I found the cutest string bikini bottom and top in a bargain dept. store and never having worn one I had to buy it just to see how it fit me ($1.99 each piece). I just looked at the bottom and compared it (mentally) to the way my panties feel in my hands and guessed at the size. It fits me perfectly and I am thrilled! It stretches some so when my hips get a little bigger it will still fit. The top took a little thought but when I figured it out I had to tell myself-DUH! I can't wait to wear it out somewhere! It is blue with silver metallic horizontal stripes and I love it!

must be nice to have GRS/SRS, i can go the beach in a regular bikini it will be another year before i can wear something skimpier if i choose to.

I haven't had any surgery yet but I do have a feminine shape. I was born with hips &  legs that are right (somewhat) but the rest has had to rely on hormone therapy to shape up (testosterone poisoning took quite a toll on me) but I have an aunt (poor thing) who is more masculine than me. My chest is a large A-cup and has begun to grow again. My new haircut and color helps alot too. I'm not yet where I want to be but I am gettin' there! It is true what others have said-confidence goes a long way with our presentation. Now if I could just get the face worked on LOL- but all in due time.

Right on Randi  I wish I could be so adventurous... But at my age I think I'll stay with  my skirted one piece... LOL

Cool!  It sounds like an awesome suit.

Sometimes (when I'm in the right mood), I'd love to wear a string bikini but my body type doesn't allow for it xD (so try and keep slim so you keep with the bikini).
