Self Evident Truths

I am old enough now, that I try not to judge other people's bodies. Keeping track of my ever expanding form is hard enough. Bathing suit weather has just arrived and with it I bring out my baggy sufer shorts. No I do not own a pair of speedos. Any woman will tell you, 99% of males over the age of 12 don't need to wear a speedo to the beach. On the flip side, rarely do I see a woman in a bikini who I think should be wearing one. Summer has long been a season of unsightly sights, over weight men in speedos and love handled women in bikinis. I still think people look better in winter under a extra layer of wool
In most of Europe and South America no one cares what you wear to the beach or if you wear anything at all. Most women don't wear tops and no one seems to pay any attention, but I guess that is not always a pretty sight. But this is America where politicians protect us from ourselves. Democracy is not always pretty either. I'll just stick with my baggy surfer shorts till I build my own private hot tub then I won't wear anything at all.

    I so agree with you on the bathing suit wear !! The people that were the "skimmpy" ones should not even wear them at all !! What are they thinking. In other countries, they go toples and no one even looks at them, here everyone just stares at everything !!!
