Are you ok with your husband/wife/partner liking bikini pictures?

Or underwear/revealing pictures.
I was just on Instagram and ended up on one of the Love Island contestant's pages.
There were a few revealing pics of her in a bikini or in underwear, and I was able to see that it was 'liked' by a male acquaintance of mine, who's in a long term relationship and has a 2 year old child.
I know it doesn't mean he's cheating, but I'm not sure how I feel about it really. Sure, we all think others are attractive, but is it necessary to like revealing/almost naked photos? Maybe his partner is ok with it, who knows. I just find it a bit disrespectful.

I'm single but this would never in a month of Sundays be ok with me Blush

If various people are happy to take part in shows, photoshoots etc and then use social media to showcase their portfolios etc

When, why and how does it become creepy for lack of better words when people like the portfolios etc?

Of course it’s not okay. But it’s also none of your business.

There's no 'of course' about it. This thread demonstrates perfectly the huge split on opinion.
What I do agree with is though is its n9ne of her business, or ours really.

Do you honestly never see a picture of a man, just in passing while online or reading the newspaper or watching a film, and privately find them vaguely attractive?

Key word is privately.

Come on, any middle aged bloke who is on insta following a bunch of "models" with inflated lips and tits, sticking their arses out, is a sadcase, and who'd want to be married to that? Embarrassing.

To me this is just obvious. Shocked at how some think this isn't a massive turn off.

It would bother me for exactly th is reason- mutual friends seeing who my dp is having a perve over and judging us as a couple - just like it in your own head like I would a thirst trap from anthony Joshua etc rather than embarrassing my partner

I’ve called my dh out on this. I don’t really care if it’s someone mega famous with a million followers etc but he was liking weird accounts of relatively unknown models with huge boobs and following them and I didn’t like that. So I told him so and he unfollowed them. I said I don’t really care if he looks as long as I don’t know about it but I’m not a fan of him liking stuff, it’s weird and it also appears in my own feed as I don’t follow / like many things (whereas he does) so I don’t want my nice feed full of crochet and funny cute animals to be intercepted with photos of women with size LLLL breasts. No thanks.

I know I'm bumping an old thread here, but of course they all had to have large breasts! Yawn...😐
