Amazing what a negative response this site draws, and it's nothing but a site for people who want to enjoy swimming and still live up to their personal convictions. Maybe you don't like the suits, but nobody is forcing you to order. What ever happened to tolerance for people with differing views? Oh yeah, I guess it only applies if the different person is doing something immoral.

I bet they have great export sales with the optional bee-keeper bonnet?

Yes, I've "taken it a little too far"...that's why it's funny!

WOW I love these suits. No reason for a woman or girl to expose herself to play in the water. Sure if I could have told privacy I wouldn't necessarily want to be so well covered, but when I'm at a public lake or beach I don't want worry about exposing myself.

Sorry to ruin the fun those who enjoy watching the beautiful bodies at the beach, but I don't think a girl or woman should be out in public in her underwear and that's what most swimsuits look like.

I sicken me that so many young women today don't think their body is a special thing to only be shared with that special someone. Most take the attitude of either looking for the attention or figuring it doesn't mater.

Respectfully Kate, your comment has a logical flaw. Under your reasoning if everyone walked around naked, a little itty bitty bikini would attract people's attention. The website is correct in that it draws attention away from the "body"...more specifically, if I may a little explicit, it prevents a drooling guy from staring at a girls boobs and butt. You mistake attention the suit might bring for simply being out of the ordinary with inappropriate attention directed at a girl or woman's body parts. As to the Bible, I don't know what you mean by "complete prudery" but, it certainly advocates a level of modesty far greater than that which one would find these days at any public beach. There is nothing wrong with a woman or girl who would choose to wear these suits.

I purchsed one of these bathing suits and wear it without shame. I have gotten both negative and positive comments about it. People have reacted by mocking me, "I always wanted to swim in my clothes." But on one occasion a woman approached me and said, "You are giving glory to God by wearing that!" People can see that I am a Christian by merely what I wear, for the inside is clean and it is reflected on the outside.

I have a question. Since the purpose of the modest swimwear is to not draw attention to the body, why then is a "Slimming Swimmer" stlye needed? Why should it matter? Isn't "Gluttony" a sin too? If you are going to follow the Bible to the letter of the law, you cannot pick and choose which pieces fit your needs. If this is truly a swimsuit you enjoy and feel comfortable with, you should by all means wear it. However, to judge another as immoral because of their choice of swimsuits is also a sin. Especially if you know nothing of their Christian values.

They will not drown. The suits are made of materials and cut in such a manner that they do not impede one's ability to swim. If anything they will be more buoyant in the suits and less likely to drown.

I would love to be able to buy something like this for myself and my dd. I am praying to God to provide the finances. I am sure of this is what He wants us to wear, He will provide the means! :-)

I appreciate this company's attempt at modesty and applaud those who prefer to keep private things private. I can't say I would wear one of these suits, but I can recommend another company who makes modest swimwear that is also flattering. Check out Ohana Swimwear at www.ohanaswimwear.com. I bought one of their suits and have loved it. They believe in strong families with Christian values, and I have loved doing business with them.

Why should we stop at covering the body. Couldn't a man lust after a beautiful face just as easily? I think you need to follow the Muslims' example and put all your beautiful wives and daughters in burkas.

I am 19 years old. I have always been fairly well-covered when I have gone swimming. I agree with Don and Whitney that these swimsiuts have "taken it too far". Shapeliness is different from nudity. I see nothing wrong with clothes that reveal an attractive figure, as long as they are not provacatively tight (ie: jeans that attract the eyes to bulging buttocks.). However, I will not allow anything from cleavage to buttocks show in public. Most of the time, I wear board shorts for added comfort in case of "wedgie"-itis. I think this is a good guideline to follow when searching for a swimsuit. I have never had any negative feedback from this, whether teasing or scolding.

