Speedos in France

[Bede735]

I recently had a holiday in the south west of France. I took a couple of Hom Microbriefs (with 1.5 " sides) with me, which being French made seemed appropriate.

There was an indoor pool in the hotel. and I noticed a sign saying 'no shorts or Bermudas allowed), though unfortunately this didn't have the affect of encouraging Speedo wear, as square cuts were worn by the other guys in the pool.

At the beach there were some men in Speedos, but these tended to be older ones. I didn't see any young men wearing them. Of course, the vast majority of women wore bikinis - thus conforming to the modern stereotype of beachwear in Western countries.
