being called a sissy because I dive dry

[Iceguy4]

Ya know...I'm getting a lil tired of being called a sissy because I dive dry. I'm woundering if others who dive dry have the same problem. Confortable is the name of the game for me and my pee valve is the bomb!!!

enjoy your drysuit!

Diving is meant to be fun. Being cold isn't fun.

So dive dry.

FWIW i use my drysuit in anything from 2c (35f) to 28c (82f) water.

Dear Sissy,
Name calling can really get a person down and hurt your feelings. We all want to feel good about ourselves and there is nothing wrong with that. If you find the name calling is too much, you may want to re-think owning and using a dry suit. It may not be for you and that is ok. You are an OK person. Say that out loud 10 times. "I am dry and I am OK!" If you are still conflicted, you might want to rethink having a dry suit We all have limitations and there is nothing wrong with finding out who and what we are.

I would encourage you to consider letting go of you drysuit/security blanket. I would be glad to send you my address and promise to give it a good home so that you can feel good about both yourself and your old security suit!

Sincerely,
USBB

I get mocked all the time for my drysuit. You, however, are still a sissy for using your p-valve.
