Hi from Washington, DC

Greetings from Washington, DC. I have been a Speedo-lover since I was 12. My mother gifted me with a few prior to a trip to France. I think the brand was Jantzen but could be wrong, it was some time ago. My father had wore bikinis too so when we hit Cote d'Azur we were fine. I joined swimming and water polo in 7th grade, with regulations Speedos. My school emblem was on the left side of the suit. I had a keen fascination with the Speedo. It produced an instant erection when my hormons hit me later that year. I remember popping a bone after practice when I and my teammates stripped down for showers. Some mates kept their Speedos on, but that didn't stop me from checking them out.

Dad kept his bikini swimwear when we moved West. The new home had a pool, and a neighbor bachelor wore Speedos, too, I noticed. Dad wore his poolside but sported madras trunks at the beach. I kept my Speedos, and have never worn anything else, although I have some TYR, 2xist, AussieBums in the mix. I still swim at least a mile a day, in a Speedo.

Welcome aboard! You have a great history of wearing speedos, I'm envious! I only started wearing them in my early 30s.

Thanks, portseason! I will share with what I have. I have uploaded an Andrew Christian selfie. I don't wear this one too often. Apologies for the poor pic - I will try to provide a better one soon. Not a great photographer as you can see.
