I'm at the beach, I'm looking for sea glass and playing with my kids. I don't tan well, I usually burn.

Avoid the sun like it's the plague. It's really bad for you to sun bathe too much. Plus it ages you. What women wants that?

I will not sunbathe to the point of a tan. That is just pure damage to the skin which lasts a lifetime (and can lead to a much shorter lifetime, at that). Having said that, if I am in a vacation resort or on a cruise, I will undo the straps on my bikini and get a few minutes of sun, with a good sunscreen applied and thus avoiding tan lines. Over the course of the summer, I do end up getting some "color" from the sun, but nothing like the tanning I did as a teen, and still regret, knowing what I know now. Oh, if you are in Mexico, or certain parts of Europe, just do what you see others doing, and thus don't "stand out". It is far less intimidating. Being dressed on a nude beach is as embarrassing as being nude on a clothing mandatory beach. Just look around. If everyone is pure topless, then lose the top. If they just undo straps, best to do likewise. It's how we have always done it when visiting different places, and it is the most comfortable way to just "blend in".

I don't sunbathe & haven't since my horrible last burn when I was 19. and, to the credit of this abstinence, my skin is much nicer today than others my age, even many younger than myself.
