The sun is out. Your car is packed with sunscreen, towels, and trashy magazines. You’re wearing your favorite pair of shades. It's official. You're ready to hit the beach. Only thing you’re missing — a Speedo. Don’t let every other guy who wears board shorts intimidate you. It’s Speedo season.

Here are six reasons you should rock a Speedo to the beach.

1. Europeans do it. 
And they know what’s up when it comes to fashion.

2. It’s freeing. 
Unless you’re an underwear model, there's no profession where you get to romp around in public wearing something so tiny. Take advantage of it. 

3. It draws attention. 
Who doesn’t like a little attention every now and then?

4. It minimizes tan lines. 
Nothing is worse than an awkward shorts tan -- beautiful bronzed legs and a shiny white butt. Speedos are an easy way to avoid that.

5. It’s sexy. 
And no one can deny that.

6. They come in ridiculous patterns and illustrations. 
There has to be at least one Speedo out there that suits your personality.

Not feeling that you have a Speedo body? Let me help you out. Step one: buy a Speedo. Step two: put on the Speedo. Are you wearing a Speedo? BAM! THERE YOU GO! You have a Speedo body.
