text: is wearing speedos so bad? i'm 24, i've been on a swim team since i was 14. i swim 3 kms daily. it's amazing in 10 years i've never worn a pair of speedos. except once 8 years ago in a state competition, i was so nervous about it, the coach made me wear one, it got my trunks back on immediately after i finished, i can't barely remember what was it like.   is it weird someone who's been swimming regularly for 10 years only to have worn a speedo once in his life? people in estonia love em! everywhere we went, people in speedos! there was even a construction site where men were working, wearing speedos, hard hats, tube socks to their knees and construction boots! lol!
