I hate to break this to you, but NOT all women do.

I feel the same way about women's breasts in a bathing suit also. It is to revealing for my eyesite, I find them disgusting to look at.
Ugh, really, do you have to really show all that, kinda makes my stomach nautious.

Men's mags, and models portrayed on TV, make a lot of 'ordinary women' not so attractive to us men. Which shouldn't be the case, really.

Why do we have to have the 'perfect' body shape to be sexy?

To me being sexy is as much FEELING sexy as looking sexy.

I don't have a problem with seeing women's breasts (being a straight male is besides the point, actually a lot of the time I don't find breasts a lone all that arousing) NOR a man's 'junk', as long as it is covered. Only prudes have a problem with that. In Europe men often wear speedos and women go topless. No one has an attitude problem over it. Some folk here need to really stop being so offended by things.

here in America it only seems to be what men, do, what men wear.....

never women.

Ok so you can see an outline of a penis, duh, were men, we have one.

ugh if that is something that offends you, then there is a bigger problem there than meets the eye.


it is an American thing.

we are backwards

Haven't read all this stuff, so this may have been said before.....

REAL men don't need Speedos to make them look like Real Men.

REAL women don't need bikinis either.

It's all in the eye of the beholder as to whether anything is worth "showing off" Usually, it isn't.

Exactly.

There's no logical reason why men shouldn't wear short shorts. They did in the 50s-80s and no one complained. Stupid judgemental sheeple started calling it 'gay' because only women wear 'em nowadays, so anything 'female' is by default gay.

I think it has more to do with participating in extreme sports than it does showing off. If you are a man, bitting the dust at 30 MPH on the lake is usually better in regular swim trunks. I've yet to see a guy wearing speedos for that...including ME.

What do you mean? Almost all fashion magazines are for women. There are several threads on the front page of this forum about women's clothing. We are subject to just as much scrutiny as you.
