A lot of the guys that I swim with would shy away from any speedos for their own reasons-most of which would be how they perceive modesty. I always say it's a lap pool damit and the objective in most cases is to improve your workout by being an "efficient" swimmer and part of that is streamlining and not dragging around a bunch of unnecisary material. I think that when a guy shows up with very very brief swimwear it kinds of turns us off and goes to prove the modesty point. I wear very tight jammers, square cuts and briefs depending on how I feel. Here in Vermont we all get and stay in shorts of some kind as long as we can-it's just comfortable to do so. The main point is that speedos are what should be worn while vigorously doing laps no one is looking at your suit but they know a "good swimmer" when they see one and that's great. If you don't want to tell a guy how great he looks in his brief suit at least tell him that he looks like a great swimmer
