Opinions, Please

Thanks for the comments. I got 3 nude and 1 mixed, a little surprising to me since this is a swimsuit board. I also posted on a nudity
board and thong board. Nudity one was 11 nude and 1 mixed, more or less as expeected. No responses from thong.

Where did you get three nude from?
I thought you would see the joke in post#6 - an all-over tan from the moonlight and in privacy in the back yard - and a fire to keep you warm !

I interpreted the "he" in post 7 to be referring to me but now see that it was probably a response to post 6. Still a little surprising that no one on a swimsuit board recommended speedos only.

nude, save the speedos for in public

LOL - a little humor between Shaulis and me was somewhat obscure perhaps and he couldn't mean you as pictured as he doesn't know what you look like. Similarly I had to find a photo not of you (and I have no idea who that guy is) but simply representational of a fourth option for you in your dilemma.
I see Torchwatch needed some clarification too - and as three nude answers apparently came from here (and as such a surprise to you) I am still confused that we do not read those three replies in this thread.

Had to settle for a 6 foot fence due to zoning laws. Enough privacy to swim and sun naked, but need to wear something when vaccuuming the pool and other chores inside the deck since I could be seen from 2 neighbors decks. Did this mostly in my speedo solars last summer, but would like to try something briefer next year. Can anyone here recommend a minimal front pouck, half back, string side suit? Don't plan to swim in it, but use only to avoid being seen naked if a neighbor happens to be on their deck when I am doing chores.

Try Muscleskins. They now have offerings with as small as a 3/8" side, and you can customize the pouch width and depth, and choose the rear coverage you prefer. They can be found at http://www.muscleskins.com

I wasn't around when you initially posted, Minimalist75... but I absolutely love tan lines. And racer cut tan lines, I think, are the best.

So, here is my belated vote for true 'speedo' tanlines.

By the way, I also am on a nudist board (another new exploration to me, this year) and one guy shuns the typical nudist thinking on the topic and purposely preserves his swim brief tanlines. They look awesome!

I really like the look and feel of this one from BodyAware. In has a minimal front, string sides, and a Brazilian/tanga rear cut. Very shiny fabric, so even though you won't be swimming in it, it still looks like you just got out of the pool because of the fabric. Oh, and despite it having a metallic look to it, the fabric is very soft and pliable and really conforms to your shape, if you know what I mean. Mine is the blue one, but I also love the looks of the silver one.

(I am not posting my own pics of this one because this suit, especially, looks awful on my huge body. Someday I will lose weight, then share that pic.)

Went with skinzwear. Got a string side Rio and sunseaker. Latter is just two narrow panels that barely cover the crack and "goods" held together by strings on the sides. Other has somewhat more material front and back with string sides. Having second thoughts about wearing them where I could be seen by a neighbor on their deck.
