“My sisters were wearing them too and she didn’t talk to them about it,” she said.
“Plus, the idea that she would think wearing a bikini around my brothers and dad is “wrong” really made my skin crawl.”
“This seemed to tick her off even more, and she accused me of trying to seduce my brother-in-law by wearing a two-piece. (Note: he wasn’t even on vacation with us, he was out of state).”
Her mom ended the conversation by insisting that she had to put on a one-piece for all future family vacations or she would be banned from attending. She just said alright and walked off after that.
Although this all happened last summer, her mom began talking about this recently, and it made her wonder if she was somehow in the wrong or embarrassing to her family.
“But my mom has bullied me for my appearance since I was in elementary school and controlled the things that I wore and ate so strictly that it gave me an ED,” she continued.
“I felt like by standing up to her I was standing up for myself. Plus, she said all those mean things. Was I really being inappropriate in front of my family?”
“I really didn’t do anything at the beach besides collecting shells, sunbathing on a towel, and swimming.”
Here’s what the internet had to say.
“Put her on blast. You should tell your Dad and brothers what she said…Ask them why your own mother thinks her sons were you checking out their own sister.”
“You say your mother has bullied you your entire life. Cut contact already. She’s gross and abusive.”
