Sounds like someone wishes he was a disproportional French goon.

And big shoulders are inevitable if you swim. My shoulders got wider when I swam.

Yup.

There was member of the women's team on What Not to Wear who was having a heck of a time finding tops that fit correctly because of her shoulders.

Like I said, I know they're all freaks. But if you'd seen the wider shot of the first one I posted, he's stands out even among that crowd as an uber freak.

Yeah, I know. I'm not arguing. I do think he's kinda hot, too.

It was funny, as a kid I was on two swim teams and practiced everyday. Then one day my friend said, 'Hey, your shoulders are big!' And I looked in the mirror and saw that she was right. Didn't even notice or think about it.

Watching the swimming made me want to get back to swimming.

When I was swimming regularly what freaked me out was the muscle at the front of my armpit that got really big really fast. I felt like I was sprouting wings or something.

I hated the butterfly stroke. Couldn't do it to save my life. But I was really good doing the backstroke and freestyle. The breast stroke bored me. It felt like I wasn't moving fast enough for all the effort put into it...

And that is when you knew you were gay.

I also figured it out when I was not able to get out of the water when the buff guy swimmers were using the outside showers in their Speedos.

I can imagine. Also, without perfect alignment of your "rudder" you'd end up swimming in circles.

Exactly. Good thing for the lane lines.
