| Id wear pink knickers and jacket and even a pink mask, if anyone would get me some FIE gear in pink so I could go to comps like that! Wouldnt want to pay for it though...Pink rocks on guys and girls andI wouldnt have a problem of wearing pink stuff in a comp. Id hve more problems wearing something neon green or so.

You may wear almost anything you fancy under your jacket, as long as this includes a plastron (when required).

| First off, the sailors thread is more along the lines of high performance sail craft, and secondly I'm not actually considering wearing pink spandex.  |

| I bet, if you've got the body for a pink spandex suit, you'd win some points through distraction techniques. Just imagine, every form, every muscle, every turn of your body outlined and available for examination while on the

Who'd be looking at the sword in your hand?  |
