What do posters think? Is it better to date or marry another swimmer than a non-swimming athlete or non-athlete? Does it lead to discord or harmony? Too much couple competition? Or more understanding when you want to go to practice or meets all the time? Is swimcest the best?
I notice Cruise married a swimmer ... and we know about Muppet ...

I was looking around at the posts as of late....and in great risk of looking like a heartless b*tch, though please PLEASE let me assure that is not my intention in any way shape or form....it seems like the complaint about non-swimming related threads is biased.
People have posted about family medical issues or personal tradegies (which are horrible to have to go through and it's incredible the support that is given), but when these are posted no one makes a fuss about them not being swimming related. However, when a few people want to try and have a little fun and lighten things up a bit, they are labeled as hi-jackers and ruining the content of the forum. If non-swimming related things are to not be tolerated, it should be for everything rather than a double standard.
Again, I'm not attacking the people who have posted such things, they are terrible tradgies and incredible experiences and my thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved.
