Why do you wear Speedos?

[Papadoop]

Just wondering what got everyone here into wearing Speedos? For me it started when i wore them as a kid sadly in high school had to switch to board shorts.
A few years back i plucked up the courage to buy a pair again and start wearing them for swimming.
They are much better for swimming in and keep everything intact and they look and feel great love the tight and snug feeling they give around the buttocks as well as being comfortable they feel erotic and i get off on wearing them.
And despite the myth women dont like speedos, the ones ive met whilst wearing them although they dont say their eyes, body language and flirtatious reactions say otherwise which i find a turn on.
So what got all of you into speedos?

Interesting thread! I discovered my fascination for speedos when I was around high school age. I've always been a fan of the male anatomy and the visual aesthetics of the stomach, thighs and bulge in a speedo. It took a while until I built up the courage to wear one myself. I started doing very amateur swimming at my local pool using my regular board shorts, which eventually got shorter and shorter as I became more and more daring. I never really made the switch to small speedos because in my head speedos were limited to the really skilled swimmers, and because I wasn't that great I didn't dare wear them. Like I somehow had to earn the right to wear speedos? A few years ago I decided I was gonna take swimming lessons. I remember packing both my board shorts and my tiny speedos just in case everyone in my class wore board shorts so that I could make a last minute switch :rolleyes: I was hoping enough people would wear small and tight swimsuits so that I would feel better wearing my tiny speedos. Me and the instructor ended up being the only ones in speedos, but only one other guy wore board shorts, the rest wore square cuts or jammers, which was awesome! The instructor wearing speedos helped my courage out a lot, and that was the beginning of years of speedo-wearing. Now, when I go swimming, I wear nothing but speedos. I can't even imagine the drag of board shorts, it must be like swimming in syrup.

I also developed joy for speedos in my high school years. Few guys st gym were fit swimmers. So wanted to get in better shape to sport speedo. Started with reg black speedo 36 from sporting good store. Pulling that speedo feeling that bulging feeling I was hooked. Over time my suit collection grew and gym got me to 34 suit. One my favorites now is speedo solar. Speedos have an erotic feel and give even masc guys a way to feel good about our bodies. Also enjoy cycling gear if any of you cycle! Cheers

I wear speedos because the law requires I wear something in public. Speedo is the choice since it is the only suit type I have ever worn. They were provided when I was in high school due to a wall of windows. (at the YMCA it was no suits)They took care of them so no one left a wet suit in a locker. Most of us did wear our own nylon and run them under the hand dryers a few seconds to dry them. When I traveled a lot they were practical since they dried quick for packing. Guess I never really thought about another style. I did have a couple of my buddies buy me board shorts so I would fit in. Found out real reason. They didn't like their wives checking my package.

My first introduction to a Speedo or bikini cut was when I was in Cub Scouts. The Den did a an Indian dress and dance and my mother put me in a bikini suit under my loin cloth for whatever reason. I was enamored by that little bikini. As I got into my teenage years I taught Red Cross swimming lessons at the local pool and a buddy of mine wore a Jantzen bikini cut and I soon followed. In college, my friends wore various brands of bikini cuts and so did I sealing my love for the tight form fitting bikini. So, for me, the tighter, the lower the front in reason and smaller sides, is my standard. the rest is history. The feel, the look, and the performance of a minimal swimsuit is what I like.

PSDave's story is a lot like mine. The local school district has a swimming pool, so we had swim lessons as part of our PE classes from fourth to eighth grade. All students were required to wear suits provided by the pool, which were briefs for the boys. After complaints from some of the students, the eighth grade students were allowed to bring suits from home, with the caveat that girls had to wear one-piece suits. Most of my classmates switched to shorts, but I continued to use the school provided briefs. At the time, I just said that I forgot to get another suit, but really, I liked them.

During my teen years my male breasts began to bud. My Mom took me to see the doctor. It's just something that some teenage boys go through and it will pass I was told. It didn't.

To lessen the focus on having breasts I enjoyed wearing Speedos when they were popular during the late 1970 s and early 1980's. When I was in my mid 20's during the 1980's another doctor informed me that I have severe gynecomastia (female breasts) with mammary glands. I chose not to have surgery, so she suggested that I work out with bench pressing of weights while maintaining my skinny 160 pound 6' 1" tall frame. Afterwards my breasts became even larger. I embraced having them and now wear the tiniest thong bottoms to focus any attention to my manhood rather than to my breasts. I keep my chest fully shaved all summer long.

