As for telling someone their suit is getting ... um ... transparent... maybe the best thing is simply to tell them.
Stop me if you've heard these before...
Once as I was walking on the pool deck to the showers a high school boy saw me and his eyes bugged out staring at my chest and his jaw banged against his sternum. Probably scorched his retinas. I got the message ...
We had one Masters swimmer doing backstroke in her daughter's faded out yellow suit. The funniest thing was when she saw me on the deck and started waving "hi" while exposing herself. A male age group coach's remark was "Yeah, we all noticed that right away but I'm not sayin' nuthing." A female coach nicely clued her in.
Another time a male Masters guy got out during practice to use the bathroom and his suit completely tore down the back seam. He didn't notice in the lockerroom. One of the women in my group discretely told him when he came back on deck, "HEY !! RANDY !! Your suit's completely ripped out in the butt". Great fun for all.
