Ben by Daniel Shelton for September 09, 2023

Actually, I’d say No speedo. PERIOD!

Odd. They started out as Bermuda shorts…

A good rule in Ben’s case.

Just because Walmart has something i your size doesn’t mean you should get it.

My friends all call me “Speedo” but my real name is Mr. Ben

Funny how women show more and more of their bodies (even at 50+ they wear thongs showing their entire butts yet men are supposed to cover up the bulge as much as possible.) Our present zeitgeist wants men to be basically castrated. Sad,sad, sad.

You want him to take it off?

Oh Crude – now that I’ve seen it, I can’t UNSEE it. Oh Crude!

You straight boys are soooo touchy!

Rule to be enforced with religious zeal. If there’s no room to keep your ID tucked away (to check your age)… tooooo small.

Oh my, thank you Dan Shelton! This really is so true! Just as bad? Women over 60 in bikinis!

I know you’re an older man but maybe it’s time to start hitting Planet Fitness, Ben.

Were they Speedos before he gained weight?

Ugh……….

I’m a lap swimmer, and about half of the retired guys I swim with wear Speedo’s. Trunks for me, but I don’t care what the others wear. In the locker room, same ration for whitey-tighties versus boxers (me).

No bikinis for overweight women.

That is a GOOD rule! Lol!

Fat Shaming! I thought that was a no no! You go Ben!

I don’t think that started out to be a speedo, it just looks that way on him.

The lifeguard must not have spent much time on the beaches of Europe…

Why are speedos such a no go in the US? When I grew up (in Europe) it was normal swimwear for men and it still is for many of them. And as long as we are on strange ideas, why are little girls now wearing a top piece or a one piece? There’s nothing to hide.

I wonder if Olivia knows he even owns one

didn’t need to see that today

Lookes a size too small from what I see. lol

Body-shaming is so wrong, whether it is men in a Speedo-style suit, or “over 60 women in a bikini”.

Shame on all those who make such inappropriate comments.

One never knows if the swimsuit wearer has shed a significant amount of weight, and is “celebrating” their new “in-progress” body by what they wear when they exercise at the beach or at the pool, as part of their ongoing efforts to change their body.

P.S. to the comment about swimwear for pre-pubescent girls, Google-search “Gwen Jacobs top-free” — for decades, women in Canada have equal rights to be top-free as men.

The waters cold, must of shunk

No stupid obliviots on lifeguard duty
