What Swimsuit to Wear on Vacation in the Caribbean?

You know you want it...

Mocka Jumbies and Rum...

There isn’t a red-blooded sailor around who does not appreciate a pretty girl in a brief bikini – and girls know it.

Charlie has seen his fair share of girls prancing around in the latest Brazilian attire, especially in front of a desirable stud – but then, if the wrong guy takes too much interest there’s a frantic effort at modesty; a tugging of non-existent material, to cover a scrunch or over exposed bun.  

A relatively new trend is the duct-tape bikini.

There are experts at this, and Charlie is considering taking a course. It entails taking a girl with a beautiful figure and using colored duct-tape to manufacture a bikini or artful swimming costume onto a nude, curvaceous body. It’s rather like body painting but not as likely to wash off. 

Sailing With Charlie with Bathing Suits

In France nude bathing has long been ‘de rigueur’ but lately sexy swimwear has taken over.

During the last decade or two there has been an influx of Muslims from ex-colonies and when Muslim females go to the beach a ‘burkini’ is the requirement. This is a full body length cover up and scarf so as not to expose any enticing skin whatsoever. Personally, Charlie has never been sexually aroused by a bare kneecap!

Other cultures have similar swimwear but not for modesty reasons but to avoid unwanted sun tan. In many Oriental countries a white skin is valued very highly and God forbid any browning at all. Quite amazing really when you think of the lengths people go to in many western countries to achieve a golden tan.

What Swimsuit to Wear on Vacation? In Europe the favored swimsuit for men is the ‘speedo’; it highlights a man’s packages but is often regarded as a laughing stock for Americans.

It’s actually good for swimming being sleeker and offering less resistance when fast swimming is the object. You’ll never see shorts being worn in a swimming tournament. However, at the beach, a speedo is looked upon with derision by Americans who typically wear knee length shorts, often exceedingly baggy to help camouflage huge bellies and rolls of fat. Classy board shorts look great on the right body but speedos are definitely ‘out.’ 

Sometimes it’s fun to watch beach goers who are definitely wearing the wrong kind of swimwear. Old ladies, sometimes overweight, who still think they’ve ‘got it’ bulging out of a bikini they bought twenty years ago before the cellulite and wobbly bits came along. Same with men – the studs they were and now are not. 

It’s funny but at nude beaches (St Martin has at least one) the ones parading around with no clothes are precisely those who should be covered up. Be warned – nude beaches, rather than providing excitement and enticement may put you off sex for life.

  1. What a neanderthal! Can we critique a pic of this author in his swim gear? Give him a taste of his own vacuousness.

  2. Well the author is definitely not European otherwise he would know that Europeans are not so shy about sex and the American swim sacks are not camouflage huge bellies and rolls of fat (where is he wearing his shorts?) but to avoid that anyone could have the idea that there might be something underneath.

  3. This piece definitely has no sense, in fact it’s nothing more than an apology for male chauvinism. Wearing shorts as swimwear doesn’t guarantee masculinity, gays wear shorts too and they keep being gays. We are free to wear the swimwear we like and that must be respected, whether we like it or not. I wear and I’ll keep wearing speedo as swimwear and no way am I change that, I don’t care what people says. I’m straight male and proudly Colombian.

    P.S.: Well, I know it’s toooo late, but I don’t care, I’ll keep defending the speedo as swimwear all the time.
