This was given to me as a gift. I'm a petite woman (5 foot and 110 lbs.) and the small fit very well. I already had a white top so I just wore the bottoms. It looked a lot like panties and bra, not a swimsuit. A girl friend dared me to wear them to the lobby while we were on vacation without a cover-up to see if anyone says anything or looks at me funny . No one said anything until I started back. An older woman with her husband on the elevator said, "You're wearing your panties. I have a pair nearly like them." I was embarrassed but told them it was a swimsuit. The man told me I should be ashamed, my butt was in plain view for all to see, and what I needed was a good spanking. I used a couple of choice words and told him to mind his own business. We got off on the same floor. He grabbed me, bent me over under his left arm, then swatted my behind 30 or 40 times really hard. I was given the "cheeky" bottoms so he was right about my butt being seen and basically he was swatting my bare bottom, especially when they rode up after a few swats. When I got back to my room my girlfriend just so hard I thought she would pass out. Regardless of my predicament and my now very red bottom, I still wore this is a great, cute, and sexy swimsuit down to the pool even though some of the people there pointed and made fun of my red fanny!
