Just that really!

on holiday at the mo and I cant even count the number of times I have seen topless women sunbathing at the beach… next to kids!…on non-nudist beach!

I really don’t want to see titties out in the middle of the day

on top of that I don’t fancy my teenage boys or even my DH having a look at them either

its obvious they’re coming from certain European countries ! Do they have no sense of what’s right or wrong ?

AIBU?

20 years ago I would sunbathe topless on holiday and to be honest if I had the body I did back then I would do it now!! I did it for a good tan, no other reason. Don’t like it? Don’t look.

If the authorities of that country were bothered, they would forbid it. Maybe do your research next time or pick a Muslim country for your holidays

Ok …. Cyprus !

Go to Dubai or some other country with stricter dress code if you are offended by female breasts on a beach.
And to your other posts - only reasons women don't free them in the office are:
A) for some of us they don't look as we would like on a heat
B) I cannot stress this enogh - peoole would go nuts about the fucking pair of tits like they were not almost all fed from them. Just like you are.

wintersgold · 30/07/2024 17:26

All this hysteria over some boobs. Good god. In the nicest way possible OP, please relax a little

LlynTegid · 30/07/2024 17:26

OP could have done some research and found out which places have very few women topless. Possibly those with beach videos on YouTube which are not cut or blurred.

Dita73 · 30/07/2024 17:28

Oh chill out. I guarantee your teenage sons and husband are having a wonderful holiday!

I don’t sunbathe at all… bad for your skin. Just got back from 3 weeks in Spain during which I spent a lot of time on the beach with my kids, and my pale, non sun exposed skin didn’t burn at all because I wore factor 50 sun cream the whole time. Not much can burn through regular applications of factor 50, even nipples!

Coool cool cool. I won’t be testing this theory.

Tregaronableist · 30/07/2024 17:32

My teenage boys watched open mouthed as two topless women played bat and ball on the beach. I thought it was hilarious.

Absolutely ZERO locals doing this !

If you are in Cyprus, look again. If you go to the beaches that are popular with locals, you will find plenty of topless sunbathing.

LoneHydrangea · 30/07/2024 17:33

Have you never been to a European beach before, OP?

I’m proud of my tits and I’d happily get them out on a tit friendly beach. My kids would not bat an eyelid.

We usually go to the USA or the Caribbean where topless sunbathing is a big fat no-no. But loads of women wear thong bikinis. I’d rather see a nice pair of tits than bum cheeks, tbh.

SeeSeeRider · 30/07/2024 17:35

Dear OP, why can't you write the word tits in full? Is it 1824, 1924, or 2024?

Luckily no one is asking you to!

Well my husband might but I’ll tell him to jog on

Hahahaha. Your husband and son are loving life right now

Yourdemonsyourproblem · 30/07/2024 17:40

You're wrong this is normal

Rycbar · 30/07/2024 17:40

I’m 34 and we holidayed in Greece a lot as a child. I remember that most of the women on the beach would be topless. My mum included so this isn’t a new thing at all. I’m in Greece right now actually and I’d say there are fewer people doing it than there were in the early 90s!

ACynicalDad · 30/07/2024 17:41

Take your family skiing next year instead.

TeenLifeMum · 30/07/2024 17:42

😂😂😂 have you never been to Europe? It’s only in the uk we’re totally hung up on the sight of a nipple. Your reaction does explain why breast feeding isn’t as popular here. Chill and enjoy the beach, maybe you’ll be desensitised to the deeply set hung ups you have about the human body.

I agree - we used to go to Greece in the 1990s and it was very much the norm. Much less now than previously.

Ok …. Cyprus !

You are in a country where it's acceptable to be topless on the beach. Get over yourself. Either accept that you'll see some lady nips or stay away. It's pretty straightforward.

LaughingCat · 30/07/2024 17:48

Oh my god, FINALLY! I grew up with topless sunbathing being the norm in the 80s and 90s - it disappeared for some reason. Is it back again?! I really hope so because I hate tan lines and for gods’ sake, they’re just bazoongas. We’ve all got them. 🙄

OuterSpaceCadet · 30/07/2024 17:50

My mate gets her tits out in front of my partner and kids. I really don't care!

The word "titties" on the other hand, winds me right up 🤮 It can get in the bin with "panties". I've never met a woman who'd say either.

CentrifugalBumblePuppy · 30/07/2024 17:10

Some prudes here are going to have a bloody conniption if they find out that you can feed babies with them too!

I’m in my 50s. Tits are tits. Providing you’re not browsing around Tesco with them out (mine are so low they’d add an extra kg or two when weighing my spuds), likewise in a restaurant (mine’d be in my soup before my spoon would be) then please, unclench.

Adult DD and Adult DS have been around them since they were kids, they’re perfectly well adjusted humans.

Bit of a side bar, but 👏 for your use of conniption.
My late bff's dmum used this and you've brought back memories for me that have made me laugh a bit.
Cheers. 😊

It seems poor OP has got her panties in a right twist over titties everywhere on the beach.... clutch your pearls and say your prayers. The horror!

BirthdayRainbow · 30/07/2024 17:53

I'm more offended by your use of t*ts and titties than the fact that some ladies are enjoying the freedom of being topless.

As for not wanting your husband to look 😂 or your son 🙄
