I noticed you're straight, and I'm just curious how your family feels about the openness to speedos? Is it just super casual or is your family just very progressive/relaxed? I always imagined straight guys would be apprehensive about showing too much in general but when a lot of guys are together anything seems to go.

I would guess that your aunt is apprehensive because she fears some sort of homophobia or at least has some prudeness to anything that shows too much despite everyone wearing them.

There's certainly a stigma that goes with speedos. We never made a big deal out of it. It was a swimsuit and that's all. I guess it helps that all the men in my family wear them so it's easier for boys to be comfortable. My son just never thought any different

We just had a pool party this past weekend with the "swim parents" and every man and boy was in a speedo. It was kinda cool

I would not say progressive at all, maybe regressive because these suits were very common 40 years ago. They are swimwear in our opinions with no other connotation.

I have been wearing speedos around my girlfriend and my kids for years... pool, beach, boating. No issues at all. Usually it is fairly conservative and the smallest are speedo solar.

Last weekend for the first time I wore speedos when i took the kids to my parents house and swam in their pool. I just don't see any issue with it...nobody said anything about my speedos.

Just wear them everyplace you would swim. I see no reason not to.
