It seems that men have always had some strange sort of fascination for my bathing suits, and a strong desire to get into them. Well some men anyway.
By in them, I literally mean IN them. Oh yes I do!
I remember back when I was dating this guy named Michael. We had an on again, off again kind of relationship. Actually he traveled around a lot because he was trying to start a music career so we sometimes went months without seeing each other, but he’d always show up again eventually.
I can’t remember what exactly I liked about him, but I do remember what I didn’t like. He was the kind of guy that would suggest going out to dinner or to a movie and never ended up having his wallet with him when it came time to pay the bill. Yeah, that kind.
One of the last times that I saw him he’d just come back into town, from God knows where, and ended up at my door sometime late in the evening. He had no place to stay and wanted to rekindle some of the old sparks I guess. I must have let him stay over and then went to work the next day, or else I went out for some reason and left him alone in my apartment, long enough for him to have started exploring and going through my drawers and closets.
Whatever the reason I was out, I did eventually come home. I found him in my bedroom. I walked in to say hello and to ask him what he was doing and I was greeted with the most unexpected display!
He was standing there dressed in one of my one piece bathing suits!
I was shocked!
He was fascinated, happy, and more than a little bit excited. I, however, wasn’t the least bit excited by the view of him prancing around in my bathing suit that was stretched to the limit on his muscular and hairy body.
Total turn off!
Then to top it off … he pulled out one of my skirts – a pink one, and put that on too while I stood in utter amazement unable to utter a word.
Needless to say the skirt didn’t do anything for me either. Perhaps another colour might have done the trick? … but no, a hot pink mini and a tight black bathing suit and hairy chest was just so not my thing.
As he was reaching for another one of my clothing items – another skirt, a dress, a piece of lingerie? I can’t remember now, I was attempting to get him out of my bedroom and out the door. I was successful in removing him from the premises.
To this day I have no idea if he was taking advantage of a secret indulgence to wear womens clothing while I was away, or if he had been planning to surprise me and hopefully get me turned on by the jaw dropping display of him in my swimwear.
The next time he showed up at my door, perhaps a year later, Chris answered. I believe Michael stayed for less than 5 minutes and has never been back since.
After that last meeting I was fairly certain that I would never encounter another man that wanted to get into my bathing suit again … well, at least in the wrong, the oh so very wrong, kind of way, that is.
That was not to be. I was the one who was wrong.
Saturday night, as I sat by the Hot tub tending my wounded knee and glaring at my husband frolicking around in the water in an alcohol induced euphoria, I decided to pull out my bikini to show the hot tubbers that I really had been prepared to join them this time round. The last time I ended up at a hot tub party was just under a month ago, only I didn’t know they had a hot tub, and coax as they might, nothing would induce me into getting into the tub that night and showing off my in need of a shave legs! See, If I’d known, I would have been ready … but no way was I baring my legs that night.
As I pulled out my purple bikini bottom and waved it in the air, my brother in law, who the hot tubbers had also been relentlessly trying to coax into the tub, declared that he’d be happy to borrow my bikini and get in.
I made that bikini disappear so fast you would have thought I’d waved a magic wand or did an “I dream of Jeanie” nod of my head. They were gone, never, never to be seen again by my brother-in-law!
Now, women in mens clothing? Sometimes that’s cute. However men in womens clothing is NOT cute, at least not if they are trying to turn on their girlfriend. Then again, they’ve come out with Manties now, so maybe I’m wrong about the whole guy wearing feminine clothing being a turn off for women?
What do the women say? Ever walked in and found your boyfriend or spouse trying on your more feminine clothing items? Turn on or turn off?
Men, don’t feel excluded, I’d love to hear your take on this topic too … any secret desires to wear your ladies bikini or lingerie? Speak up.
Maybe the dude assumed he’d look cute on it, or that you’d find him cute in it. the way a girl looks cute on boxers sometimes. Or maybe he’s just rediscovering himself. Never knew anyone who would wear ladies clothes voluntarily, let alone a one piece bathingsuit.
I wore something of Barb’s once. Although it was for comedic effect more than anything else.
