Boy watch 2000: bathing suit bonanza.(Brief Article)
Feast your eyes on Cosmo's colossal collection of boys in unbelievable beachwear--from the studliest hunks in trunks to the scandalously Speedo'd spazzes.
* You go to the beach with a gaggle of gals and what are you going to do with your time? Read the latest thriller--romance-mystery-self--help guide? Reapply your SPF over and over? Swap get-ahead-at-work strategies? Hell, no! According to a totally informal poll we took in our offices, the number-one activity of chiquitas on the playa is, was, and always will be checking out boys in their beachwear.

Whether or not you're actually reading this shoreside or poolside, you too can be a boy-watching babe as you gaze and gawk along with us at some of the best and worst studs-in-suits we could find. Feel free to park yourself on the Cosmo beach blanket, join us in a rousing chorus of "What is he wearing--panties?" "Can't he leave anything to the imagination?" and "Take it all off, baby-cakes!"--and see if you agree with our men's swimsuit issues. Hey, boys! It's payback time!

* How are we supposed to concentrate on conversation when Mr. ...
