Glad you started this thread. I, like most women, have struggled with insecurities about my body. Over the years I've been anywhere between a size 12 and a size 0, and always critical of myself no matter how tiny I was. I have never been to TTR before. I have also never gone topless before, but plan to do it. I admit I'm nervous, as I have smaller breasts, but my Husband seems to love them! I've also never worn a thong (in public), but I bought a few for the pool/beach. I think the thing to remember is that we have the choice to do what feels right for us. If that means going topless, great! It if means wearing your top, that's great too! Besides, leaving something to the imagination is super sexy! Also, it's important to remember that while you're worried that everyone is noticing what you think are your flaws, everyone else is sitting there worried about their own "flaws". What I'm saying is that people are so pre-occupied with their own insecurities that they won't notice whatever it is about your body that makes you insecure. By the sounds of it, TTR is a super fun and accepting crowd. Have a great time, and do what feels right for you! Sabrina
Coming from a guys perspective as everyone has already mentioned you have to do what YOU think is right. Many will be topless.....many wont. I've been having the same discussions with my wife as she too has insecurities and she used to model !! She may not have the body she did at 25 but who does? She still looks great whatever she does or doesnt wear and I would never push her to do thngs she doesnt want to do. But I will place 5-1 odds that once the tequila starts flowing the top may not be the only thing disappearing. This is an opportunity for everyone to do some things outside the box and as others have said without people being judgmental . Where else can you find this kind of atmosphere?? I had a poster in my room in college and it said " If it feels good...do it!!" Cant think of a situation where that saying is more appropriate.
Don't worry about it, most of us have sunglasses so we won't be blinded lol! And ladies, whatever you decide to do is A-OK. You're on vacation wear whatever you need to wear to feel comfortable and go with it!
We arrive the first, see you for sure on the cruise the 4th, if not before. You will have fun, do not feel streseed, do what you want, whenever you want, it is your vacation. We will find you as the beer table sounds like a great way to meet people.
I read this and have been dyeing to respond had a million things to say but you know what ... I'm gonna wait for your trip report and see how things go for you. You will find this place amazing ..have fun
I felt a lot like you, Noelle. For the first couple of days, my top was on and double-knotted, then when the Boobs Cruise came around. I figured "what the hell, I can put it back on..." and then I saw it tied to the lines and run up the mast! And...nothing bad happened! No one pointed and went "Ewwwww! Ick!" In fact, no one really seemed to notice. Here's what I got out of the experience: 1. Bare boobs are interesting, but they really can't compete with the blue Caribbean or the funny drunk people whooping it up. With so many other things to look at, no one focuses on anyone's body for too long. 2. Everyone has different likes and dislikes. What one person thinks of as "heavy" another will describe as "curvy" or "voluptuous." What one guy thinks of as "petite" another sees as "scrawny." To at least one person, I guarantee you're going to be hot--top or no top! 3. Attitude is everything. Who would you rather hang with, the chubby mom with some stretch marks who smiles warmly, invites you to join her group for shots and makes you laugh, or the hot swimsuit model who acts too good for anyone who tries to talk to her? If you're having a good time, no one will remember if you had a top on or not.
Just go down with no preconceptions and do what you want. Trust me, the guys down there love boobies no matter size or shape. Some even like the man boobies. Lol
I'm not taking my trunks off AGAIN !!Just saying ...You will have a great time I'm certain of that !!!
