Be fashionable this summer with the Beijing Bikini

That could look hot with a conventionally attractive belly and perhaps some low-cut pants. Odd choice to not just wear tank tops/undershirts, though - exposing your armpits is huge for ventilation.
- Hot-girl summer is genderless
- Odd choice to not just wear tank tops/undershirts
  Oh trust me, they roll those up too. For the full bikini effect.
- That's how it's done in India.

that's why crop top should be more acepted for unisex clothing.
- We must go back to 80's hot guy standards
  
  80s hot guy fashion with 20s body standards
- Hell yeah, crop tops for everyone would solve this whole issue and they're way more stylish then rolling up a t-shirt lol

(I hella need to clean the mirror...)
- O la la!
- You are doing it wrong, according to the wiki you should look like a grandfather and not kickass!

Wait.
Grandfathers exposing themselves is so frequent that they have a word for it?
- It's basically a compound word created to describe this phenomenon, don't worry lol
- Where I come from, nowhere near China, it's pretty common to see old men shirtless in their gardens. Hell, my neighbor pretty much just hanged around in his undies all day every day from May to September lmao
  Technically now he's a great-grandfather.
- That's where you steal stuff while you're hanging dong so if you get caught you have a distraction
  
  Not sure it'd be much of a distraction.

The Balkans have had this ages ago... I guess it was called Balkan Bikini this entire time it's just that no one named it...

Is it distinctive, though? I went to Mexico and saw this everywhere from folks who seemed like locals.
- It's very common in Vietnam too
  
  And India

I do that and I just get called gay slurs.

This is all across SE Asia. I've seen it through Cambodia, Thailand, The Philippines, Laos... it's a heat thing.

Instructions unclear poured water unto flannel over shirt, now cool but truck bench is now wet.

I don't get why they don't just take off their shirt if its so hot?
- Because then you have to set it down somewhere
  
  I do it all the time and hang it somewhere. off a belt or just keep it round my neck. If its real hot you need to free up the pits.
- Maybe they think it's indecent to expose their nipples. We certainly seem to think like that when it comes to women's wear, see regular bikini tops.

I call it Couch Status Quo
