    Old chewing gum is fresh cut roses compared to what is actually in any public pool, try urine from all those people add baby sh*t to that, any toddler in a pool is going to be pooping his pants, trust me, and diapers do leak, so basically you’re swimming in a **** soup with a side of urine.

    The chlorine will take care of most if not all of that. You should try the swimming class you might find that you really enjoy swimming and it will help you relax (which sounds like something you need to do) :)

    you are overreacting, public pools have been in use for many years

    the water is cleaned filtered and treated to kill germs, probably safer than huggung your friends

    Well think of it this way the number of an individuals personal filth is distributed amongst much water, I would say about 10-20% of the people are actually nasty depending on where you live, but that is why pools will put in lots of chlorine… otherwise your going to have to find a private pool, sorry but that the way it works with the public there are always those type of people out there.

    Yes, they are gross, but “…the chlorine chlorine solution you pour into the water breaks down into many different chemicals, including hypochlorous acid (HOCl) and hypochlorite ion (OCl-). Both kill microorganisms and bacteria by attacking the lipids in the cell walls and destroying the enzymes and structures inside the cell, rendering them oxidized and harmless…”

    You know what REALLY gross? Buffet style restaurants. I mean, how many people WASH THIER HANDS before they approach the buffet?

    They’re nasty. Luckily I’ve always been within a few minutes of an ocean and surrounded by plenty of private backyard pools.
