Hello all of you,
this is my first post here and I wanted some help. The problem is that I can't properly swim the front crawl. I can just a little bit, but I get tired too quickly, I move really slow and I don't know how to properly breathe during front crawl.
But I can swim the back crawl good enough in my opinion and I prefer the back crawl to front crawl much more. But it seems to me that only women swim the back crawl (I'm a 16-year old boy). And is it a shame that I can only swim the back crawl and not front crawl. And because I can't swim the front crawl, I don't want to go to the beach in summer to swim and don't want to go to the swimming pools in winter. My mother always kinda bullies me if I say that I don't want to go to the beach or swimming pools by saying that I can't swim.

I kind of knew all the stuff you wrote there, but what will people think of me if try all that in a public beach or swimming pool?
I agree with all of the great suggestions so far. I used to always hold myself back for fear of what others thought, and as a result, I missed on alot. I finally kicked myself in the butt and realized that I was giving others way too much power over my life. Fast forward a little bit, and I am in the pool swimming laps (still need ALOT of work) and enjoying every minute. As long as you are careful to observe pool etiquette and practice in an area where you are not in the way of faster swimmers, you should be golden. Have fun!
