I do NOT, NOT mean this in an offensive way. I live in eastern TX now, but lived in Tucson AZ for 10 yrs--and came to really love and appreciate the Hispanic culture. Heck, my first real romantic involvement was with a Hispanic woman, so believe me--I have nothing but love for all people, I mean that.
Simply enough, I have noticed something that I don't understand--at the pool, or even at the lake, Hispanics often don't wear bathing suits like the other people do. I see them swimming all the time with tennis shoes, ballcaps, even blue-jeans on. In fact, some pools in Tucson did have "proper swimming attire only" signs apparently because the pool management saw this as a problem.
I am simply curious--why do they do this? I mean no harm in asking, I think it's no different than (say) asking why rednecks love pickups so much, or why Orientals always end their questions with "no," or why Russians love Vodka so much. Thanks for the tips.
