[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Immigrant here. I’ve noticed that Americans seem to prefer lounging by the pool or sitting out on chairs at the beach, rather than actually swimming in the ocean. If they do go in, it’s just for a short period or to get their feet wet. In my country, we actually go in deep and spend time swimming or just hanging out in the water. Why don’t most Americans do this too? I know most of you (middle class and above) learn to swim so what’s with the Pool/ Sun bathing preference? [/quote] DCUM never lets me down with inane threads and posts. Yours is near the top! Thanks![/quote] This is funny to me because as an immigrant, my family has always remarked how weird it is that so many Americans seem to hate getting in the water. Not sure why people here are getting so defensive about it, it’s just something us immigrants notice, that’s all. [/quote]
