Question

On beaches why do girls wear skimpy & tight bikinis and guys wear long and loose shorts?

Answer 1

Most guys think that looking like a "gangbanger" with shorts past their knees is cool. Most do not have intestinal or testicular fortitude to wear a brief to the beach like the rest of the world does. In Europe, briefs are law for men. In America, most men are prudes when it comes to swimwear.

Answer 2

men are uptight

women are not

simple as that.

however, all my swimsuits are one piece so call me miss uptight lol

I enjoy showing off my body though.

Not all guys like to show their legs.

Answer 3

Men wear speedos... *shudders*

Answer 4

It does seem rather odd, doesn't it!  No matter how long - or short - men wear their swimsuits what needs to be covered is by a simple speedo/brief.  I've never heard someone complain about seeing a man's legs yet our swimwear keeps getting longer.  Just doesn't make sense.  I think women should try and wear the long boardies then they may understand why briefs are so practical and the preference for some men.  In spite of the "eww's" proclaimed, I've seen several women gawk at pictures of guys in speedos.  I guess it is more appealing for them when it is anonymous and not present.  Sounds like a double standard to me.

Answer 5

Some to show and some to hide :-)

Answer 6

To cause excitement.

To conceal it.

Answer 7

well that's easy we look better than guys oh yes and we are smarter we know guys LOVE to WATCH US

Answer 8

Because women have more to show than men. Would you rather see a woman in a bikini or a man in a speedo?

Answer 9

Because that is what the style is at the moment.  The 'geek' for guys is what's coming in now, just look around you :)  plus according to the color council (yes there is one and you have to pay to be a part of it) grey and black are going to be the new 'in' colors for the next 6 months or so.

I thought you'd like to know :P.

Answer 10

The reason for the long and loose shorts is because of the skimpy and tight bikinis!
