Even worse, jammers look just plain WEIRD.

Its ironic that you condemn any guy wearing a suit other than a speedos but go ballistic if someone makes a negative comment about your speedo. Just because you like to wear them doesn't mean everyone else has to wear them. Its called freedom of choice.

I don't verbally condemn someone else unless they condemn me first.

Freedom Of Choice goes out the window when someone opens their mouth and takes a "dig" at what I'm wearing.

Nothing ironic about firing back at someone's snide remark and I'm not shy about giving them a verbal equivalent of a volcanic eruption either.

That is not what you said -- there was nothing about responding to comments - only that: ]"I would like to publically ridicule every guy wearing knee length shorts because they distort the appearance of the body to the point it looks like Down's Syndrome."
In addition to sounding very narrow minded, you also sound intolerable to those with physical or mental handicaps.

I am curious as to where your speedos are getting negative comments. I have worn them all my life and I have never had a negative comment or a criticism. The only comment I can recall was from a friend that said "that is quite a suit you almost have on" His wife elbowed him in the ribs and said "you are just jealous cuz he has a great body and can wear them. With your gut, no one would see them on you"

Even if someone did make a negative comment I would probably not dignify their comment with a response unless it was to say "to each his own"

Hey Guys, As summer heats up, I think keeping cool is the thing to do. We all say something from time to time that in writing is perhaps aggravating to someone. Let's let it pass and not burn electrons proving who is right.

Lets face it, we as a posting group are either straight, gay, Bi, or anywhere in between. We may be from all over the world, from several countries, from several cultures. Our common thread is the "men's bikini style swimsuit" we all affectionately refer to as a speedo. To some, this board may foster their boldness away from shyness, or help explain their fetish if I can be so bold to say. To others it is a shopping counsel where we extol the features of suits we have had and wear. We compliment each other and advise.

Bashing someone or something serves no purpose at the end of the day. So may I give all a virtual hug and ask you pass it along in thought to those that venture here amongst us bikini clad males. Happy summer to you in your speedo.

the narrow minded approach to swim wear is a sad lashing to people that don't share the same attitudes. Usually generated by insecurity. However making references to people that are handicapped as a means of insults or degradation is the lowest and shows total insensitivity. (or just plain stupidity) What is sad is that someone with Downs would never say anything derogatory about another human. They look for the positive in life.

May I ask that we return to the thread topic of your earliest speedo experience if anyone chooses to do so. And that would include any experiences in between, for that matter. The notion is to share stories which will trigger memories and add to the thread..

My earliest experience was when I was young and watching the male divers in the Olympics, they looked hot, ripped and buff in those tiny little swimsuits. I asked my mom if I could start wearing one for a while did, then I got shy as I got older.
