"Suit Technology" is just one form of mechanically assisted swimming, so in addition to suits, why not allow flippers, webbed gloves, and snorkels?

Or is suit technology just an excuse to have men cover their upper legs - especially in swimming meets that are held in public view?

Furthermore, women swimmers don't wear jammers and their legs are fully exposed as they have been for over 60 years.

I'm not buying the "Faster" excuse and jammers are just a streamlined version of knee length board shorts that men always wear in public and they are the equivalent of "Leg Veils" or a "Male Burqua".