When I visited public pools in the 1990's women were normally somewhat curious and inquisitive about my breasts due they are noticeably quite a bit larger than even my wife's and most of the ladies that enjoyed chatting with us. Out of curiosity I asked one lady her bra size at a nudist hot springs since we were both about equal. Size "D".

I am in my 60's now and still enjoy wearing the tiniest thong bikini bottoms to this day.

very bravely shared Glenda, well said.

I grew up in the late 60's/70's and speedos were the choice of suit for swimming at school. originally they were the heavy nylon type but as 'speedo' came along with the much lighter fabric most tended to go for them. they made them in our school colours so it was an easy choice. I loved the feel and clinginess when wet. So i've maintained my use of them as a choice for swimming, sunbathing but in much briefer styles. I wear them regularly at the pool attached to a local university where my gym is also located and have often seen the water polo team in the locker room in their speedos, so not an uncommon sight. I tend to think they are becoming more acceptable and tolerated than a few years ago.

I've been an active member a few years ago. Now after some time of absence, I think it's time to come back.

Well, in my country, Peru, speedos are only limited to swimming lessons. Maybe the same to the USA: if a man wears them at the beach, he's automatically labelled as gay.

I wore them as a kid at the swimming pool. I started to wear board shorts in the 90s during my teenager years. Then 5 or 6 years ago I started to wear them again. I love to wear them!

The answer is: beacause they are confortable and they make me enjoy my maculinity in some way. it's a strange feeling when I wear them at the beach in the middle of hundreds of conservative peruvian people, which is a mix of self-confidence, rebellion and challenging lots of stupid chauvinists males (quite common around here) that - I'm commpletely sure - are longing to wear something sexy too!

The reason for spending time around the beach and swimming holes in the summer is to feel the sensations of nature on your body. Less material allows you to feel more of this. If I wanted to wear clothes I could go to work.

Like other members have said, I developed my like for wearing Speedos in High School when on the school swimming team. On the beach I did wear those baggy board shorts, like other guys we were to ashamed to wear Speedo swimsuit, as they were too revealing. and were frowned on at our beach clubs. Once in college, I often got to wear a few brightly colored Speedos that fit quite well and really felt nice. Sadly there many guys too ashamed to wear them, as those Speedo swimsuit reveal too much of there male anatomy. It's too bad for them, they don't know what they're missing and those guys would probably look great wearing Speedos on the beach. Iv'e been wearing Speedo swimsuits a long time and they also feel great as summer underwear.

[SwimAddict71488]

I can’t pinpoint any one exact reason why I like them so ill list a few possible reasons.

1) I love the silky smooth feeling of nylon Lycra. I always have. Bottom line
2) I just prefer the brief/bikini style in general, whether as underwear or swimwear
3) I just feel a whole new level of confidence when I wear them. And I just feel like I’m in my own element.
4) In a sense, I like challenging norms
5) They’re fun to collect. There are many different styles and colors available. And you can always keep things interesting. I have quite the collection myself.
6) I’ve actually gotten a few compliments
7) much more comfortable in the water than board shorts
8) They’re just....better. Period.

So what got all of you into speedos?
It is very comfortable. My body was not feeling suffocation and was breathing very well. The fabric is very much soft and comfortable. The water doesn't enter inside keeping the inside body dry. And yeah man! It turned me on too :)

[Torchwatch]

Welcome Abram Jule, glad to hear you are enjoying your speedo self. I guess you are Spanish or Portuguese speaking, where are you and how many men wear swim briefs there both in the pools and on the beach?

[need4speedo]

Like many others, my fascination of speedos came at a young age when I was in Jr/High school. Anything nylon or spandex was a huge turn-on for a young male going through puberty. I always liked wearing bikini underwear as well so speedos weren't much of a stretch from wearing those either.

Over the years I purchased a few pair of speedos to wear under my jeans or outside to tan in private. It wasn't until I met my wife that I first dared to wear a speedo in public. I had told her that I wanted to buy a speedo to match her speedo one-piece for a trip to Florida. The next day we went back to the store and she ended up buying it for me.

