JHB, you're kind of right. Which might end up bad for poor JT's fan fair.

I thought he was being sarcastic.

Ummm....how 'bout swimsuit B on model A.

I go for board shorts on guys. Speedos are for athletes, professional ones.

And in case you're wondering, CK boxer briefs. Black.

And you should have added choice C: The Borat Suit http://www.gadgetshop.com/media/gadg...ge1/322586.jpg

I definately go for A. Even if B was on an attractive man it just looks wrong.

Cycling shorts win. Sign of a true athlete.

Neither, actually. If I had to choose, it would be choice A. I think shorts on a man should be at least a tiny bit above the knee...unless vacationing in Europe or swimming in the Olympics. Haha. But whatever, I'm not that picky. If it looks good on them, than I'm not going to complain.

I've got no problem with the cut of the shorts in A. I just don't like the color. I have no problem with Italian or American cut suits but I wouldn't buy or wear one in the color orange. So, it's not the architecture of the shorts but the chromatic fashion I don't care for.

But be it the architectural cut of a clothing or the coloring of the material I'm sure what one likes or not, is a combination of personal tastes and inherited regional and cultural appreciation on a parochial level.

In Brazil there is no issue of men in bikini swim briefs - almost all of them wear it. Brazilian women like bikinis swim wear on themselves and on their men. It's a cultural thing. The metropolis of Salvador or Rio is likely where I will end up eventually anyways. Some how I was born in and ended up in Wisconsin but the reality is I'm tropical in culture. Rich, saucy foods, heat, rhythm,and passion, and the laid back atmosphere of greeting the rise of the sun and giving goodbyes at its decent is what I was meant for. Some people are women trapped in men's bodies, I'm tropical trapped in the arctic.

Culture and maybe even climate shapes or at least influences peoples fashions I think? The two men at the forefront have bikini briefs donned.

Black guys can look damn delicious in orange. But they're really the only guys who can pull it off well.
