Where is Poirier Pool? Is it in the states?

D67

Near Vancouver, BC. Where there is a fantastic rec center in every neighborhood. Finest aquatic centers I've ever seen, a dozen within half an hour of my hotel. i love it here.

Well last night's swim at City Center Aquatics was very nice, it was very crowded in the leisure lanes and hot tub. The five lap swim lanes only had about three to four swimmers each except the fastest one which was just myself and another fellow.
As the pool is a 50 meter with a center bulkhead dividing a 25 yard shallow pool from the deep end, that left room for a water polo game going on, it seemed to be a big deal. There were a lot of spectators on deck all around it.
As for Speedo count there was myself and the guy I swam with, another in the next lane, and an older fellow with a huge gut waddling around. Not a pretty picture. Otherwise there was all the water polo players of course.
As for non swimmers and kiddie pool waders and hot tubbers there must have been a hundred of them in the standard board shorts which really don't hide the fact that most of the wearers are in no better shape than old Mr. Not Pretty Picture, lol.
I had no complaints of indecency directed at me, the lifeguards did not once blow the whistle at me and order me to put on something more appropriate. So I conclude this report by saying that particular public swimming location is Speedo friendly, just like every other pool I have ever been to.

I guess you really liked the experience last night since it got posted twice...lol

Well i know this is the speedo board but my last swim was in a neck to knee racer back suit and had no issues with other swimmers or pool staff.

I've been reading the onepieceswim forums recently and don't understand the fear of swimming in a neck-to-knee suit...it's basically a triathlon suit (trisuit). There should be NO stigma attached to it.

As far as wearing a woman's one-piece...that I don't think I could pull off where I live now. Maybe if I changed pools and told them it was to cover my scars...I dunno. But I've been swimming in a 2" Aussiebum at my regular pool, so can't really use that excuse here. :P

You're probably more likely to get reprimanded for not wearing a brief (or "speedo") than for wearing one while swimming laps. Many European pools forbid shorts. In North America, the only time I've heard about people getting in trouble are when they wear something that is obviously meant to be provocative, like an unlined white suit that turns transparent when it's wet, they act inappropriately, or they go somewhere that expressly forbibs briefs (and often bikinis for women).

There are incidents, like this one, where people get in trouble and claim that an establishment is being sexist, but there's usually more to the story. In the previous link, those look like shorts, not a swimsuit, and probably turned see through.

There are cases where people are asked to change for no legitimate reason, but these seem to be rare.

They were not speedos.
They looked like cotton underwear the way they are constructed although they had some kind of draw cord.

Maybe he was kicked out for bad taste because whatever it is, swimsuit or cotton underwear, it's ugly...lol

I recently bought a black HOM micro-brief which only has 1.5 inch sides, and I went swimming in my local pool today without any problems at all. Actually, have you noticed that swim briefs look bigger in water when viewed from outside? Must be refraction.

Anyway, I seem to have a mental hang-up with light or bright colours. I acquired the same HOM suit in magenta a week before, but I don't feel confident in wearing it. Just seems too conspicuous. So for me 'inappropriate' is wearing something too bright. I would be more at ease wearing a black micro brief, than say bright pink square cuts.

Bede,

You posted a picture of yourself in the magenta HOM brief and you looked great in it. You wouldn't be at all conspicuous. As a matter of fact, I think folks would think, "that guy really is confident wearing a magenta bikini." Try it once and see how it feels and once you get into the water, it won't matter to you.

not exactly the same but.

That blue Seobean suit is very nice looking, but I would prefer if it were lower on the hips and lower cut.

Wore a N2N University brief to pool under drag suit. When I got to the pool I dropped the suit, stretched and jumped in. When I left I did not put the suit back on and walked to the locker room through two crowded pools. That brief is great except for the "penis" pouch which is a little too suggestive!

New Years Resolution
 

On of the gyms I go to has a newsletter. They just sent one out that has exercise suggestions for people getting back into exercise with New Years Resolutions. There's a great one for swimming.

Bring on the speedos. Where is this at?!?!?

I'd say by appropriate it doesnt have anything to do with guys in briefs.

They prolly just want to ban guys in street shorts, or shorts with metal on them, or guy/gals from just swimming in boxers or underwear.

or obviously things that could be transparent or thongs/g strings wouldnt be appropriate for a coed athletic fitness session

i'm sure any typically speedo in a 2 inch side or larger would be perfectly fine as thats standard swimmer gear

That is exactly what it means. Probably they had a problem with people just wearing underwear or some equally non-appropriate clothing to swim in. They have posted a sign that should never need to be posted at a pool or beach. Unfortunately some people don't have the common sense to know what is appropriate at any given situation and have to be reminded.

These look great on the manikin. I wear a similar style.

I push the back coverage to 3/4 or 1/2 at my swim club with the encouragement (and amusement) of the staff. It's a incentive to stay in shape or just to make the effort to show up to do laps. My doctors applaud my efforts as well.

So true? My favorite suit is my N2N University. I agree with your summary; it is a great brief but the pouch does bring on many stares (as well as other N2N models), but never a comment of any kind. Are you going to keep wearing it at the pool?

N2n
 

Yes-but sometime over a Caussie-depedig o time of day. I also wear Uiv. Jammers my favorite collars are green and gold-wish more suits were. With the jammers-because of bubble but I make sure to get wet in the prep shower so that it clings and doesn't show crack .

To Byran
 

Sorry private message would not go-Don't be concerned about "pouch" not any more noticeable than what divers wear!

To me, "inappropriate" is any suit that is see-through when wet, or so formed as to outline the package. Most briefs without a pouch tightly confine the package to a simple protrusion while the pouch suit can give more definition to package components. I wear the Neptune Scepter suits and the Seobean brief with no pouch, both are low hip cut and have had no reaction from other swimmers to either suit. And they feel great..
