Now, I want to say I'm not a prude, but is it really necessary for men to wear the smallest swim suit they can find to go to Caspersen Beach? I mean really, some of these guys have no business in those tiny thong suits. My teenage son even thought it was too much. This is not a clothing optional beach is it? I see many famlies with young children there and I wonder is it really necessary to express yourself this way. They make self tanning products for those, not to be exposed in public, parts.

I have heard that there are naturalists that go to Caspersen, but I've never seen them. The thong suit is something that I see more on the east coast. But they seem to be ever more popular.
I'll tell my wife of your sightings....I'm sure she will want to verify and form her own opinion of whether men should be wearing these things.

I wonder if the people who drew your complaints are Europeans vs Americans

Only one was Thong Worthy! Seriously though I just don't think it's appropriate for any one on a public beach, male or female to leave nothing to the imagination.

These suits are not speedos popular with the European croud they are smaller. I worked in the medical field for 30 yrs so I've seen it all, but I don't want to see it all on the public beaches. I don't want to see that much of them and I am sure they do not want to see that much of me if you catch my drift.

In our experiences with public beaches in California, the next to nothing suit wearers are usually Europeans. Where's mr&mrs.sunshine?? Ask them!
We've been to a nude beach on St. Thomas too, and agree that most who are showing it should NOT be!!

That's my thinking - I did read on some website that Casperson was one of the beaches preferred by gays.

So does being Gay entitle you to bare your ass in public? As I said I don't want to see that much of their anatomy and I'm sure they don't want to see mine. I've seen loin cloths bigger than these suits.I go to the beach to enjoy the scenery and naked wrinkled butts just detract from the view.
