You understand we’re allowed to discuss things other than what was contained in the first post? People said what’s the problem with adult themed bathing suits, we’ve explained. Lewdness. People said there’s no reason to be bothered lewdness. We’ve said there are children. You asked if we had witnessed it, we said we had. Now you claim moved goal posts? |
A thong is not an adult-themed bathing suit. It's a bathing suit. Further, it is not lewd by community agreement. Have you witnessed a thong? No doubt. That's not a crime. |
We’re talking about the line of what is appropriate. No one is talking about slightly cheeky bikinis. But since you’re being obstinate, tell us: where is your line? |
If you don’t want to see something, don’t look at it. It’s a big world. Look around. Read a book or a magazine, watch your kids, look at the sky and the birds and the trees, or gaze at your own navel. When I see something I don’t like, I look at something else. Pretty darn simple. |
I don't swim. I have no reason to be at a pool or police others at a pool. |
Swimming ability has nothing to do with this conversation, but I'm glad you acknowledge we have no reason to listen to you. |
I mean good for them? I think thongs are just bathing suits as long as they don’t fall off when you get in the water. Would I feel confused wearing them? No. Do I care if other people do, even if my kids are present? Also no. |
Huh. Is there ANYTHING you think is inappropriate to do at a children's pool or playground? |
Again, not a children’s pool. |
Answer the question! What is inappropriate to do at a pool built for and primarily used by children? |
This whole discussion is in dire need of photos to back up opinions. As much as I’m disgusted by some of these outfits, I think we need some high-def visual evidence to clarify things. |
Totally, not all thongs are the same. There are some that maybe show some more cheek but aren't gratuitously sexual. Others are. |
I'm not sure what you mean. Can you post some pictures? Particularly of the second category? |

Yes, my MoCo pool has a very strict dress code which was approved by the board. Fortunately our pool manager April conducts an inspection which all pool guests must go through prior to entering. Under no circumstances can there be more than 35% of the buttocks exposed. Furthermore, any visible outline of genitalia is strictly forbidden. That rules out most speedos for men. The code was enacted about 8 years ago and the vibe has improved tremendously. The pool is now a safe space for men, women and children to enjoy in harmony without any overt sexual pretenses.
