Speedo Question?

Question

For guys ages 10-16, if you wear a speedo, or want to, I just want your thoughts on it.

If you wear a speedo in public, how do you get the courage to do so? I'm 14 and I own a speedo that I wear underneath my boardies, because I like speedos, but I'm too embarrassed to wear them out.

I hate boardies, and I'm not ashamed of my body, and I don't care what strangers think, because I've worn them in a hotel pool. It's my friends reactions that I'm worried about.

Answer 1

I am a swimmer and I spend at least 4 hours a day in speedos,

lots of people from school and my friends come to watch me swim and honestly some of them think speedos aren't really that good looking, but if they see you confidently wearing them they look a whole lot better...

there is nothing worse than someone being self-conscious about what they are wearing...

so just wear them proudly and who knows...you might even start a trend for your friends to start wearing speedos...

Also if you are really worried, perhaps you could get another one of your good friends to wear speedos aswell, that could help...

Answer 2

Wear the speedo.  It doesn't matter what your friends say, but what you feel comfortable wearing.  I swim competitively on a team and all the guys wear speedos.  It is something they all find cool.  Find the confidence to wear them.

Answer 3

Hey do whatever you want. Your friends probably will give you c**p about it, but I'm sure you can take it. Its not like they will stop being friends with you. If they do they weren't your friends to start with. I knew this guy in school in the swim team that actually shaved his legs because he thought it made him faster! He sure got a lot of grief, but he didn't care.

Answer 4

make them think you do it as a joke, laugh about it....make a grand entrance in your s**y speedo! just put somethin in there if it makes ur junk look small ;]

Answer 5

Yea, They will think your g*y or something. I will tell you one thing.......very few women (in your case girls) like them and most think they are g*y. I guess the package is out there for all to see.

Answer 6

You wear your speedo, no matter what they would think or say about it. Speedos are designed primarily for swimming not showing your body.  Ignore them if they make a big (very big) fuss. Even straight guys wear speedos.

Answer 7

Don't worry about what the fashion police say, speedos are not g*y. I wear mine to the beach and pool all the time with my wife and kids. They are much more comfortable than boardshorts and provide a better tan. If you are comfortable, then that is what is important, not the comfort of the others around you, and face it, thats what this is all about. Clothing is just that, something to wear, it says nothing about who you are as a person.

Answer 8

Ahh, the first time is always the most difficult.  Since you wear them under your boardies already, you can "accidently" loose your boardies while swimming or just drop them when you get to the pool and act like it is perfectly normal.  If you are nervous about wearing a speedo/brief, your friends will pick up on that and be more uncomforatable with your choice.  If you come across as confident, they may still be uneasy with the choice, but it won't be that big of a deal.

The other question to wrestle with is, which is more important - your personal comfort or your friends' comfort? At times, I choose not to wear my speedo/brief in front of my friends because they don't like them.  They know I swim and that I wear one, but would prefer not to see me in it ("TMI" they say).  I respect my friends enough to keep the boardies on so I can enjoy their company.

I get to wear it enough swimming laps 5 days a week and in our backyard that opportunities away from home tend to be only at the beach with my wife and children.

Answer 9

Well i'm 18 but, if you really want to just where the speedo's in front of your friends.

How much more brave are you then they.

But just wondering, if your 14 what if you get a *****?
