In a video On her TikTok page, the content creator known online as “Cuzin Suzy” explained that her decision to wear shorts instead of bikini bottoms comes from “respect” and her gypsy methodologies.
Suzy stressed that she wouldn’t mind wearing a bikini when she’s out with her family, but when she’s out with friends, it’s different.
The sarongs she wears over the bottoms are “very, very sheer,” meaning you can “see everything down there.”
“Obviously a bikini is a bikini, people wear bikinis all the time,” she said.

“But for us it’s more a matter of respect for other people’s husbands and wives.
“Some of us only wear bikinis, but I prefer it when not everything down there is visible.”
Another reason Suzy prefers to wear shorts over traditional bikini bottoms is because they don’t get “tangled” when she gets out of the pool.
“It’s just a matter of comfort,” she continued.
“Comfortable, you know, looks nice.
“Respect our friends’ husbands, that sort of thing.”
And while she says she’s well aware that people will think she’s “crazy” for her swimwear choice, she plans to be just as “reserved” as the ladies she’s out with.
“I don’t want to say we’re covered from head to toe and everything,” she concluded.
“But it’s just nice not to have your whole bikini bottom up your ass, I guess.”
“Good for you, nice to hear you have these values,” someone commented on the TikTok video.
“Swimming trunks are really the best,” added another.
“They can also look really cute. There are some great options.”
“100% agree,” wrote a third.
“It’s different when you go with just your husband, but when you go with others, you’re right. And it’s also respect for yourself!”
Facts about Gypsy and Traveller communities
Normally, the term Gypsies is used for the Roma people who migrated to Europe from India, while the term Traveller refers to a person of Irish, Scottish or English ancestry.
It is estimated that there are around 300,000 Gypsies, Roma and Irish Travellers living in the UK.
All three groups live nomadically, but as it becomes increasingly difficult to find land to live on, many are moving to permanent housing.
They value family life highly and often continue to live close to each other even after they grow up and get married.
Often it is the men who take care of the family, while the women stay at home.
While many English gypsy girls are allowed to drink alcohol and go on holiday with their girlfriends before they get married, this is not the case for their Irish gypsy girls.
“100% agree,” someone else added.
“I’m in my 50s and always wore shorts with a bikini top. I love your respect for yourself and others.”
In another video, Suzy showed off the different colors and patterns of swim shorts she bought from Shein for the vacation, including a bright pink pair and a leopard print one.
