				Do you wear underwear under your swimsuit?
			 
			
			Well, do you?  Or your kids?

			Depend on what you call swimwear. If standard swimsuit : no underwear If diving suit : yes, i wear a swim suit If alone and under the moon : i swim in the apparel God gave me at birth

			So we have 100% no.   Curious, because I am seeing more and more people wearing undies underneath their swimwear. Admitedly, a proportion on this is young lads appearing to wish to extend the fashion for wearing their pants around their knees and their undies on display to their leisure activities, but that doesn't make it not ew. And ladies, there is no avoiding the vpl in a swimsuit, what are you thinking? STOP IT! Stop it right now! I can't imagine that it's even remotely comfortable. Unless you just put them on clean when you put the swimsuit on, it's not overly hygienic either, but then you'd just never swim at all if you ponder too much about that sort of thing. Street clothes should never be in the pool, and if they must be for some religious/health reason, then they need to be freshly laundered as you change to enter the pool. Those are the guidelines from the health depts we deal with. Maybe they need to specify about undies.

			Last summer at the folk fest, I noticed a trend where young chicks have no concern at all for showing bra strappage. This is not just having two straps over each shoulder, which is now normal, but actually wearing stuff that was previously incompatible with bra straps. Maybe this is a similar thing?  Or just a festy thing.

			Apparently the layering trend has now spead to bikinis too.  They just looked like tropical bag ladies to me, wearing their entire wardrobe to save from carrying it.

			I layer. I wear long johns, then a bathing suit, then a parka, then a beach cover-up. It's uncomfortable, but I'm the coolest bitch at the beach.

			I wear underwear under my swimsuit. With every swimsuit I have, the little built-in underwear lining SCRATCHES MY WEINER. I have to wear something underneath to protect myself. If the swimsuits were made with a non-abrasive liner, I would gladly abstain.
