Great News! " Male Stars Feel the Need for Speedos"
While board shorts have long been most men's swimwear of choice, lately everyone from musicians to movie stars and even athletes, have been throwing modesty to the wind and flaunting their stuff in variations of the classic banana hammock.

...

English soccer stud David Beckham causes a commotion everywhere he goes. And by the looks of the metrosexual poster boy in his skimpy bathing suit this was no exception. David's speedo gives new meaning to the term "Bend It Like Beckham."


more - with pics!

1. You've made my morning!
Every guy who can wear a Speedo ought to. Flaunt that package! Still haven't quite made up my mind about thongs tho. Even I'm a little weirded out when I see a guy in one of those things.

3. I've worn one once
I have the body so it didn't feel too awkuard but god damn was it more comfortable than those long damn sopping wet board shorts. It made me feel self concious as I was the odd man out at the beach, kinda felt like "that guy" so the increased physical comfort came short of beating out the increased physcological discomfort and I haven't worn one since.

4. I have two of pairs
I wear them in Mexico, and in Japan where they never went out of style. I think I look OK in them and they ARE a lot more comfortable but I'm usually too shy to wear them here. Of course if everyone was wearing them it would be different.
