Does your community pool have a dress code?

Oh do tell, what pool is this?

I was going to say yes, because we have found that t shirts and cutoffs leave fibers that clog the filter, so the rule is only clothes that are designed for the pool.

But we don’t police the cut of the suit.

I did Ozempic (it’s great, highly recommend) but I’m still overweight and wearing a lands end tankini. And a rash guard, more often than not. Nobody in my minivan is competent to put sunscreen on my back.

lol yeah I agree. There’s a few try hard moms at my friend’s pool who dress like that. Leave it to the youths, please!

Short shorts, crop tops, and cheeky bathing suits appall her. Since hitting puberty at age 10 she would rather cover it all up.

I try to remind myself it’s so great these kids have such body confidence - but I also find the suits distracting. And I’m not sexualizing anybody - just noticing the girls are nearly naked.

Funny how the men aren’t wearing banana hammocks with their checks hanging out.

Isn't that interesting?

I can’t believe people are still trying to police women’s bodies in the US in 2024….oh wait….

Something that struck me as—well I was going to write odd but really it’s just different culture— is that in a lot of European countries “swimming briefs” (like speedos and jammers) are way more common in casual settings. Common amongst all ages.

Like, here in the U.S. it’s a bit odd to see guys wearing those in a situation other than competitive swimming. Not so in Europe.

In fact, in France public pools are required by law to enforce a “swimming briefs only” dress code. No trunks, board shorts, etc. Just swimming briefs allowed. You will get called out on it and forced to purchase a swim briefs on location if you want to continue to swim.
