I've been giggling about this all morning! Many of the young swimmers from my pool are attending the BYU swim camps starting this week. One of the young guys who always wears brief (racer) style swim suits told me that he isn't allowed to where them at the camp. I pulled up the info on the camp and the info packet does say "no Speedos or bikini briefs are allowed for male participants". I'm sorry, but jammers are no less revealing than briefs! If anything they are more so - in my opinion. I can understand a modest dress code at BYU, but swimmers are so use to seeing each other in these types of suits. I would love to know the thinking behind this dress code? :lmao:
Wish I could make Portland:doh: I'm already traveling too much this summer and Portland will break the bank.
Kurt I hope you don't think I'm saying BYU policy is wrong or should be changed. I think the people at BYU have every right to make their rules as they see fit. I'm just amused at how the line between what is considered modest and what causes sinful thoughts can be so grey and changeable. Growing up in an LDS family I do understand the LDS point of view. I'm just truely amazed that BYU even has a swim team and holds camps. There is just too much temptation with all those skin tight suits walking and swimming around. I'm sure that there is great deal more sinning going on at other universities and swim camps... beware of the brief (racer) swim suit!!! It is all down hill from there.
Good luck in Portland Kurt!!!
