Rachel M: Is it ok to wear panties to the beach instead of swimsuit bottoms?
My swimsuit bottoms are so unflattering and uncomfortable. I don’t have time to go on a hunt for a better suit because I’m going to the beach today. Could I just wear black panties? Much more comfortable and way more flattering! Would people notice they’re panties? I mean, would it be awkwardly obvious?

People would probably notice, and yes, it would be very awkward.
Don’t take this the wrong way, but you’d just look flat out DUMB ! Of course people would be able to tell. There is an obvious difference.Answer by Ali Umar
Who cares? Wear what you wantAnswer by Kami
They would probably notice, but I highly doubt any of the guys would complain 😛 I’d say it’s okay, I mean it’s practically the same thing anyway.Answer by Chrissy
Definitely OKAnswer by Lauren Ashlynee
The panties would be a thinner material and more likely to slip and cling but sure if you had boy short panties or even just mesh shorts I think that would be a better alternativeAnswer by Cat

DONT IT WOULD B WEIRD AND AWKAnswer by Jenny O’brien
it would depend on the fabric and whether or not they get wet. My friend (a guy) forgot his swimsuit so he wore a pair of red nylon panties (from his sister) and they looked fine until they got wet. You could see every hair and shape of his privates. We didn’t mind but he was embarrassed.Answer by ykylm
Oh please whatever you do, do not wear panties instead of swimsuit bottoms!!! What kind of image are you going for??
A) They aren’t going to stay up if you go in the water, they will get saggy, etc.
B) Of course it is going to be obvious that you are wearing your underwear
It would only be okay MAYBE if you had black spandex shorts like what you wear under skirts, dresses, gym shorts. But you can’t just throw on some undies and call it good.
Answer by Brian O’ connerhonestly coming from a guys point of view it is SEEEXYYYY :D, but if u dont care go ahead and do it 😉Answer by rockyjr5
Yes it’s okay to wear panties to the beach instead of swimsuit bottoms. Yes people will notice that they’re panties, and someone will say something behind your back, or whisper it to someone else that they know, but so what. If you want to wear your panties to the beach than go for it. Even if you want to wear both your bra and panties to the beach instead of an swimsuit,than that would also be okay to do.Answer by Lotta C
If that’s all you have to wear!Answer by Stacey Green
I suppose it depends on the fabric, style and visibility of the crotch seams.
But for 98% of panties, it will be very, very obvious and alarming to a number of people you are running around at the beach in your panties.
Please don’t do it.
I hope that helps – good luck!
Answer by Katie DurbinOfcourse it’s fine! My (girl) friends and I rarely ever wear swimsuits because underwear is so much more comfortable and flattering! You may want to double up on the panties though because some pairs can get semi transparent or SUPER form-fittingly clingy, but otherwise you should be perfectly fine wearing panties instead! Hope I helped!
Best of luck,
-Katie

I am a man who wears panties instead of men’s bikini briefs. It began as a fetish here and there but now I wear them every day. Most of them are nylon/elastain and a few are cotton like young girls wear. I have only ever worn bikini speedos to the beach and pools. I have some G-string speedos but I only wear them to nude beaches on the odd occasions when I don’t want to go naked. Occasionally I wear panties to nude beaches as many of the guys there are gay and like to see men in panties asl do. But when it comes to wearing panties at a clothed beaches personally I would not. My panties are quite skimpy with lacy panels and mesh on some. Most are see-through when they are dry. There are places for men to wear panties as l often do but clothed beaches are not suitable for men in panties and G-strings. A nice skimpy swim brief will make you look good. If you want a see-through effect so your gland will be highlighted (especially when wet) carefully cut out the lining.
