Swimming: do you know how to swim?

SWIMMING: Do you know how to swim?

[sovetskii13]

I've known since I was very little. I don't enjoy it but it's still a very beneficial skill to learn for safety. You never know when something might happen and you'll be required to swim or stay afloat. If you don't know how then you might drown. So, learn how to swim if you don't know how.

[Sex_Panther]

I can't tread water. I can swim very well due to the length of my limbs and thin body and move through water faster than I realize (often running into the edge of pools) but I cannot tread water for my life. No idea why.

So I can't swim, I guess.

[Asker]

oxymoron

[TadCurious]

Yes, I've been swimming since. . . well I was really young. My dad had this thing about his kids: "They've got to know how to drive a stick shift vehicle, and they have to know how to swim." lol Fortunately I didn't stop with just those 2 skills. :)

[Asker]

oh, no care to enlighten?

[TadCurious]

good lady, what is it you would like me to elaborate on?

[Asker]

Um...You said something about, skills?

[TadCurious]

It wouldn't be good form to enumerate my many and varied skills. lol

[Asker]

Oh well.: (

[SarahP]

Yup! I've been swimming for 30 years. Living on a small island surrounded by water, it's kind of a must in my world... plus I have a pool in my back garden. :)

[Asker]

[MissFabulous]

Yes I do and I love to swim, it's so fun and a great exercise. :)

[Asker]

[Asker]

I think us minorities need to come together and learn how

[bunnahies]

We'll all die together

[TadCurious]

[bunnahies]

The 9 foot pool doesn't agree. It left me down there :(

[Asker]

[bunnahies]

He'd think we're Pretending to drown so he'd smooch us. But we actually drowned hahaaa

[Asker]

[Red_Arrow]

Figured just about everybody could. Hope there are a lot of flotation devices on that liner they go for a cruise on.

[Asker]

nope everyone can't swim

[Red_Arrow]

Of course not everyone, but I figured just about. Guess that comes from a career in the Navy. Everyone had to swim.

[1932ct]

[Asker]

[BalthazarKing]

[douride2]

Grew up on the lake used to live in the water swim like a fish. Not as much now as when I was younger though.

[Asker]

[douride2]

What you can't swim? Come on up north we can teach you. The waters cold though.

[Asker]

SWIMMING: Yes I know how to swim
SWIMMING: Yes I know how to swim

[RedThread]

I can't even imagine not knowing how to swim because I learned when I was so young. I grew up around a lake so it just came with the territory.

[Asker]

yes, it was imperative for you to learn.
Dont make fun of me. I Have the its not enough detail. :P

[RedThread]

I'm just playing :p

[Asker]

[guitar-guy06]

Not much but I can swim in a large pool from one side to the other, I can swim underwater, I haven't been on a pool in like two years so,.,,.,

[Asker]

thanks

[nickstaa]

Yea since I was five. All the schools for young people have pools over here. And you have to learn to swim whether you like it or not lol.

[Asker]

understandable, you are on a island

[biggie90]

Yeah I do. But it would be funner in the hot tub with you.

[Asker]

yea, not enough room in there, and I'm sure there would be better thing to do anyway. ^_^

[biggie90]

better things to do lol!

[Asker]

smh.

[Shyguy_1988]

Yes of course! I don't swim often though, not going to lie.

[Asker]

[Shyguy_1988]

Guess I thought most people no how to swim :O

[Asker]

[NoblesseOblige]

I suck. I would stay alive for a while but eventually drown and die.

[Asker]

[NoblesseOblige]

I can swim but I can't do the breath midstroke thing.

[Asker]
