Encouraging Swim Team Fashion
When biking this weekend, I was riding past a local pool early and a team was having its coach talk. Nothing unusual until I saw about a third of the males were wearing speedos, really brief speedos with about 1 inch sides! While the other 2/3s of the males were in boardies or square cuts, it became obvious that the speedos were neither new to the team nor were they taken as unusual by either the males, females, or parents who were also attending the talk. The suits looked good on, but certainly didn't hide the fact that they were on normal developed males.
I was so happy to see the speedo clad guys, a then a speedo wearing guard appeared also! All this in a very traditional conservative upper middle class neighborhood. I hope it represents a growing trend, and since many swim team guys also take guard jobs, I hope they influence many more males, and parents, to give real swimsuits a try.
Anyone else experiencing things like this?
