To think bare bums shouldn’t be out on the beach

On holiday and a woman pulled her bikini bottoms down to sun tan her bum presumably but AIBU to think this isn’t appropriate?

I would think it's a bit strange as I personally wouldn't want strangers to see my bum, but it wouldn't really bother me that much. Just don't look if it bothers you.

I wouldn’t mind.

Shopkinsdoll · 06/09/2018 18:55

I’m no prude but I think that’s not on.

We were once on a beach in Spain and a woman in a thong opened her legs wide to tan the inside of her thighs. It was rather vulgar. I'm not overly prudish but I think certain 'positions' when more-or-less naked, should be avoided in public. Pulling your pants down to reveal your arse is a bit weird imo. Wear a thong or go to a nudist beach

Most people have their arses out on beaches now since thong bikinis became acceptable.
I found it practically impossible to find a bikini this year that covered my bum.

I hope she's wearing sunscreen. I imagine burnt arse cheeks would be quite painfull!

TheWinterofOurDiscountTentsMk2 · 06/09/2018 19:17

I don't see any real difference between that and a thong bikini. People are practically naked at the beach.

Sparklesocks · 06/09/2018 19:19

I don’t mind bums out, they’re weirdly funny!
Would have an issue if she was letting the other side tan...

youarenotkiddingme · 06/09/2018 19:19

Right down as in under her arse cheeks or just low to limit lines?

tbh it wouldn't bother me in the slightest but seems to odd to me as it will leave an under arse white strip and thing bottom would have been better!

Probably from someone who would never sunbathe topless.

AndhowcouldIeverrefuse · 06/09/2018 19:50

Meh wouldn't bother me. We are just human.

Thesearmsofmine · 06/09/2018 19:50

That wouldn’t bother me tbh

OutPinked · 06/09/2018 19:51

It’s just a bum... you do know it’s not genitalia, right?

ThePinkOcelot · 06/09/2018 19:51

What’s the point in that?! It wears off and who is going to see her arse?! Ridiculous!

PeaceRaven · 06/09/2018 19:56

Who is going to see her arse? 🤔. Unless you always have sex with the lights off in a blacked out room probably her partner(s).

LyndorCake · 06/09/2018 20:20

I love bums :)

^ HmmShock

I've been on many a beach and have seen relatively few arses...
