Re: Southern New England event alert: Big Gay Beach Day

It was a lot of fun, despite a fog bank moving in just as it began, everywhere else in the area was mostly cloudless, but it was still warm and the water was great. There were several hundred people there of all stripes, ages, shapes, and sizes, and body types. Someone brought games, and the waves w...

Southern New England event alert: Big Gay Beach Day

Just as an FYI to everyone in Southern New England, Big Gay Beach Day 2026 will be taking place at Horseneck Beach State Reservation in Westport, MA on August 1, 2026, beginning at 10 AM. Caveat: parking for out of state (MA) vehicles is pretty steep ($40 vs $14 for MA registered vehicles(!)), so ca...

Re: Swimwear4men.com

This was my favorite source of speedos, but it seems to have shut down. It changed its url to beach11.com about a year ago, but that doesn't seem to be working either. Does anyone know of any similar sites with such variety?

Re: Straight Men Embracing the Speedo

These articles come out every few years, but usually say nothing new. I'll believe it's a trend when something comes out in the pop culture (TV, movies, photos etc) with a guy wearing a speedo in a non-competitive environment like at a beach or pool party, etc and is not all about a guy wearing a sp...

Re: How Old Were You?

I was 13, summer of 1987. I saw some boys around my age wearing speedos at a popular swimming hole in a river near my family's vacation place in the White Mountains of New Hampshire and thought "I like that". Even though I had seen them before as a kid at our local country club, the beach on the lak...

Re: What was your first experience with a speedo?

In the summer of 1987 I was 13, my family rented a house for a full season in Franconia, New Hampshire that backed up to a meandering river with a sandy bottom (unusual, since most rivers up there are rocky and unnavigable) called the Ham Branch. We had the house for the summer, but would go back an...

Re: Massachusetts Speedo-friendly Beach?

Not beaches, but the Provincetown Inn and Boatslip pools in Provincetown are speedo meccas. Also, in Boston, the rooftop pool at the Colonnade Hotel on Huntington Ave opposite the Prudential Center can be sometimes, but it can be hit or miss. There used to be the "Gay Beach" section of the Charles R...

Re: Old Orchard Beach

Not sure about Old Orchard Beach, though it is convenient if you're going by Amtrak, but just south of there is Ogunquit Beach, which has a huge speedo scene. OOB is still more or less the French-Canadian riviera, and had a reputation in the eighties and nineties for being speedo central, but I'm no...

The pool scene was a little dead but I did manage to make it to the Island House a couple of times to lay out in the sun (and ended up mistakenly walking through the bathhouse in in my sp...

I'm booked to go to Key West from April 16-20 with some friends. We're staying in two groups, at the Island House and at the Chelsea House. I know one is clothing optional (not my cup of tea, nor most of my friends'), and the other isn't. Does anyone have any suggestions as where to hang out, beach/...

Re: Underwear under swimwear?

One should never ever wear underwear under board or other swim shorts, etc. into a pool for sanitary reasons. That's the whole reason speedos are required swimwear at pools in many places: because they are meant only to be swum in and there's less chance of cross contamination because people tend no...

Re: What side width do you prefer?

I think it depends on your build, if your'e slim or skinny, 1" looks good, if you're more built or wider framed, 3+" looks good.

Context is everything. What you can do in a beach town is probably very different from what you can do in a major city. :P

Re: Most comfortable suit

I'll second the HOM briefs. I'm not so into micro cuts myself, but I have a HOM 2.5" suit that wears very well. My second to that are probably Diesel or Puma briefs.

Re: When did speedos come on your radar

In the early 1980s (when speedos were regular swimwear for about 30% of American males of all ages across the spectrum) my family belonged to a swim and tennis club in suburban Boston, where they were fairly common. I was probably 10 or so, and wasn't too keen at all on them, and was afraid that som...

I think I found one like it, it was by Eddie Bauer, not American Eagle. Mine was similar to this one, but I think it had more pink and green in it, I wish I knew what happened to it. Unfortunately this one is probably not quite my size, but I'll contact the seller to see if they have any more. The s...
