I think a Speedo Solar (or similar) are quite acceptable and revealing enough. Anything smaller turns into a cliche for the gays. If attire looks like an attempt to be noticed or revealing it sends a message - slut or insecure. Thongs are great to wear - especially for sunning - but appropriate location and actions a must. A beachside bar waitress told me at the height of thong popularity. "Two types of guys wear thongs. First is the real jerk that think flashing a naked bum and bulging scrap of fabric will attract women. The second are the gays. However, the gays seem shy and usually stayed covered when not in ocean or on their towel." She did add that there are also the minority that lost a bet, are pressured by wife/girlfriend or are just curious about the feel. Personally I like the Aussiebum 1.5 nylon suits. I used to wear the Rio cut or Tanga suits. Hom made great suits in those days and quit for some reason. I was glad to see Aussiebum and Rufskin bring them back. I think that the wearers attitude is key to the wearing of any suit. If his actions pretty much ignore what he is wearing or showing off, people don't give it a second thought. If he is constantly fiddling with it (or the contents) and checking to see if people are looking, it says he is not really comfortable and wears it to attract attention. My ex-wife said she doesn't care what men wear but finds the guys wearing a speedo type suit that are obviously too small and tight as offensive. "Why can't the accept they have gained weight and buy a bigger size? The stuffed sausage look makes them look even more in need of diet or exercise. Some even look painful" (just so you know, she said the same about women)
Wearing clothes that accentuate your better points is great -- if they attract attention because they look too small or too revealing for the wearer -- that the wrong look. I agree on the Asian suits - the look painful and very uncomfortable. I don't understand why a guy would put on a suit that seem better suited for the female anatomy. I was given one when in Japan. I started to try it on but after holding it up I decided it would not be easy to get on and too tight, I regifted it.
