Why Americans do not men wear speedo ?

[Byron]

There is little in what you say that has not been said a thousand times already.
The adult male who is content with wearing his speedo today will often be quite sanguine because of memories of regularly doing so as a kid - it being an accepted and unremarkable garment and the norm to wear in his era for the beach and pool - and for any other recreational activity in hot weather for that matter.

The who, what, why, where, and when of a change to disgust and/or shame now seemingly surrounding it all *has never been definitively resolved to my knowledge - though I guess the search for an answer will forever be filling forums such as this (though even Sigmund might remain baffled).


*good point was made earlier that sales continue - new brands continually pop up and the world list on wiki amazed me in its length - so maybe a lot gets seen nowhere beyond the bedroom mirror?
