The inflatable "trunks" are especially attractive. I started to wonder why they call them "trunks" anyway and found this on Yahoo answers...
"I think it derives from the term 'trunk hose' used in the 16th and 17th centuries to describe the full, baglike breeches worn by men, covering the body from the waist to the middle of the thigh or lower, sometimes having stockings attached in one piece.
Seems a logical derivation to shorten in recent times to 'trunks'?"
Hose? Baglike? Trunk? Seems perfectly logical to me. I then googled "vintage swimwear" and found this. Obviously chicks dig a guy rockin' a pipe in his Jantzens...
This definitely isn't vintage (I don't think) but it somehow seemed worth a post...

I just want to know why a non-swimmer would WANT to go swimming in deep water. Things that make you go hmmm...
You got that right, I tried it when I was in Australia--what an idiot...
And what's up with "Lure HIM away from the pool boy"? What's he doing with the pool boy --skimming?
