Maybe things are changing
I have been swimming at my local Y for about 6 weeks just about every day. Today while I was doing my laps there were 5 people in the pool, all men. Of the 5 of us, 2 were wearing briefs; me - a 1.5" Nike water polo brief, the other guy about my age was wearing what looked like a 3" Speedo; 2 were wearing square cuts, and one was wearing a boxer style trunk. This is the first time that briefs and square cuts were the predominant style. So things might be changing in the direction we have been talking about.
Earlier in the week, in the locker room I was changing into one of my Turbo suits after working out, having a conversation with a couple of guys I've talked with before. No dirty looks, no raised eyebrows; I was just a guy getting ready to swim. The same thing happened in the sauna, just ordinary conversation with no grimaces or negative comments. Both STS and I have said that people in Maine are very accepting and non judgmental which probably accounts for getting no negative reactions, but the kind of suits worn today in the pool is very promising. I hope it continues.
