Speedos are practical for (you guessed it) swimming. They are comfortable, dry fast, and leave a nice tanline. The knock on them for being unsightly (esp. on over weight hairy guys) or gay is bogus. It's the obesity not the swim suit that is unsightly. A fat stomach hanging over the waist band of a Speedo OR board shorts is not fun to look at. Flat firm fit abs are attractive in Speedos AND boardshorts. Plenty of straight and gay guys like Speedos. Some women don't like to see the outline of a guy's package, but some dig it. So look or look away. To each his/her own. Live and let live.

BTW – your post comes off sounding like there is nothing that you do like, and you want the entire beach to yourself .

This kind of internet junk posting is so last decade or 20.

Boys/guys or men wearing speedos are really not interested in what people, be it male or female think about them.

I couldnt a hoot what anyone thinks

Speedos are cool to swim in, the freedom of movement vs trunks or shorts is vast, woman should try trunks one day to see why the trend is to move to speedo type swimwear on males.

So the move is now to get males to wear speedos everywhere and I've been spreading the word everywhere like here

Sweetie? When the girls who are waaaaaaaaaay to fat to wear a potato sack say nothing of swim suits, bikinis, cut-offs, tube tops, thongs etc. stop wearing them and cover up, then we have the right to ask men to stop wearing racers. Until then, stfu.

fluffy air-balls for brains. This is the most ridiculous, narrow-minded, backwards-small town (please stay in it…..) set of… rules??? I've ever read in my entire life.

Fell across this page… another prudish, uptight, stuck-up, valley girl, as worse or worse then trashy people. How many people have you demeaned through High School to get where you are?

I've been, and will continue to wear, Speedo-type swim briefs. I have shaved and removed most body hair. College Candy, who appointed you into fashion police force? I RESENT EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SAID!!! I am also organizing Speedo & bikini wearers to fight morons like you. Let that be a warning.

ok, i have a couple complains and agreements with this post. first off let me just say what i agree with:
1) the sandals… i would tend to agree with you on the whole sandals thing… its just WAY more comfortable to go bare footed.. no sand getting in between anything and your feet and chafing the crap out of them.. that and some sandals just look dorky as ALL hell.
2)the back hair… oh… my… FU#@ING GOD YES !!! shave that or wax it or burn it, but do something that makes it go away !! show the world that you are willing to take of your body enough to at least make it look presentable ! you wouldn’t go to a job interview with a big ass bushman’s beard would you ? then why would you go to the beach with a Persian rug on your back ?!
and 3) the dorky hats… unless you have some pre-existing skin condition that requires you to cover up then you have no business wearing those things. my mother has had skin cancer and now needs to keep the exposure her skin gets to the sun to a minimum, but she enjoys being outside, thus she has to wear hats like the one you showed… your blurb on how they are generally not appropriate comes off as VERY ignorant, which could be chocked up to just poor choice of wording
now, the things i do NOT agree with:
1) the speedos… sorry to say, i’m one of the RARE male North Americans (Canadian to be exact) who actually prefers speedos to shorts (while i’m not in the proper shape to wear them at the moment… thus i wear shorts till i AM ready for the speedos), and i would have to agree with the previous comments on how people need to be less prudish around here.. and also the one about how guys are not the only ones who should have restrictions on what they are allowed to wear at a beach… having grown up in the maritimes i spent every summer on the beach… and i have seen some girls wearing bathing suits that they REALLY should not have been allowed to wear. i don’t think the problem lies with the bathing suit, i think it lies with the wearer of said bathing suit… if you have enough roles to make a bakery jealous, you should not be wearing skimpy bikinis or speedos. but if you are in great shape, why the hell not show it off ? as the saying goes “if you got it…flaunt it !”
2) the whole farmer’s tan thing… a lot of the time, people don’t have the luxury of spending countless hours sun bathing at home, as they might work all day, and a lot of the time the ones who have said farmer’s tans, work outside, and are not allowed to take their shirts off. people go to the beach so that they can try to even out that tan as much as possible. so really… there is no place that people with farmer’s tans should be more, than at the beach.
3) the shirt in the water thing.. its been covered by people already, and the same thing goes for the shirt in the water as with the large hats, some people need to keep covered up as much as possible, but still want to enjoy swimming, nough said
4) the mirrored sun glasses, personally i think you are being quite petty on this point. there are some mirrored sun glasses that look REALLY good on people. and if you don’t like them, nobody is forcing you to talk to those people (though, as a common curtisy (spelling?) if they are talking to you, they should at least lift the sun glass up on top of their head and off their eyes… this is just proper conversation etiquette).

All this stupid hate speedos from women who like to go to the beach with nothing more than a Stsing bikini makes me sick. some of you women should take a look a your selves and and say lose the string bikinis. Not all women at the beach look so hot in what they are wearing, further more have you never herd of the athletic supporter. If a man wears a speedo he should tuck his stuff under the supporter that way his stuff does not show as much.
