People that don't know how to swim. Isn't it pathetic?

I don't even remember learning to swim. Just seems like I always knew. It's a basic human survival function so I always assumed like 90% of us can swim. Someone told me the other day like half of Americans can't swim. She was actually proud of not being able to swim.

Swimming and riding a bike are just 2 things everyone should know how to do. If your parents never taught you, you have a shitty family but even so there's no excuse on not learning yourself, most of the motor function and balance is instinctual anyways. Am I the only one who looks down on people who never learned how to swim(and ride a bike too)?

The human body is made up of a lot of water. We literally float without doing shit lol

Not everyone has access to a pool or lives by a beach.

My dad taught me at a young age. Feel bad for people who can't swim. Swimming is one of the funnest things to do as a kid.

I can't swim, so my solution to not drowning? Avoid deep water...pretty easy.

Oh really? You've never been on a boat? Or in a flood zone?
