bikini/Speedo (men's swimwear)
5
The disparity between men's and women's swimwear in America is so vast it is ridiculous. Men are expected to swim in what is actually knee length pants, some even with cargo pockets and women's are about three square inches from being nude. The anti-speedo comments are just plain absurd. The ladies with the "mystery" comment....when a man is wet, especially in water temperature well below body temperature, you're not going to learn anything anyway. The "gay" comment is really old. So homosexual men are the only males allowed to swim comfortably? I suppose with that logic women who wear Levi's we can automatically assume are lesbian? And for the comments made about the men who are not in perfect physical form, okay now how about all the women out there in their spandex suits with the exposed gluteus maximus that resembles two bags of cottage cheese hanging out? We're talking about women of all ages, all sizes and shapes wearing spandex panty and bra sets - no ill comments. However a man wears a brief swimsuit and we get all kinds of rude remarks, even when his swimsuit still uses more material than some of womens two pieces. I don't think the present generations of Americans will ever get a grip and accept that men should wear a swimsuit to the beach or the pool...not his pants. Hopefully the next generation will understand clear logic.
