"sheer rating" by aussiebum

[afewgoodmen]

I was ordering the classic ice blue 1.5" speedo from the aussiebum website. I later realized that the company has a "sheer rating" from a scale of 1 to 10 as to the transparency of "see thru" of the men's swimwear.

I guess I will have to try them on in the shower and see how I feel about it.

Have you guys come about this sheer rating with other manufacturers of mens swimsuits?