Once we were on the beach, I had my shorts on over my speedo. She then asked if I was going to take off my shorts. I pulled off my shorts and my heart pounded like there was no tomorrow. Since that day, I've never wanted to wear anything else.

I like wearing briefs because I find it liberating to get your bulky cloths off and relax almost naked. Most western women know and love the feeling I'm talking about but men seem unable to let themselves enjoy it. I did experiment with nude beaches when I was about twenty but found I preferred the feeling of a snug brief and I liked the way you could wear them in public.
In my perfect world most men would prefer skin tight swimwear just like it is for women.

[MeSooQuiet]

I like the feeling of wearing the least amount possible in situations that going nude is not possible. I have decided to never wear trunks or board shorts again. From now on it is speedos or nude. How else is my collection going to get used if I don’t wear them?

[Bobbyboi23]

Very well put

Having been a competitive swimmer since I was eleven, and starting this in the early seventies when Speedo brand briefs were the team suit, that's all I've ever worn. Plus I hate jammers, they feel awful to wear. I have always swam my laps nearly every evening all these years, always in briefs, usually Speedo or Dolphin brand.

[swim suit eddie]

I want to add another reasons wearing Speedos. My good friend gave me a few pairs of Speedo swimsuits, he hadn't worn for a while and one Speedo that I took a real like to was a bright orange colored one that really fit tightly, yet covered much my lower body, also giving me a nice involuntary erection that certainly felt so snug and secure. That suit wasn't too tight, but a size smaller and covered me well with the exception of it fitting close and wedgied in the rear while exposing my lower rear buns. It really felt so comfortable, fitting so nicely and the girls liked seeing how my male privates were so well outlined in those tight orange colored tight Speedos, especially my exposed lower rear buns, they always wanted to pat or gently swat my rear, encased in orange lycra. It really felt great getting a lot of female attention, until my uncle saw me wearing that tight orange Speedo swimsuit at our swim club and before I could go in the pool that day, we went to his home. He let me keep the suit on for most of the early evening until it was time for bed, when he said"It's time to put on pajamas(baggy cotton silly patterned men's baggy pajamas.) I wasn't ready to give that nice Speedo, being it fit so well as summer underwear too and I wanted to stay Speedoed that night, but to no avail, when my beloved uncle climbed into the large bed with me and quietly saying" Speedo is coming off now."I had a lot of anxiety, as he rubbed me all over and gently swatted the exposed lower half of my rear buns with the bright orange swimsuit wedgied between them. Again while laying in bed facing each other, he managed to uncover the drawstrings and slowly untied them. That Speedo felt so snug and secure and I didn't think, he'd get it off me. This was the second time, I lost one of my favorite swim briefs to him in a while. I must say this time was beautiful, his gentle warm hands firmly trying to strip off my clinging bright orange Speedo. He was in all his glory just in baggy short pajamas and telling me "loosen up, it's coming off." It tickled so much while feeling that tight swimsuit slowly slipping down below my waist, despite trying to cover my outlined hard on encased in orange lycra and closely squeezed buns. He was winning, as he continued peeling the tightly clinging Speedo off me, closer and closer to my full erection still snug and secure in it. Now my moment of truth happened, as he first slowly peeled the bright orange and white colored inside lining off me while unsnugging my hard penis, now bouncing free. He whispered again "give it up,we're almost there." I had all I could not to release my energy, when he rolled me on my stomach while still lying in bed with him and me almost unspeedoed and out of that beautiful bright orange lycra swimsuit. It was almost over, despite tightly squeezing my rear buns, now feeling his hands tugging that still clinging Speedo off me, while getting it unwedgied from my tightly squeezed rear buns, then exposing my behind and privates. Soon he joyfully had me unsnugged and the Speedo down to my ankles, as I let out a loud yelp and had a healthy release of energy while he freed my kicking feet from the rolled down, beautiful bright orange colored tight Speedo. It certainly felt beautiful and loved the feeling of it being stripped off and he would give me a good swat on my bare behind with a joyous feeling of victory. It really felt so good wearing that swimsuit most of the day, but really enjoyed the way it came off me. This another of many reason for me wearing Speedos.

Wow that is AWESOME!!!!!
