Chad Murphy: "That's what it's all about out here on the beach, you try to attract the opposite sex."
More Than Support
Breasts and bras.
“I first started to notice breasts when I was ten years old. Not my own, because I didn’t have any yet, but my mother’s. I had seen my mother dressing often enough; she was small-framed, and her pear-shaped breasts were average in size and proportionate to the rest of her.

Gilbert David Diaz: "I'm kind of out of shape right now, but I'm going to start boxing again."
Men's Summer Swimsuit Issue
Protect your thighs from board rash.
“Now, you ask me, the male physicality wasn't built for aesthetics. Those angles and edges, the purely functional proportions: men's bods are too utilitarian, at least for my taste. (I prefer a woman's gentler curves, that smallness, the supple delicacy; that's just me.)”

I had babysat there several times before. The family owned a fancy hot dog stand at the local mall's food court; I was thinking of working for them.

I started the sleeves when I was 25 and finished last year, just after my 27th birthday.
Got Some Skin Left?
Ink gets under your skin.
"When I was eight, I saw a tiny red devil tattoo on my dad's left bicep. That devil might have been no bigger than a golf ball, but he couldn't have made a larger impression. In coming years my father would uncover tattoo magazines under my bed, find a cigar box I'd marked "Savings for Tattoo," and uncover checklists I'd made outlining the process of immigration to the Philippines."

Tell Me What You're Wearing
Everyone is watching you.
"I used to see all these ads for Hawaiian prints, so I tried wearing those. I grew up in Iowa; it just didn't work. Neither do muumuus, which people wear out in public. And those sweats. Okay, you're a mom, you're busy. You're going to the gym, it's everyday use, but you can still dress up."
