I use one all the time at the beach, the pool, or anywhere else that involves swimming.
My wife has taken to wearing bathing suits that would have been considered modest in the Victorian era. Three kids has ruined her body according to her, (it hasn't).
Some of the more uber conservative Catholics think bikinis are immodest. I'm Brazilian, so I'd be a traitor to my culture if I wore anything but a bikini lol.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
