Summer's Coming On in Sydney and Bod's Coming Out!

With hot weather so near, skin's out of hibernation. And my mind is turning particularly to blokes in swim wear - swimmers (Australia general, and US?), bathers (Melbourne-speak), togs (UK?), speedos (generic), trunks (where?), costumes (Sydney-speak) ... whatever.

I guess these must have looked really hot in their time - and some still do:

1898


Early 1900's


1910


1928


1933


1950

1950 - No Comment!


1960 + - The Classic Speedos


1970's - The Thong

Now, the most serious and important development since speedos has been the male equivalent of the wonder bra - padded swimmers which promise variously to lift and separate, and extend and promote, even in very cold water.

Though from all the photos I've seen I'm not so impressed. Maybe I expect too much, literally!

Anyway guys, which of the following nine current styles do you like best?

1 Regular Speedos


2 More Mini Speedos


3 Speedos with External Drawstring Bow


4 Gratuitous Speedos (Just a Very Cute Guy)


5 Boxer Style (Another Very Cute Guy)


6 Boxer Style with External Drawstring Bow


7 Designer Speedos (by Loaded)


8 Speedos with External Cum and Disordered Bow


9 No Speedos


Hope you are focused on the swimmers and not the blokes.

I didn't - and couldn't decide on 3 or 4 ... the guys, not the swimmers!
