Question

What is the difference between a water polo suit and a regular swimming brief?

Answer 1

Many male polo players wear two suits (briefs) instead of one.    Doing so adds a little protection from being kicked or grabbed in the gonads by an opposing player.

Girls wear a rather snug and somewhat elastic suit to hold their b*****s in which seems to make them less susceptible to injury.

Some male suits are also made of the heavier elastic material.
