Why is it socially acceptable for a woman to wear a bikini to the beach and not a bra and underwear?
They're essentially the same thing, just different pattern/fabric.
So why is it socially acceptable for a woman to wear a bikini to the beach and not a bra and underwear?
I think it's only because generally people associate the type of pattern and fabric (such as lace, animal print, etc) used to make bras and underwear with the bedroom (they're called "intimates" for a reason). This is probably because of the media frequently featuring women wearing fancy looking lingerie with certain types of patterns and fabric. So it's not necessarily because of the amount of skin exposed, because obviously it's the same amount for bikinis and bra & undies.
Also, one practical reason might be that it may not be appropriate to wear regular bra and underwear at the beach, since they are generally made with thinner fabric so they would become see through when wet. And there might be kids at the beach or something...
