    I think what makes them often NOT look good, or rather, what many people might find off-putting, is that the lining underneath is just insufficient to hide the shapes (even, textures) they contain. Gotta pack it up in public!

    After years of boys and men in teensy track shorts, dancing tights, and lightweight yoga pants, I've learned not to stare down there. It isn't any worse than what shows in some of the skimpy outfits that women wear.

    Hmm, I don't think we're quite as generous with our gens in bikinis as men are in the speedos.

    I don't mean to stare and stop if I find myself doing it, it's just sort of right in the middle of a person, there, though, isn't it? Looking like a bag of melted crayons.

    It's a body part.

    Joke: what's better than roses on the piano?


    (tulips, organ, hardy har.)

    yeah, it's a body part, and? i still think it looks unappealing, all mashed up in there, like a bag of rotten onions

    like a bag of baby elephants that fell into a blender

    like a bag of sick

    i think if it were all unfolded, and covered with something like a long tuque, i might feel differently, maybe.

    (it's not that i'm delicate, i just think it's aesthetically challenging.)

    It doesn't look like those things to me, and I don't feel that I'm unduly forced to look if someone wears tight swim trunks.

    Even at my thinnest and most muscular days on the swim team my Speedo was not flattering. I had a 6 pack and was around 9% body fat.

    Speedo = No No

    Agree, not attractive

    I prefer the look of bikini underwear on a man (no thongs, please; butt-floss is a hygiene nightmare on anyone!), so why not a bikini swimsuit?

    I've seen bits and pieces before. I'm not offended. And I can always look somewhere else.

    Same goes for body hair. We're real people, not marble statues.

    what's the the problem in having an extra bit of lining in the crotch? craigian bulge = manly, attractive. jingle-jangle on the wrong person = a little too much reality. there's only so much of most strangers i want to get to know off the bat. so to speak.

    Please don't. I don't care if you're packing an anaconda. A speedo is just not attractive.

    She said it all :)

    This. Some people look at me like I'm weird...but they're just jealous of my legs. boardshorts are for 12 year old boys and surfers.

    I agree. Go you!

    Robin Williams once did a bit about a chick who got sand in her thong,took a walk on the beach and sawed herself in half.

    Wore a speedo to the beach today. Based on reactions, I'd guess significantly more women like them as opposed to board shorts, and I even got a few complements.

    Depends if he looks like he stuffed an Anaconda down his speedo then yes we should encourage it. If it looks like a thumb sticking up then NO NO we should not encourage it.

    If he's 50 or over and it looks like he's dragging bowling balls in his speedo then No and we should emphatically discourage it.

    My grandma used to call them "plum smugglers". lol
    Speedos are fabulous on days when I'm mentally tired and don't want to have to expend energy imagining what he might bring to the party...

    Oh come on. Some guys show, and some guys grow. Plus it's usually a little cold where men are wearing speedos...

    For the record: NO on the wearing of Speedos as normal beach wear. Athletic competitions are okay.

    Oh no they dont give us a break so they get no excuses...grower, pffffft :grumble:
