Pool Etiquette - males and females

Results | Messages
What do you consider good/bad manners in a pool? Males: Answer only the male-directed questions. Females: Answer only the female-directed questions. Other: This is not the poll for you. The two variations of questions are completely identical, I just want to see the difference between the opinions of guys and gals. NOTE: all of these hypothetical questions take place in a pool that has young'uns, elders, teens, and adults all sharing its wondrous atmosphere. Also, the free-response questions are completely optional. If you answer it, specify your gender please.

Mid-life crisis (35-39)
Hopefully a parent by now (40-49)

EVERYONE: Why is/isn't the layer of dirt, oil, and chemicals a topic for concern? There's decent reasoning for either side of this, so as usual feel free to skip if you really want to.

Aaand that's the end. If you have any closing words about this poll, about me, about you, about the 2016 U.S. Presidential Election, or about anything else that may pop into your head in the next few seconds, please hesitate to write it here.
