Question

The body gets wet even with bathing suits. CYA But what if the elastic waist band is tight against the body.

Answer

Answered by Aaron Abadi

If there is a part of the body that won't get wet, then it is not OK. Bathing suits are not too tight to a point where the body won't get wet. Did you ever wear a bathing suit, go swimming, take it off later, and see that parts of your body are dry? AA
