im sorry but this whole "i'll wear anything no matter how ridiculous it makes me feel if it keeps ppl from laughing at me" is just plain pathetic. thats the attitude of a teenager. you can have that attitude when youre a teenager. beyond that age do what youre suppose to do: grow up.
Ooh, you could write a book: The Speedo Diaries, the gripping tale of a man driven insane by the constant snickers. He teams up with an angry man in a leisure suit and fanny pack, and together they lay waste to smug yuppies in fashionable clothes.

Where would a guy in a Speedo carry a gun?

If never seen a man in a speedo except guys swimming laps in a pool. They also shave their body hair for less drag. Not most guys thing. If I'm going into the drink off the boogie board, tube or skies, the last thing I want on is a speedo. ~

But then again, you'll look pretty funny when you peel your jeans or pants off, tie the ends in a knot, and blow them up for a floatation device! Wrap the loop around your head and lean back. My arse isn't gonna be shark or tree stump bait!

Speedos keep everything stable. They're streamlined. They make me feel like I'm swimming faster.

Now you girls tell us why you get ugly tattoos on your lovely calves, sport deep cleavage when its below zero outside, and feel compelled to have plastic bags filled with god-knows-what implanted into your chests.

Obviously, the same reason women wear bikinis.

Yeah, but women look great and sexy in bikinis. Men in speedos don't. It looks like you left the house in your undees and went for a swim. Most women know, they get to see more outlines and imprints of "equipment" with regular wet swim trunks anyway.

Would you rather look at an "apple" all balled up in a knot or a "hot dog"? LMAO

I REALLY am uncomfortable with them! They are disgusting and reveal way to much. I think that aside from men on swim teams, they are worn by men who wear gold chains and bracelets.

If you're ever disgusted by somebody similar, feel free to send him my way!
