-   -   Would you wear a Speedo? (http://www.ironworksforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=95671)

My wife and I never learned how to swim. We decided that we'd go learn at the "Y" and my poor, misguided wife bought me a Speedo. :eek:
I tried to explain that nobody wears them anymore (except athletes)and that I never did and never would wear one. She says she hates the boxer-style ones and that guys should wear them.
I tried it on and... Well... [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img]
Any thoughts?

Umm... I've never actually worn one, I prefer the boxers [img]smile.gif[/img] . I bet the speedo's wouldn't fall down as much. *cough* [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Speedos! "Ah! My eyes! They burn!" Why anyone came up with this is beyond me. Especially since the wrong people always wear them and it makes it much worse. I wouldn't touch them with a 20-foot pole, myself. Besides, I couldn't imagine them looking good on a thin guy like me. I much prefer the shorts style.

Oh man. I hope I don't have nightmares now.

Heh. The votes so far are about what I would have expected. Wonder what our Australian members would say. I am told they are more common there.

I think more guys look best in boxer style shorts. Not those things that hang down past your knees though. And no light you-can see-through-when-wet colors either.

Arnabas-
You should have had an option (I am male) on question 3 if you want to find out what women think.
When I went to Texas A&M those (male) taking swimming as a PE elective were required to wear speedos. "Oh the pain. My eyes! My eyes!"

Well I hope you do not have to wear them. I care not to see a guys package [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]

Cool poll I give you credit for the nerve to make it. ;)

only if i was being paid

i voted no, on the ladies only because i'm male and it wouldn't let me submit if i didn't vote

Speedo's actually taste pretty good on white bread with some mayonaise. :D

I thought this poll might get a reaction. [img]smile.gif[/img]
This seems to be one of those topics that people feel strongly about. Lol
I think the average guy runs away screaming when presented with a Speedo.
Anyone remember the swimsuit scene in "Somtheing About Mary"?