It was a lazy Sunday. We were loafing around, doing as much nothing as possible.
Barb: Come on! Let’s go out for ice cream. Please?
Me: I don’t want to leave the house at all. I just want to sit here in my pajamas. You can go get ice cream.
Barb: Ice cream would be so good.
(pause)
Barb: Please?!
(later)
Barb: I sure wish we could go get some ice cream.
Me: Alright, alright! I’ll go get dressed!
(I return to the living room wearing her aerobics leotard.)
Me: Ok! I’m ready, let’s go!
Barb: Um… I don’t want ice cream that bad.
Unlike that chap, I have no concept of the appeal of wearing women’s clothing. I just don’t get it! Perhaps like all men, I find some items fascinating and even pretty—but not to wear ourselves! Joefish’s story is AOK in my book, but your description of Michael just grossed me out.
Sorry Tricia, I have never done this or felt the urge to do so. I have nothing else to say, but different strokes for different folks. It’s all subjective. Oh, sorry you had to witness the bedroom display, you must have been horified.
Ohhh My Gawwwddd….I’m sorry but I couldn’t help myself… I did giggle at your expence…
That has never happened to me before…
And what a story to tell…
Looking forward to reading if anyone else shares in this experience…
oh my Trisha you found them!

A totally other world.
Well, gosh Tricia, I have never known you to be close-minded 🙂
If I want to wear a skimpy bikini because it makes me feel pretty, what is the harm?
I have an urge to put on one and take a picture and send it to you. Drink in the beauty, baby! Embrace it!
But God knows what you would do with the photo. Either it would be all over the internet or the police would be at my door within an hour…
I used to fantasize about wearing my girlfriends workout leotard and tights. One night when we were drunk and sitting on the sofa we were talking about secret desires and I told her that I had thought about it. She totally loved the idea, she went and got them out and told me to get changed. It was amazing, great fun and she loved it. She also made me go shopping at a local dance store for my own thong leotard and tights. She just stood in the shop as if we werent together whilst I spoke to the lady behind the counter and tried various ones on. Not only was the sales lady really cool, she was very helpful and didnt think anything of it. My girlfriend found it very exciting watching me try on different leotards too. Since then she has actively promoted my fantasy and we have great fun. I always though I was weird having these thoughts. Do a search on the internet and I find Im not the only one.
I’ve no desire to wear women’s clothing.
But I do swim in one-piece swimwear. Typical guys swimsuits leave you topless, which is not a feeling I enjoy. Board shorts and a t-shirt feel like swimming in jeans and a parachute. Better fitting guys lycra-ish swim tops do exist; worn with briefs the result is close to a tankini. It’s not a big leap, assuming you can cope with not showing your navel, from there to a one-piece. To me, the maillot style the ideal fit to the human form, male or female. Most importantly, you swim like a fish in one.
I wouldn’t wear someone else’s swimsuit though – especially not without asking them!
……….. (long pause of shock)
My girlfriend was just googling aerobic/workout wear (not leotards) and came across this page in the search. she asked me to come over and read it, and then if i ever shared the urge…umm NO! Agreed on her end that it’s a total turn off.
as far as the posts above, i can’t wrap my brain around any guy willing or wanting to “suprise” his girlfriend by wearing her tights and leotard. And about his shopping experience, no way do I believe he went with his girlfriend. I bet he went it alone.
YUCK!
The picture in my head of this hairy sweaty guy bulging out of a girl’s bikini is… disgusting! Maybe it’s more than just bikinis, some guys love wearing women’s underthings.
I completely relate!! Right now I am wearing a speedo highneck zipper back swimsuit. The fabric feels great all over my body, is really comfortable to swim, play, watch tv, even to sleep in. I have worn leotards, swimsuits, catsuits, bodysuits since i was young when my cousins dared me to wear their leotard – and i LOVED it. I wish that the onepiece swimsuit was acceptable for all guys to wear whenever, though perhaps with boyleg style. I love the extra coverage in the sun, and it is fantastic under my wetsuit.
