Fine, but you are arguing a lost cause. The suits have been banned already by FINA, USA-S, NCAA and high school. Why shouldn't masters follow? Because of creaky knees, skin cancer, and beer guts? Or because "it's just masters" so it doesn't matter?
In other words, we can't handle "naked" swimming like the rest of the world. How is that not demeaning to us?
Exactly. However, don't use the word "handle" because most forumites can "handle" anything that we encounter in life and will take exception. We prefer to say that we just like to go fast and not go backwards from a suit/technology perspective.
