Today I went as a chaperone on one of my son's middle school field trips to the beach with the rest of his instructors and peers. I picked out a sexy white one piece to wear and swim in only to find out it was sheer in the water and all of my son's peers and instructiors saw everything. FML

OP here! To clarify when I said sexy it wasn't meant to portray that it was for the purpose of looking sexy, just saying it was fashionable not overtly revealing. I'm 28 in good shape and I'm proud of that! It's an 80s style ultra high cut one piece. Didn't have enough characters to word in that way in the post! Geez

When working with kids you wear basic dark swimwear. Gym teachers around the world will know. You can be proud all you want, but keep the baywatch-style for your own free time.

OP. Ok well sorry I'm not a gym teacher. Sue me for not keeping up with status quo rhetoric. The style wasn't the issue. It was see through and I didn't know it. Non-sheer white swimwear exists. This wasn't one of them.

OP, the FML community is a tough crowd and they'll vilify or console randomly. People like looking nice, so they put on nice clothes. It happened to be a mistake because the garment wasnt suited for the task, but it is ridiculous to vilify you for making an effort to look nice. And honestly, what clothing manufacturer makes a bathing suit that can't bathe..

Thank you. It was honestly a humiliating situation and I was hoping this could at least be an opportunity to laugh at myself and cheer anyone up having a bad day. Didn't expect all the hostility. I know how horrible it was. No one needs to remind me. Isn't that why this is called "FML"?

You should at least know that a lot of white bathing suits are see through. I don't even buy white bathing suits because I don't want anything to show. Just a little tip for the future OP.

Wear shorts and a tshirt ,tank top, or a COLORED bathing suit top that's not so revealing; you won't get so many negative responses.

Why are you even wearing "sexy" clothing to a field trip with loads of kids. What are you trying to do, impress the kids there? YDI

Isn't it kind of well known that white bathing suits are usually a little "revealing", also just curious why you wants to look sexy for a child's field trip?

dude. It's your son's classmates. No matter what color, you wear the thing that covers up the most. if you don't have it. you go out and buy it. you think your son will like his classmates talking about you? sheesh.

Why on your sons field trip would you pick a swimsuit that's in any way shape or form 'sexy', just why?!!! ******* bird brain.
