57-year-old has fashion sense: www.theaustralian.com.au/.../story-e6frg6so-1226117947666 I linked to the Australian article because it calls Speedos budgie smugglers.

  • Will someone explain to me this idea that certain people "have no business wearing" Speedo's or bikinis? Why would anyone take it upon themselves to determine what others should or shouldn't wear? So what if some woman in a bikini is too plump or too old in your opinion - as long as they are wearing what's comfortable for them, how does it hurt you in any way??? I've never understood this concept! As if my eyes are entitled to some kind of protection from things I don't particularly want to see? Well, you bring up a good point; guilty as charged. :blush: It doesn't hurt me at all; you're right about that. Perhaps I was too harsh in saying some people "have no business wearing a Speedo", because you're right; if they are comfortable, that's what counts- for them. So, I will just put it this way now: I would choose not to wear revealing suits (or other clothing) if I felt too overweight and unfit to look good in them.
