Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.
If for no other reason than to benefit swimming, then this qualifies in my book as child abuse. I had always assumed swimmers were immune from strange stuff like this, but I clearly am naive.
Not totally immune, apparently ... The "arms race" is in full swing, and I know quite a few kids that are home schooled for the sole purpose of getting in more swim practices and sleep. However, that is the first AF story I've heard, I must admit.
