Topless niece

[*Bambi*]

i didn't mean any harm by it just a little joke

i have family in the US, so i really dont mean any harm, just playing devils advocate

I live in the US, but travel quite a bit. Many years ago, in the late '70's I spent a school year in France (Montpellier, close to the Med.). Topless women were very common on the beach, and no one thought anything of it, except for the horny American students. I knew it had become culturally ingrained and totally accepted as a norm because I often saw older women topless with their daughters and/or granddaughters together with their families No one every thought anything of it...

Today, when I travel (some 30 years later), it is the same. But it is not only France, this is accepted also in Spain, Italy, Greece and many other countries. For your next vacation, stay close to home and visit the French Caribbean (Martinique or Guadeloupe), and you will see what I'm talking about.

I understand where you are coming from because, having been raised in the USA, I know that our culture is much less tolerant. Just look at our history of the pilgrams and puritans. Instead of having topless beaches, our country tends more towards violence. Just compare the crime rate in the USA to Spain. Maybe that's why you are concerned about sexual predators and your niece.

Anyway, I should'nt rant about politics. Bottom line, if it didn't bother your in-laws, you shouldn't let it bother you. Just remember "when in Rome,..."

Oh, by the way, I'm willing to bet that this was your first time on a Southern European beach?

FINALLY!!! We have one or two posts that makes good sense. Instead of those other "Look, breasts are natural. What's the problem?" posts. Thanks Hubbette for your enlightening post, makes me feel a whole lot better. I was starting to feel like a loony-bin after reading the other replies.

I can understand why you were upset, but as you've probably found out now, it's quite common to see topless females of all ages (including teenagers) on beaches in Europe, in fact it's not rare e.g. in France and Italy, to see them swimming and sunbathing completely nude. Men as well, of course. It's just accepted. Hope this is helpful.
Luv,
Puddy.

How tragic.

I'm finding it hard to believe any of this, for one simple reason.

I live in southern Spain, in fact the most southerly part.

I know what the weather was like down here this March, and there is no way in a million years that there was a crowded beach, much less people on it topless. If Concern's family did go on the beach, they would have been practically alone, and very uncomfortable in the winds and rain we had down here this year.

In March, the beaches are still a mess because the local authorities don't go and do their annual clear-up until late April, early May. Even now there are very few people on the beach, and the weather is getting a lot warmer as spring sets in.

Sorry, I think this is just a fantasy.

In Benidorm over the Easter week last month (i.e. March 2008), the sun was shining, although there was a bit of wind at itmes, the beaches were spotless with crowds of people, some women topless(!), and some people were even swimming.

Last week I caught him staring at our neighbor's 17-year old daughter. I'm not sure if I should confront him on this.

I really do not understand the problem except of course the original poster was american a country with the most screwed up morals in the world, most places you can carry a gun and shoot someone but take your clothes off and you are going to corrupt the entire world, Yet they have the worlds foremost pornographic film making industry? However strippers in many states have to keep their bottoms on or break the law!!!
To answer the original post however
1. They are a woman's breast and the option to bare or not is hers,
2. If the viewer does not like leave
3. Bare breasts on a beach or similar area are not sexual or at least no more so than a man's bare chest
4. The more normal nudity becomes the less "exciting" it will be#
5. Is she really so insecure about her husband that she thinks the sight of another female will make him desire her less?
6. Of course he found it arousing he probably never gets to see your breasts (point 4 explains this reaction) and the part about your neighbour.

Sheeesh

ok I'm not a troll. this is a true story. last summer my wife and I were vacationing in southern italy. It was July and it was hot.

We were staying at really really nice hotel on the med and just returned from hiking in the hills. We are both in great physical shape and my young wife is quite attractive .. specially so in her bikini PM me if you want the name of the hotel. So we decided to swim and sun by the pool.

We had it all to ourselfs (too hot to be outside really) when a couple from, i am guessing, slovakia decided to sun bathe next to us. Why they decided to be next to us I have no idea because there was no one else there. The woman, age around 30, was amazingly goregous with beautiful legs and ass.

Anyway, the woman removed her bikini top and reclined on her back next to me. AFter a minute or two, she couldnt help but notice that I was trying hard not to let anybody see me try to look at her and I noticed her looking at the obvious bulge in my shorts. Not noticing what was going on, my wife got up to use the restroom.

Seeing my wife leave the pool area, this gal, without directly looking at me, smiled, and pulled the string on her bikini bottom ..........and zipped it off. She was freshly shaved and amazingly beautiful. Her pussy was as gorgeous as the rest of her. She spread her legs slightly apart, then watched me examine her for several seconds. Her boyfriend was just taking the whole thing in.

Instantly I was hard as a rock and my C*** began to extend out of my speedos. Regretting today that I didnt at that point begin a conversation with her, instead I stood up and jumped in the pool. Climbing out the far end, I intercepted my wife and told her that things were just too hot for me at the pool. Not sure what would have happened if we had stayed there but frankly I wish that I had.
