Modest Swimwear and Sports Camp

I do this sportcamp every summer and we go swimming everyday after we finish our sport for the day. Some girls were really upset because they didnt feel comfortable wearing their bathing suit in front of their classmates and/or schoolmates. Some girls didnt even swim! You could definitely see the self-esteems got lower the more ugly you felt. Some girls wore one piece bathing suits and some wore tankinis(a skort and top), but most girls were wearing bikinis. The girls that were in like 3-5 grade just wore them because they thought they were cool and like the way they were made. But the girls that were in 8+9 wearing bikinis, they were wearing it to show off. Not all of the girls in those grades, but there was some girls who had very provocative swimwear.
I personally do not feel comfortable in a bikini, so this issue had nothing to do with me, but some girls had to wear a t-shirt over top because the teachers said they were inappropriate. Basically, I wear what I feel comfortable wearing, and I would advise you do the same too. Dont wear a bikini just because the popular girl at your school said it was cool, wear it because you want to.
