In reply to the 'bikini' thread,

Blokes... what do you wear? Speedos or shorts? I personally think that one must NOT wear speedos unless one has a 6 pack... and not of Doradas ;) :D

It has to be this...

Not this....!

Billy Connolly said of Speedos that "it makes your mickey look like a baby's arm hanging out over the side of the pram"! Shorts for me, I haven't either the body or the ego for Speedos!

Speedos - budgie smugglers - banana hammocks..... are acceptable in most cases but thongs.... (not the flip flop kind..) are just plain wrong on the larger man.... Especially if the wearer bends over to pick something up...... Ass flossing..... Yeuch!!

I totally agree with you here kirstyJay...

The male species should not wear speedos unless A a small boy in which case speedos or shorts dont matter or B they have the body to pull it off...

I would rather see a heavy woman in a bikini than a heavy man in speedos..

My ex who has a fantastic body took me the beach when we 1st got together i thought nothing of it till i noticed my boyf was wearing a thong like speedo!!
I burst out laughing in shock as i wasnt expecting it but i did enjoy being the girlhe was all over on the beach whilst other girls just got to look!
I believe this is similar 2 how i looked all day!! :raspberry2:

well . . . . . i wear Speedos . . . . But I think you're referring to the 'style' not brand name, as mine are always 'trunks' not 'knickers' style !

YES (unfortunately) exactly like that!! Ewwww.. Bit like the Simpsons episode where Homer puts one on and it disappears so he repeats the process saying "I don't know where they're going but I hope it's a good place" (or something like that!!) :D

I'm a bit confused ??? What's the difference between the trunk style Speedo and the 'knicker' type? Can someone post pics please so I can see.

Well with a bottom like that, I prefer the 3rd picture ;)

I heard on the radio ages ago that it was a no, no for men to wear the Speedo type briefs and so I told OH he had to get something else to wear (he is very slim by the way) but when I went to the gym everyone was wearing the brief type. There was only one old man wearing some horrible yellow shorts!

Now I do keep checking these men out every time I go swimming, purely for research purposes of course, and virtually no-one wears shorts for swimming.

Men - where what you want. Women do and you don't half see some sights!! :)

My other half wears speedos,i hate them,ewww,if i could burn them without him missing them i would lol.You can see everything in them and he always says no one looks,okay of course not lol.I mean if women wore bikinis what showed off there camel toe would men not look?????

Okay 6 pack and nice tanned body very nice but gets a stage when i think ,no this just does not look nice.Find it very old fashioned and it reminds me of men that use to wear them with the big medallion necklaces ewww,as my dad says get rid of the budgie hammock.

24-09-2011, 07:15
Where have I been all these years? I'm hearing expressions I've never heard before!! Camel's Toes? Budgie Smugglers? Hilarious!

I still say if men are wanting to do 'proper swimming' then Speedos are the order of the day.

I'm off to the gym in a while and I'll look out for the Budgie Smugglers!! Well after all this talk, where else would I be looking? I don't think I'll be able to look a Speedo wearer in the face again!! :crazy:

Goforgold
24-09-2011, 16:07
Right!! I went specially into the swimming area after the gym to do my research, a bit difficult because I couldn't sit with my prescription goggles on in the jacuzzi and so everything was a bit blurred!!

It was a shame because there wasn't the usual amount of men there today, but the few I did see were wearing 'shorts'. Mind you all of them were well overweight and Speedos would have disappeared in the rolls of fat!! I have to say being overweight even in shorts, isn't a good look!!

I will force myself to go back Monday and check a few more out! ;)

Speedo update - no, I haven't been looking for Budgies, that's on Saturday!! However, OH's new Speedo swim shorts arrived today - WOW!!! They are much sexier than the Speedo briefs and they aren't those horrible things with long legs either - fantastic. ...........:inlove:

Thanks very much for this thread - I would never have known about them.

I don't think your OH would be walking around in these Speedo shorts - they are very short, not the sort to go walking around the streets, very sexy!! ;) If your OH does wear this type for walking around, can you let me know when he's out please? :) - for research purposes only of course!! :D

Well? Have you seen him again Lozzie?

We went on the beach first time this holiday - I did a lot of research and I think my OH might have done too - never seen so many topless ladies!!

My conclusion on the Speedos is, that although the briefs are ok if the man is slim, they look a bit dated. I think the Speedo short shorts are the way forward!! :)
