  • OK, so what if it is a girlie sport (which it isn't btw)? You pals might be making fun of you but, trust me, spending 2-4 hours a day with in shape girls you own age beats all other HS sports and they are jealous. Plus, come summer, when you are at the beach or pool and not in a speedo, the young ladies will laugh at your doogie paddle pals and revel in your smoothness in the H20.
