I hope one day that all women will be proud enough to walk around naked. If they stand up for themselves, men will stand up for them.

Just like Today’s culture.

These suits evolved into what are now known as “miracle” suits. To me, it’s a “miracle” whenever I find one that fits at a good price. I hate buying swimsuits.

I don’t think anyone can buy a swimsuit to make him/herself feel better because confidence and security is all in your head.Have a wonderful Sunday, friends! Today was the first day in a while that I got to sleep in and I feel good!

I bought a swimsuit because I liked the design, I wonder what saleslady would say about it?
Have a wonderful Sunday and Happy Memorial Day “Cathy” clan!
@lightenup – sleep in? I’m not familiar with the phrase. :-)

HI, MOM. Happy Sunday, Clan.

Unless you’re wearing a wetsuit that covers you from your neck down to your ankles, no bathing suit in the world is going to do everything that the makers/designers of bathing suits SAY they’re going to do when it comes to covering up, minimizing, flattering, etc., “this, that and the other” parts on your body. There’s simply not enough material there to do any of that stuff with!!! I still think that if Cathy is just going to cover up whatever she puts on so that no one else can see it anyhow, she should just save the money by wearing last year’s bathing suit and be done with this nonsense already. If she covers herself up EVERY year, then who besides her is going to know the difference anyhow? She’s already spent an entire week shopping for one and has STILL come up empty on her search for the perfect suit. Time to get a clue and just give up, Cathy!!!
Hi, rgcviper!
Hello and Happy Sunday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope everyone’s been having a really nice Memorial Day weekend so far. Don’t forget to take the time tomorrow to remember and thank all the brave military men (and women) throughout our country’s history who gave their all so that we can enjoy all the freedoms that we have today (well, at least those that we have left anyhow). God bless each and every one of those brave, selfless people . . . I hate to think where our nation would be right now without them!!!!!
