Hi all,
I am new to swimming and have a question as to the swim-suit etiquette for women. I am currently living in South Korea and being in a conservative country, women basically scream at me if I wear a swim suit without a built-in bra. Seriously, I have been pulled out of the pool and the lady who did that provided me with a pair of water proof bra to use while I was in the pool. I am so used to ballet where wearing nothing but tights under a leotard is a convention that I am wondering whether the same rule extends to swimming in the US. I will be leaving Korea for the US soon so won't be swimming here much anyway. If there are experiences swimmers out there, please let me know if I need to get a pair of water-proof bras to swim in the US. Thanks!
+just adding some thoughts after I read your answers--thanks much for the replies, btw.
I am a korean but I left my country in early 20s living in the US since then. Sometimes I am shocked at how much I forgot about what happens in my own country! As for the swimsuit issue, I am so surprised that women managed to see my nipples through a thick, black material. It is as if they were fixating on my swimsuit to figure out what is wrong--creepy! Glad to be back to the land of freedom! LOL

I hope you arrive safely, and you will probably be shocked when you see what little people wear, especially on the beach. Women wear bathing suits and clothing all the time that you can see their breasts through, its considered a personal decision here.

anyone know where i can find a cute two piece swimsuit for me? im 42DD and have tried so many stores..... it seems like they only have them for small breasted women..
i have a great body figure just big breast so i want a two peice...
Answer
I feel you girl, I'm 38 DD. I think the clothing manufactures assume that all big breasted women are hugely obese. You should do like 2fine4you says and buy them separately. Check catalogs like Victoria's secrets swimwear they go up to DD and you can buy tops separately, or Lands end you can shop online too. they always have my size in bras and bathing suits. You can try Lane Bryant too just for the tops but the bottoms will probably be too big.
