I usually wear a plain simple one piece. Sometimes a tankini which it what I used more often after pregnancy because it covered the obvious-to-me stretchmarks on my thighs. When I'm out with just adults and don't expect a lot of kids around though I will wear something much like B above. Obviously I like to swim and have several suits that I like.
My usual one is almost exactly like the black one at the top.
Basic one piece

I grew up with these kind of people. I'm from the North (ok born is SC but lived in Wis since I was 3) and my whole church wore swimwear much like this. In fact the woman went to a different place than the men and they were usually remote swimming holes or lakes and not the public beaches. My mother made me wear a one piece suit with "culottes" I hated those things. They were annoying and stuck to me. In one sense it made me more comfortable in clothes. I have been known to just dive in when I wanted to go swimming and not bother removing my clothes. On the other hand I've been known to go skinny dipping. Mom caught me once and I got grounded for 2 weeks AND a spanking. You are right it's a conservative religious group that I lived with it that way. It was very Conservative Baptists. Since then I have not run into very many Baptists who are quite so strict. The kids that I grew up with have completely dropped the RULES that we lived with.
