Even I’m Not THAT Crazy

OK, I’ve got the local Pride Edition of the local rag here, and they have six sexy men’s swimsuits pictured for an article on “Showing Some Skin” for the summer. Two of the suits are square cut, so I ignore them. (he he) the other four are Speedo style. One of them, made by L.A.S.C, is listed at $32. Not really that bad considering the market place. I mean, Speedos are all really over priced when you think of it. They are made of very little material and they don’t require much stitching to hold them together. At least they aren’t marked up as much as ties! Oh my god, ties are such a rip off! Fifty – Sixty bucks for a strip of fabric! But that’s the free market, and supply and demand. Most men need ties, so we gotta pay for them. Most men need Speedos, but alas, they don’t buy them, so the swimsuits are marketed to a special crowd – serious swimmers and, well, people like us. We tend to pay whatever it takes because we’ve got to have it – and that brings me back to the other three suits in the magazine. DSQUARED = $205! Dolce & Cabana = $140! DSQUARED = $240! Even if I had money to burn, I would never ever... Oh my God! I could buy 5, 6, 7 other suits for those amounts. Hmm, maybe I’ll go shopping right now.
