Not just swimming but walking afterwards too. I had a family that was definitely fundie come to the pool I was lifeguarding at one summer. Dad was swimming laps in a t shirt and sweatpants which was pushing it. Mom was in a maxi t shirt dress nearly identical to this one. She walks over to where he’s swimming and I figure she’s just gonna hike it up and sit on the edge with her feet on the water and instead she just straight up hops in fully clothed. The other guard was sitting severely hungover in the guard room so I was tasked with going over and telling her why she was not allowed to get in the pool with a floor length dress on. She gets out without complaining, at which point I learned that cotton stretches when it’s wet, because the dress now had damn near a train that made walking nearly impossible for her.
