How odd - no visual of the swimmer in her suit - makes me wonder how revealing it is - i think it even odder they choose a man to speak on behave of the approved swimsuit
So when did young women athletes start running (and swimming) around with their asses hanging out? Looks really uncomfortable for one (a wedgie?) Plus, don't they understand the value in leaving just a little bit to the imagination?
I agree 💯 percent with this message she is a winner!!!! Vote for Trump to stop the men from competing in women's sports!!!! These men cannot compete against real Men cuz will Lose BIG time!!!!
High school swimming has all sorts of special rules that are not part of USA swimming. So are so outdated. This issue of girls swimsuits has come up so many times, as each kid has different body shapes. If the suit is school issued or approved , this rule gets overturned most of the time. Skin suits are typically not used in high school swimming. These take the girls 20-40 MINUTES to put on….. and are outrageous in price …. $400+ Ex official, and father of a collegiate swimmer
Every swimmer wants to take advantage of new swimsuit technology, swimmers have different body shape and some swimming competition spectators are very prude (as seen here 🤦🏻♂️). From your unique point of view, what's the solution?
The honest truth is, the swimsuits are getting too revealing. In the Olympic trials, the swimsuits and the track suits that the girls are wearing our starting to look like G strings with a top on. And the girls that do the floor exercises when they do their tumbles and backflips and all that my gosh, all you see is a little string going up their rear end. what has happened to modesty.? 😩😩😩
AGREED!!! And now a lot of young women and teen girls are starting to wear these types of very revealing suits at "FAMILY- FRIENDLY" environments... and I just don't get that!! It's so inappropriate and disrespectful! We recently took our family to a resort that we've gone to the last 7 years, and this resort has ALWAYS prided itself on being "family-friendly". We couldn't believe the thongs and G-string suits young women were parading around the pools in. It felt like "Disneyland meets Big Al's Strip Club"!! Just so wrong!
Call me old fashioned, I like the V coverage look on the rear...way better than the g string look and the entire cheeks hanging out...that's where they are now.
