Why are male bathing suits getting uglier every year?


Question:I've been on a swim team since I was in middle school 10 years ago. Back then, I would see on swim meets nearly 200 guys in speedos on the same place competing. Today, you see guys competing in TRUNKS. I see everyone on the swim team training either in trunks or jammers. American's hate for the speedo has gotten so bad even swimmers feel bad about wearing them. This year, the surfer trunks guys were not only got bigger, they are really think, probably so no part of the male body could possibly bulge up. A lot of guys are wearing those swim shirts. Guys now even feel weird about being shirtless. The jammers this season, I've checked Speedo, Adidas, TYR are now all black or blue. Jammers just some years ago at least had some patterns and had differents colors. Today they are boring as they could possibly be.
I lot of guys are wearing swim shirts with big thick surfer trunks to the pool. Why is society trying to make a man feel ashamed
of his body?

Where can I find cheap swimwear like roxy, hurley, oneill, etc.?

It sounds as if you assume that everyone wants to see every thing that a man has. Maybe society has just figured out that modesty can be alot more alluring that baring it all. Speedos have always disgusted me. Regardless of the man's body fitness, those tight and tiny, less than underwear things cause men to have weird bulges that don't even look human.

Gentlemen, is speedoes the best type for diving?

I'm not sure where in the world you are coming from, but in my local meets, i've seen plenty of jammers but never any trunks at the meets. I've also seen a fair share of speedos. If you are looking for something a bit more modest at least for practice they have what are called "drag suits" that are basically baggy speedos, but they are made of a much more durable material than a regular speedo, allowing them to last longer in the chlorine water.
