When I saw Tom’s post "Swimming without a wetsuit does make you faster… " I thought it said: “Swimming without a swimsuit does make you faster”
And I thought, I’ll bet it does 
(Sorry… I’m in a silly mood today.)
“(Sorry… I’m in a silly mood today.)”
Wouldn’t think so unless you’re referring to those great big, humungous, massive, super sized, gigantic, floppy, start at your navel and end at your knees, homeboy looking shorts that have enough material in them to also substitute as a circus tent. They’re real boat anchors if you’re trying to swim in them. A speedo, especially if it’s a couple of sizes too small, will keep your package a lot more aerodynamic(hydrodynamic???) than if it just flops there acting like a rudder, but for women this wouldn’t be a problem. So maybe the gals swim better nude than the guys.
I’m also in a silly mood!!
Kinda what my first thought to the FISTing in the UK post the other day. Seems I wasn’t alone, surprised more of the Lavender room reg’s never “jumped” on this one.
