From my heterosexual experiences in my high school days in the early 70's, all the girls really liked the look of athletic guys in short shorts or tradtional swim trunks. The usual erotic talk from girls was something to the effect of "You look so sexy in your PE uniform or your swim suit".
Back in those days, guys wearing "boardie shorts" were a nonexistant phenomenon and they would be viewed as "Dorky". I guess the stigma and negative response speedos get today is from indoctrination from various puritanistic (and usually homophobic) groups.
However, as I've posted on several occassions, many guys are rejecting "Half Pants" and the shorter look is definitely making a comeback.
