Are body swimsuits this sheer?

They are this sheer. Anything that can create any sort of drag (body hair, skin) in water can reduce speed literally by a split second which can make all the difference in competition. The package on the other hand...

Dear god, if the whole point of such suits is to reduce drag in the water, how much of an impediment must it be to be that well hung?

his long tube snake is aerodynamically folded over his enormous nuts. I don't see a drag issue for that bulge.

He probably uses that big cock bulge as a rudder.

Dated a competitive swimmer for a while:

You laugh, but for some competitive swimmers, the size of their genitals and related bulge is actually a concern. Not sure it makes a difference really, but it def does psychologically, and some guys who are notably well endowed try many different suits to find the one that reduces drag (at least in their mind).

Another factor considered by well endowed competitive swimmers is how they position their genitals in their suits. Some point up, some to the side, some straight down over their balls like the guy in the pic. The suits, esp “paper suits” for big competitions, are so tight they hold everything in a specific unmoveable way that many guys find uncomfortable.

One competitive swimmer I knew was notably short (5’8”) by competitive swimmer standards but was HUGE soft. Like 6 inches soft (and as an American was also cut, so his dick and huge dickhead were VERY obvious in his competition suits). As a smaller guy, he also had to wear smaller suits, which accentuated his massive size. It was a constant problem for him, seriously.

Oddly, well endowed swimmers are often mocked by their competitive swimming brethren. Having a small dick, particularly while soft, is an attribute, and guys with tiny soft penises have the least issues with this problem.

Very informative, thank you r7. I am considering assembling a Blue Ribbon commission to investigate this problem further.

We certainly know how Michael Phelps positioned his pecker.

But really, haven't these swimmers figured out how transvestites do it when they wear swimsuits. It's all about the tuckage. I see no reason for male swimmers to have a bulge at all.

Phelps may not be a classically handsome man, but he is damn hot IMO. That body is flawless. He's nothing but muscle and sinew. And I find his unconventional face rather sexy, especially when he has a nicely cropped beard.

I'm a competitive swimmer and you position your dick up in a race suit like Phelps and to not look like OP. I think when we were really young (middle/high school), nobody liked wearing speedos and we'd wear shorts until it was time to get on the blocks. The bulge really depends on your balls. If you have small, tight balls, your dick curling over them will make your package look bigger in a suit. If you have big low hangers, the it's not as bad.

R19 Woman here. I know a manly man who sits like a cowboy, very wide stance. I can't help looking at his package and it appears to be rather small. So - according to what you're saying - it's the way he's positioning his dick?

by Anonymousreply 20January 5, 2020 2:53 PM

R20 - If you are talking about the dreaded man spreading debate, we have dick and balls so it's really hard to sit with our knees together for a long period of time without our junk getting crushed, regardless of size. In your case it might be the underwear he's wearing - boxer vs. briefs. It's also more about the balls with a wide stance - does he have big balls, low hanging balls? When it's hot, they stick to your legs, etc.

by Anonymousreply 21January 5, 2020 5:20 PM

R20 He's old so I'm assuming he has low hanging balls. He's in great shape, though. I understand about the need for manspread but the way he sits, it's like he's showing off! It's not sloppy manspread. His package is really tight so I'm guessing he's wearing boxers to keep his junk from bulging.

It’s not agape for that. She’s not new to swimming or a gawker. Likely something else has her agape

You do realize you push your balls up inside your body before pulling your dick in the crack? And aside from the little womanly bulge it creates, all that leg movement could cause great injury.

This reminds of me the delicious wrestling thread of yore, "A Singlet so tight you can see his..."

And I HATE the Manspread argument. It's not about the size of a cock. Men's hips are narrow so the kneels fall outward. Women's hips are wider, so their knees fall inward. It's physiological. Women really need to understand this. It actually takes work for a man to sit with his knees together. And when you need to relax, the last thing you want is a workout. Whereas for women this position is much more natural. It's not about airing out some huge set of nuts. Most guys cocks in underwear are sitting up and on their thigh, not sandwiched inbetween your legs, unless your wearing Dad boxer's and your practically sitting on your cock.

These threads are so old, I am sure some of the posters have shuffled off this mortal coil by now. I remember the original picture was of some college wrestler, legs over shoulders, with a white singlet so tight you could see his asshole. It was hot.
