Re: is it OK for women to wear Speedos at the beach too ...
My first experience wearing a racing suit was when I was swimming on a summer league team as a kid. I will show my age here by confessing these were the nylon, scoop-back suits with the panel in front. My mother was aghast that they did not have built-in bras, and insisted on buying me one like she would buy for herself, with the foam-rubber bra. It made me look like Jayne Mansfield. Plus, they soaked up water to the point you could actually feel the increased drag. I was more embarrassed to wear the suit with the bra than one without (it just wasn't appropriate for the setting), so I went in the bathroom with my mom's sewing scissors, cut the bra out, and deposited it in the trash in the bathroom. The next evening we had the preacher over for dinner, and as everyone was sitting around with coffee and dessert, here came the family dog trotting out with the bra from my swimsuit in his mouth!
Those Speedos are going to embarrass you one way or the other!
