Boys' Synchronised Swimming.

monster · 08-29-2011, 08:01 PM

Why the hell not? Both my boys are participating in routines at our pool's closing day show. Thor was the first male synchro swimmer in his solo event a few years back when he just didn't care, but this year we have 5 boys and they're not taking the mickey. I say go boys! I hope to post vids.

Eh? How can ... nevermind.

Regardless of gender I think synchro swimming is a bit silly, but if they like it, go for it.

I knew one woman who was into synchronised swimming. She told me they once had a guy in the club but he was only there because he was a bit kinky and wanted to wear women's swimsuits.

Re: how can... I know. But he was the best...... and so cute at 7 with no performance anxiety issues and actually very good....

It's very silly (imo), although they actually need an amazing level of fitness to do it well -more than polo players, even. But it's just a fun post-swim-season thing. Hebe's doing it too and she's a serious swimmer. I posted this because when I googled it, I was amazed by all the outrage about the possibility -there are male ballet dancers, figure skaters, divers..... and some of them aren't gay.
