Worst thing ever seen at a pool

[Schoolspeedo]

yes it's a funny old world! I blame the fashion industry and certain people there who decide on what people should or should not be wearing. There seems to be a total negativity to anything skimpy for me yet women can wearing the tiniest bikinis and generally people will applaud them- except here in the UK where Victorian attitudes still persist. My wife, who is considerably younger than me will wear the tiniest g-strings/thongs as underwear and tiny bikinis on the beach but doesn't like me in my brief swimwear or underwear. It hurts.

Doesn't like you in brief underwear? Who else is going to know?

Anyway, I wear swim briefs while my wife wears a one-piece and no one complains. It wouldn't bother me if she did wear a bikini, but she seems to lack the confidence.

My wife who wears either a one piece or shorts and a tank top, likes when I wear speedos - I wear an Aussiebum Swish brief or a Tactics swim brief with sides about 1.5 or 2 - I like the low cut in the front. I certainly don't have great abs, but I'm also not overweight and have a pretty flat stomach so I feel OK about the way I look. Neither one of us really cares what others think; we've reached the age when we don't have to worry about that sort of thing. When we've visited France and Italy, I saw many more guys of all ages and more recently, in Oahu last September, more men in bikinis than the last time I was there, 3 years earlier. So, hopefully there is a trend back to speedos.
