The outdoor pool opens on Saturday. As we try to figure out a tactful way to address the sensitive topic of proper swim attire, particularly for the ladies, wed like your input on whats considered modest to see if were all on the same page. Heres what we consider modest at the Y... If you stand if front of the mirror in your underwear and your swimsuit does not cover your underwear, then its probably not modest. Creases and curves should be contained within the fabric of your swimsuit. If your goal is to attract the attention of your male counterparts, then march right back to the locker room for additional coverage. And guys, to level the playing field a bit, Speedos are for lap swimming and the French Riviera. Not sunbathing or going off the diving board. Not many can wear them and wear them well. (Even though you think you can.) In this family environment, consider the image were creating for young girls to follow and young boys to see. OK, your turn. Fire away!
