Unirdna - perfect explanation. Don't think I was ever in denial because I've always readily admitted to having two testicles. As you've detailed - we are who we are and most of what we do is based on or derived from our basic instinct as animals. Now, if a female finds that a given mans instinct in a pool repulsive (and he has genuinely crossed a line) - then I see no reason for that particular female to instinctively retort with whatever means necessary. All's fair in love and war.
Going back to what a lot of people have mentioned throughout this thread - what's the deal with practicing apnea in public swimming pools. I'm relatively new to it all (and loving it) and started when I was away on holiday, in the big blue. Now I'm back home, I've been doing what I can at the pool but am aware of 2 things. Firstly, that most people in there think I'm acting like a bit of a freak/perv (you know deep breathing at the end of the pool before disappearing under water) and...
Secondly, the life guards thinking I'm a complete freak and acting very uneasy around me. Maybe they just hate me or maybe I scare them slightly - I don't know. Either that or they think I think I'm some sort of wide boy trying to impress f*** knows who.
Is this sort of behaviour par for the course or do people take their life guards to one side and explain to them what it is they're trying to achieve by not breathing?
