This is one thread that I would like to see end... because the problem is stopped. I hate the way it keeps coming back with new reports of problems.
I agree. The machinations of a few Masters swimmers will not change anything about the long-standing issues between adult male coaches and *** or teenage female swimmers. There is often an intense relationship that occasionally crosses the moral line of acceptance, as well as the legal line of statutory rape or sexual harassment. It is a tiny relative number of coaches that succumb to their weakness and the vast majority pay for it with withering scrutiny.
The original poster can lock this thread at any time. Until he does, we can only surmise that he has not had enough of this topic, even though it has nothing to do with Masters swimming directly.
