Best. News. Ever.

That would be great.
Now I hope that there are some very popular guys who are going to wear them in public, then will "normal" men also start to wear them again.

Great news! It was distressing that Aussie men were abandoning them so it's important that speedos regain prominence again down under.

I know that boardies are by far the most popular swimwear, however there has always been blokes wearing speedos on Australian beaches. Speedos went out of fashion but there's been a lot of us continue wearing them since the 80's. I personally don't think that only fit guys should wear them either, speedos make sense for all men and boys. If I went to the beach with mates who didn't wear them, I'd get a ribbing for the first half hour or so but then everyone got used to me wearing them. And, about the bulge. I've never felt the need to hide that I've got a dick or pubes. Chicks don't hide their breasts after all.

I agree, there are always speedos around in Australia. Beach, pools. Thats all I had as a kid, it was our uniform at school and even now thats all I swim in.

For us trapped in the cold northern states of the USA Sluggo, I am disappointed that even the Aussie's have been overtaken by the loathing boardshorts; however, warmed by those such as you, Sam, Budgy, Dave, and others, that continue to wear in your homeland what is clearly the only appropriate swim wear!
