If the full body rubber suits do end up getting banned, why should USMS follow their lead on this issue? (i.e. assuming the suits would continue to be manufactured).
Isn't Masters mostly for each individual to pursue what they want and the level they want out of the sport?
If the full body suit is preferred by many USMS participants, why not satisfy the base by keeping it available?
What's really the point of forcing old USMS swimmers out of their girdles if FINA bans them?

Suits aren't "unhealthy;" they're just (very recently) controversial.
Theoretically I agree.
But kicking the tech suit habit was worse for me than kicking caffeine, alcohol, or other vices. It was more depressing perhaps? It felt more psychologically "unhealthy." And I've not successfully completely kicked any of these things 100%.
"Kicking and screaming" along with some crying and "whinning" is right on.
