No thongs or bikinis for me, but I wouldn't be caught dead in baggy bathing pants either.

REAL MEN WEAR SPEEDOS.

Why men wear more when they want women to wear less. Not fair. Maybe men nowaday are just bunch of wimps.

Totally Impractical!! What are you trying to hide? Everybody knows what you got. Speedos are far more practical and comfortable in the water. Even if they do show a bulge, so what?! Women wear next to nothing at the beach (no matter how fat or unattractive they are) while men are expected to wear clown pants that keep getting longer each year.

Speaking from a male persepective, I can say that trunks are much more comfortable then a thong or bikini bottom. They are also much more tastefull (usually).

They're kind of dorky, but men have to wear something to swim in, and I'd rather see a man in some decent swim trunks than in a sleazy thong or bikini bottoms.

The best option.

Of course, it depends on the guy, but swim trunks are a LOT cuter than thongs or bikini-type things for guys. In my opinion, at least.
