Speedos at the beach

Any else find that people tend to shy away from a guy in speedos?

Maybe. But they don't shy away from one who is naked (depends on the beach).

I swim in Speedo type briefs and have never felt shunned. After a pool swim I will use the mixed gender sauna and everyone M&F is quite friendly. I see no point in dragging around a couple yards of material when swimming laps. Plus, the brief dries very quickly and I'm on the road a lot.

I wear them at the beach too but I never really expect to meet people if I'm there alone. On the rare occasions I strike up a conversation with a stranger I've never been put off.

Of course at nude beach and gender segregated sauna, no clothes rules.

Speedos are Australian!
At most Aussie beaches, speedos are the norm. Unfortunately, we inherited the American big baggy swimmers a few decades ago! Body shaming at its worst!

I say wear what ever you want. If a speedo filters out those who are judgemental and casting their aspersions, let it. We're likely better off without them.
