Board shorts...yes. Speedos...no.0

Since we have the bikini thread, I think it only fair to have something similar for men. We're always so worried about what women are wearing, what about the guys? LOL
No size is right for a Speedo, they're wrong on anybody.0 -
I guess I'm the exception here, because they don't bug me. I've been scuba diving for 30 years, and lots of guys wear speedos while diving so they don't have a swimsuit bunching up under their wetsuit. Few of them have the bodies of those three guys pictured above, unfortunately.0

Boooooooo.. I thought you were talking about the "other" big.

For the love of all that is holy PLEASE, guys, NEVER WEAR A SPEEDO. Speedos are only appropriate for men competing in swim competitions and even those guys don't look that great in speedos.
Agreed 100%. In my swim program the men wear jammers but I would never wear them in public (at least during a triathlon I get to hide in a wetsuit! )0 -
If it's hanging out, it's too big.
*prays it comes up*0 -
Same answer as for women and bikinis - no size is too big or small, if you feel comfortable in it, it's OK.
As with women, adding a few more inches of fabric doesn't fool anyone into thinking you're thin if you're not.
Serious comment aside - I don't consider the James Bond swim trunks to be speedos... I think they are much cooler!0 -
My 81 yo mother calls a speedo a "marble bag"!!!0

Honestly, I don't think women hate speedos as much as they state they do.
I started training for a triathlon about 3 months ago, prior to that I had never worn a speedo. (& no, boardshorts are worn at the beach)
My training partner is female, she purchased them. I don't think I've grossed anyone out, Yet.. haha0 -
When your "fruit" is hanging out of the "loom" it is time to can the Speedo.0
-
Please....no banana hammocks!0
-
whatever shape you're in, unless you looking for people to point and laugh, i would avoid it.0
-
i change my answer, though i know people who laugh at men in speedos, i think its kind of like an ad... at least the ladies (or gents) would know what they were getting!0

I wear a speedo whenever possible. People can laugh, stare, shudder, etc... all they want, but it's about me being who I am. If anything, being a speedo wearer has taught me to be less judgmental of other people's tastes. I work hard to maintain a fit physique mainly because I want to look good in my speedo. I'm not cocky or arrogant by any means, but of course I want to look good.
Maybe instead of looking at some guy wearing a speedo and being grossed out, you should say...good for him for being himself.0 -
wear what you believe makes you look and feel good I say0
-
i wear speedo shorts, does that count?0

About 18 months, in my opinion :laugh:0
