In reply to the discussion: Omaha woman loses 130 pounds, wins figure competition first time she wears bikini in public [View all]SusanCalvin
(6,592 posts)6. I think men bodybuilders wear the equivalent.
I didn't get at first that it was a "fitness" contest - I had a lot of knee-jerk reactions going on.
Still, this kind of creeps me out, for many knee-jerk reasons.
I liked the person on the left better, I just hoped she was reasonably healthy.
Then again, who am I to judge? If she's happy, then good. I'm not required to admire her for it, though.

i'm guessing a bikini in Omaha in January would be slightly underdressed for the weather.
