Women's Locker Room

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.

    I typically sandbag with an NT to protest the discrimination against fly-backers that exists. Never any rest between our events, and it sucks. I don't mind swimming with tall fast men in LCM. Sometimes not in SCM either. But this is my heat of the 100 back this weekend, and I am less than thrilled with it: 1 Stevenson, Chris M45 VMST 59.08 2 Britt, Clay M48 ANCM 1:02.00 3 Elshafei, Emad M43 TERR 1:04.84 4 Edson, Edward M28 TERR 1:07.00 5 Elliott, John M39 GERM 1:08.00 6 Jones, Andrew M45 NBAC 1:08.00 7 Kress, Jay M46 FXCM 1:13.00 8 Livingston, Leslie W48 GMUP 1:14.00 Also, of note, there is major female sandabagging going on as the female WR holder in your age group, Ahelee, is seeded at 1:17 when she swam a 1:09 at this meet last year ... So I get drowned by men while she has calm water for another record attempt. Hmm..... I seeded myself at the time I swam at this meet last year. Oh crap--It's an 8 lane pool?
