Female attitudes, or lack of, about speedos

[SoCal2023]

I've heard several theories over the years.

One is that men are more visual and are attracted to a woman's appearance whereas women are more attracted to a man that can provide (ie wealth). The first part is evidenced by the number of magazines depicting female nudity versus the number of magazines depicting male nudity.

Another view is more tailored to the issue of men wearing speedos. I've heard more than once that some women (most?) believe that men in speedos are not attractive because they (the women) prefer that men "leave something to their imagination" when it comes to men's beach attire.

Fortunately, my significant other likes (or silently tolerates) my choice of swimwear. Although I do think she prefers the square cut suits over the thongs.

Just my .02.
