Now that summer is around the corner, I would like to ask a question about fashion. Why most men, especially straight men, prefer long-board shorts and usually dislike shorter swimsuits, no speedos, just shorter swimsuits overall?
I am mostly talking about in the US, Canada maybe the UK as well. Before the 90s, swimsuits were shorter and then it became trendy to wear super long shorts, which are very impractical from a swimmer standpoint. I understand that's a preference, but when being asked to wear something shorter, some guys just hate any short or swimsuit that shows too much skin, as if showing some thigh is a no-no, and they react as if it was inappropriate, ridiculous, or call it "gay". I'm genuinely curious.
