PSDave's story is a lot like mine. The local school district has a swimming pool, so we had swim lessons as part of our PE classes from fourth to eighth grade. All students were required to wear suits provided by the pool, which were briefs for the boys. After complaints from some of the students, the eighth grade students were allowed to bring suits from home, with the caveat that girls had to wear one-piece suits. Most of my classmates switched to shorts, but I continued to use the school provided briefs. At the time, I just said that I forgot to get another suit, but really, I liked them.
