Hi Ms. Brandy thank you as well for your kind input. This forum is helpful and yes Anita is quite the communicator! Yes she did bring levity to the  subject with her (intended) pun. Your right  Ms.  Brandy now that its settled I agree the humor  of  it outweighs the seriousness. As you may have read I am not saying anything to him  about it. I agree it would bring embarrassment to him and possibly damage the nice neighborly relationship we have. He was swimming yesterday  wearing dark swim shorts that hes worn before so maybe he even realized  it later on that the beige shorts failed (as Ms. Anita stated). It is unacceptable that a garment made for swimming would become that sheer when wet  regardless of the color his neither his privates  nor his  pubic hair should  be visible thru the  material. Right? Also as Ms. Anita said which I copied from her last post – “how could you possibly not see that… it’s quite interesting, isn’t it: no matter how older we get, we still cringe the same way when we see certain things, cringe with a  mixture of disgust and .. some curiosity perhaps, or what do you call it.. the appeal of the taboo, or the appeal of the other side of shame.”  Yes indeed I  cannot “un-see” what I accidentally saw unintentionally  so  I have to get past the guilty feeling that I practically know how he looks like naked…although I didn’t exactly see him naked…but I invaded his personal privacy…if that makes any sense?  Im 67  hes 51 I suppose I took a maternal or  older sister approach to  this but it  is over and have to accept  it.
