As the dad of three very accomplished swimmers, I can tell you that (a) those new Speedo body suits are REALLY uncomfortable out of the water, and you can’t wait to get them loosened; (b) you cannot loosen them yourself (or zip them up) a cohort unzips you; (c) Phelps has a very tall hip structure (and virtually no butt) and he still had a bit more to go before he be imitating a plumber; (d) Phelps is anything but an exhibitionist.

With all due respect, I think you find scandal where none really exists.

Just out of curiosity, do you find the gymnastics outfits (particularly form fitting for the women) equally scandalous?

Good thing they don’t hold true to the old Olympic tradition of nude competition ;-)

I hate those new SPEEDOs!! It seems like we are going back to a time when men had to swim in suits like these:

I like the old Speedo style racing suits, myself!!