I think many of you are missing the point. We women cause men to sin (lust) when we wear revealing clothing. That includes shorts, jeans and even tight dresses. Ask your husband or brother what they TRULY notice. Jeans and shorts ephasize the crotch and butt areas. while tight dresses emphasize breasts etc. There is NOTHING wrong with keeping your body for your HUSBAND and yes that even includes covering your hair. Don't take my word for it, study Gods word. too many Christians have become worldly. Even men should be covered, not bare chested. christians need to walk the walk not just talk the talk. People should be able to look at us and see something different, inside and out! there is nothing wrong with courtship rather than casual dating either. those of us who have raised our daughters (and sons) to be pure until marriage dn't risk our children coming home to tell us they have aids, or are pregnant. My daughters have not died of embarrassment from being taught modesty. If your daughter was raised to dress immodestly by your example there is still time to change that. If you give a child $ to buy skimpy clothes you are condoning that type of "style". children are supposed to honor their parents, even if it means being told to cover up their bodies! I thought the Bible, not the Olymics set the standard for people?! why the Olympics? why not follow madonna? Our children are also not being raised to walk away from relationships when there is a problem. Caasual dating actually sets the scene for DIVORCE. Take a look at the values our society used to have, back when "bathing costumes" covered you from shoulder to thigh. Skin cancer, divorce and rape were almost unheard of. For those of you who attack these suits so vehmently think and pray about it. The Lord may be speaking to your conscience about your lack of modesty. You may not choose to wear them and that is unfortunate for you. However when you feel the need to attack those who choose to you are the one with the problem

I truly appreciate these swim suits. I am a 28 year old who can make my own decisions as to what i wear to swim in. I have always felt uncomfortable in the most "modest" swimwear I could find in retail stores. I believe that the Bible teaches modesty. I view it from the stand point of God's holiness. . . I am commanded, by the Bible, to be holy like God and set apart unto Him. His example of holiness is reflected in my life by refusing to look or act like the world. It is my Biblical responsibility to keep my self modest so as to not be the cause of lustful thoughts. If despite my best efforts at modesty someone lusts after me that is not my responsibility. But it is foolish of me to neglect my own responsibility.

I am amazed reading all the comments about your swimsuits!! People will justify anything at the cost of doing what they want, rather than what is commanded of them by God. Just because Olympic swimmers wear what they do, does not make it okay! We have been so influenced by today's standards that God"s standard's seem old fashion and out of date. Would you want to come face to face with Christ dressed in a skimpy swim suit? Oh, I hope not. Thanks for what you are doing

While I can appreciate modesty, I don't appreciate the underlying sexism of these suits. Why is it that these modest suits are only made for women? Why are women expected to attire themselves more conservatively than men? Or conversely, why aren't men afforded the opportunity to dress this modestly? (I'd totally love one of those 1920's-style male singlet suits).

Maybe it's because there's nothing 'old-fashioned' or 'moral' about these suits. Maybe they in fact represent a 'conservatism' that masks an underlying cultural violence to women - such as religious countries that mandate burquas for women. The type of societies that get glowing praise such as "Divorces were unheard of!" by conveniently ignoring the fact that they were "unheard of" because women were so marginalized in such a society that they couldn't seek a divorce when abused, or were too scared to because of the difficulty a single woman would have in such a wretched society.

The question here isn't whether or not modesty is good - it is much more obviously why does the modesty standard only seem to cut one way? This company is patently sexist.

(But really, I'm just venting my frustration that nobody provides swimwear for the modest MALE...)

I just want to let you know that I have NEVER had skin cancer, been divorced, or been raped by wearing a 'normal' swimming suit. AND since when do men not have self-control? Yes, women shouldn't use their bodies for attraction, but it's not just the women's problem. If we can put trust in men to lead our country, make our laws, and protect our freedoms, do they not have the capacity to control their thoughts and actions? I'm not saying that women shouldn't dress modestly. I choose to dress modestly, but I think a little bit of the pressure should be taken off the women of our society. We should all be accountable for our own actions.

I agree with Jean!! Women have to right to choose their swimming suits and i don't care if you think i am a bad person of wearing a normal swimming i wear a one piece, what's wrong with it? i would like to hear some remarks....ashley

I would only ask that my teenage daughter swim in what she feels comfortable. If this is the ONLY (and I mean ONLY) thing she felt comfortable in, then I would allow it.
Because of the way I've raised my child, I have a feeling that she will not feel comfortable in an itsy bitsy teeny weeny bikini (she's only 8 now). I never did. I preferred the men's board shorts and t-shirt no matter how svelte my figure was. However, I would NEVER force my child to dress like this.
It looks cumbersome and awkward at best.

I think the important thing is that your child be comfortable with who she is and what she was given. String bikins are not appropriate for teens, anyway. There is a comfortable compromise somewhere.

I am 16 year old Christian and have been looking for a modest swimsuit this whole year. I can say with almost full assurance, YOU WON'T FIND ONE IN A STORE! All those other girls can wear what they want, but I intend to get one of these suits. They are the nicest modest ones I've seen! Love 'em...
