why do hot guys wear 3-4 inch speedos?

Whilst protecting the innocence of kids is an important issue I would point out that the word speedo was only used in this thread until jammers were introduced in post#6 - and then tunneling
(for which there is a separate thread on this forum)

Well I guess when we see a championship performance happen by the wearer of a brief suit, your question might be asked of someone who can give a credible answer. Meanwhile the answer to the question whether less is better must be NO, obviously. For competitive swimming, that is. Ogling and drooling is another matter but for all you know some swimmers (or their parents) might not want to have their photos end up in such a discussion as these tend to... LOL ... do we really wonder why speedos aren't as popular as some wish they were? It's hilarious how an athlete's performance is rated by bulge and clarity through lining... In today's tech the most innocent little photo on facebook gets blown up and printed and viewed one handed all over the world.
Thanks for helping me figure this out.

It depends on the suit. Tech suits (they're really expensive) are faster than skin, so more fabric = faster. If not, skin is faster so more skin = faster. It just depends on the suit.

The strict specification led to limited results:

Oh yes, this guy should also explain himself (all at sea I think)

I always like 1/2" less than 1" bikinis. Blue and red pictures clearly explained the reason. They are just looking fine, how they framed the male bodies.

Since I was a kid, recreational swimming, lessons, high school gym classes, I always wore 2", 2-1/2" Speedo type briefs. During the 90's 1/2" bikinis were widely available for purchasing usually by mail. I started collecting them even after 2000's.

My cruise photo above, those type of swimsuits were resembling Japanese fundoshi or styles of the exotic islands in the Pacific where men wore to fishing or dancing. The front coverage cloth slide along, you can control the amount of exposure. I have some interest on them. These type of special swimsuits were easily available from International Male/Undergear catalogs, where they stock specialty swimsuits wore and photographed by handsome male models.

But I don't really look good wearing 1/2" styles. Then came the Sunga/Aussiebum style square cut swimsuits. My point of view, about whether 3" to 4" or boxers or briefs, it got to do with "FASHION". Sunga cuttings are "IN" right now. They are looking great on a men, they are the trend.

Your latest ABs look better at the springs.
LOL - realise , now that I look more carefully , that you had on the old sliding front suit. That brings back memories - never seen in years now.
Will be interesting to see what 2016 does for sunga sales - I think I should buy some company shares in readiness.

Leaving Lussier Hot Springs walking up the sloped path !

Walking up the path no.1 gives you definition

Also found a guy in nice speedos (brand I cannot determine) running, not walking - and from New Zealand which we don't often hear about:

NO, body definition in the world of bodybuilding does not quite count looking further away or closer. I was high in fat content. A lot more work needed to catch up. Also need diets and aerobics.

Before this trip, I had to rush to finish my jobs before leaving.
For this self-guided tour, I knew nothing about the place. I spent most of the time learning the geographic of the areas, planning the routes, made bookings. I missed most of my weight training. So, the time I took the photos were not in my good shape.
