The Bottom Drawer Forums

I have this with the word "bikini." Not always crazy about the word "speedo" because I've heard it used so many times in a negative context. But when it's used positively I like it. I especially like when it's said to me as "your speedo" or "your bikini."

Funny aside: my mom "caught" me sunbathing ...

Bare it all in a comfortable swim brief that will give you the best tan lines and least bulk under shorts or pants before jumping in the water.


I think this is awesome! She didn't do any of the normal "if you can tolerate it" or "it's not everyone's cup of tea," she just added it to her list ...

I'm realizing that almost all of the pictures I have of myself in a bikini are selfies. I would love to have some pics from the pool or beach that someone else takes. I don't have a SO right now and I've only just started wearing a bikini around family and friends. I'm pretty cautious still about ...

Have you dreamt similar dreams before?

Not as many as I'd like. I sometimes have stressful ones where I get caught in skimpy swimwear by someone who makes fun of but I have had good ones as well.

In the dream, I was ...

Female victims in horror movies are often shown in their underwear so it's not necessarily negative. But I do have a bad feeling on this one that his underwear is supposed to be funny.

So, partly inspired by you all, I went to the local park district pool for a lap swim this weekend and wore a swim brief. It was the first time in a while for me. It was awesome!

I didn't feel self-conscious at all. Kept telling myself, this IS the right thing to wear for what you're doing.

I just ...

Honestly, I don't think too much about it. I figure I'm a normally proportioned male and that my bulge will show in my suit when I put it on and that's just part of it.

I think things might be different if I had friends who went to the beach with me who also wore bikinis. They would advise me or ...

Fun follow up to this at Christmas dinner.

The college roommate was there and she was talking about the trip with my aunt and me. (This wasn't my aunt who went on the trip--though she is my mom's sister.) Then she said just about out of nowhere, "Ian wore a speedo." Like, it wasn't related to ...
