i think it depends where in the world you might wear it. I think European beaches might be accepting; there are plenty women wearing see-thru swimwear. A number of years ago I wore a very brief (1cm) white bikini speedo to a beach in southern Spain and it turned out to be partially transparent as my , then, wife told me but no-one else seemed to care. we walked quite a distance from our spot on the beach around a small head land to a more populated area which had a small bar and toilet/ wash house. I took another dip in the sea at that point which again made my bikini partially transparent much to the enjoyment of the lady janitor at the wash area. She certainly the view! My current wife favours white bikinis for the beach and has very brief Brasilian styles which leave little to the imagination and she's quite happy to wear it without concern. I enjoy that...
