I'd settle for people at least paying lip service to the idea of washing their crevices out before getting in the pool. To do that properly you're going to have to get nekkid... like they do in Sweden.
UK, lots of dry people getting in the pool, clagnuts, ball sweat, smeg, fanny batter and everything in between all just biding its time to flood into your panting open mouth... a veritable arsehole bisque.
I was too English to swim anywhere in the Mairie De Paris... hygiene was a real important factor - compulsory swim caps etc, which I did not anticipate needing thanks to the UK system.
