G'day Guys,

Welcome to the Speedo Forum.

If you are a guest, you can only see a small portion of the forum. Members like posting their speedo selfies so I don't like that to be 100% public. However, joining is free.

If you are a new member, you need to email me your username so I can manually activate your account. This is a pain (for you and me) but it is the only way I've been able to keep the spam bots from ruining the forum. My email address is: DaveEvans@SpeedoFetish.com

This forum is free and I don't allow any advertising (except my own sites), if you would like to donate please click the link above, all donations go towards the hosting and maintenance of the forum for everyone to enjoy.

I hope this isn't the start of a new boardshorts trend:

But sadness is just over the horizon. Queensland surf lifesaving clubs allow Nippers to wear boardshorts in the belief that kids do not want to be seen dead in Speedos. Not only have the youth of Australia turned their backs on an icon but to make matters worse, Speedos have been embraced by that ultimate old fogey, the politician.
