Are you particular in selecting swimsuit colors and prints?
When I started wearing Rio style and smaller, I was always conscious to select masculine colors such as blues, black, turquoise and prints such as geometric shapes and patterns. I avoided pinks and floral designs.
This was due to the real or imagined stigma that florals and pinks were too feminine. Now I find those are some of my favorites.

I like to wear anything from solid colors to bright prints. Mostly wear rio bikinis or thongs on the beach

I currently only have solid colours though have toyed with the idea of florals. Always imagined my old aunt making me a tiny bikini out of left over dress material and wearing it infront of her. Those look great on you btw.

Thanks. I like my suits small with a pouch front. I think prints break up the outline. Then again, sometimes the pattern can be a focal point.

yes indeed. the more complex the print will get people looking and if the suit is tiny then the bulge will be more in focus.

I usually stick mostly with solid colors, not too bright although I've tried a few that attract a bit more attention.

I started wearing women's bikini bottoms specifically for the selection of prints. I love feminine florals and colors, and they do tend to show less anatomy than solids do.

If you like prints, check out BeachnDance. I have never found a better selection. I have many of their microsuits and thongs. I have read complaints about customer service but I have never had an issue.

I love red the most - nice with contrast side panel/ stripes. It feels erotic and the bright colour doesn't hide the bulge as compared to darker colours. And it draws a lot of attention at pool sides... inside the changing room also of course!

When I did the colour of the month challenge a couple of years ago the only colour I had difficulty with was pink. Some of my white, yellow and ice blue suits are too see through when wet to wear in a public pool, neither are some of my bikini briefs and thongs suitable for public display, but there are always quiet beaches to wear them on.

Pink is a statement, it says either you are camp or are so macho that you don't care if you wear something camp. It's easier to swim naked than to be seen wearing pink swim briefs.

My favourite swim brief turned out to be yellow Arena Santa Maria's, bright yet comfortable to wear anywhere yet last well in chlorinated or salt water.

Once we are over covid and the pools are open normally should I rerun the speedos colour of the month challenge?

I love to wear the solid, bright, and vibrant colors in swimwear and underwear (https://www.mensunderwearfan.com/mens-underwear-styles) that shine like sun when I wear them at the beach.

Bikenswim, I think the color is fine. Tie sides are not my style. I resisted wearing shades of pink for a long time but now it is one of my favorite colors. I have been looking for a clip side bikini but haven’t found any I like. I welcome suggestions. But who knows, maybe a hot pink tie side will one day be my favorite.

Here's a manly clip side hot pink bikini, good reviews too https://www.etsy.com/listing/969918238/mens-bikini-sexy-swimwear-saxon-rafaeli?variation1=1873982026

I clearly love the solid blue suits or ones with minimal print, I bought this thong for use at home in the hot tub. It is very light and comfortable.

You look wonderful in that suit. Great VPL and head outline

Thank you Bikiniman. I was not sure of how it would look on me. It sure is minimal and the wife loves it too.

For laps at the Y, I am a bit more conservative and find this Neptune Scepter nylon suit with the yellow squiggly lines a comfortable suit. The white material is a bit transparent when wet, but the pattern prevents a show the mothers might not appreciate.

Suits for all environments I say!!
