Do's & Dont's For A Black Pool Party | Gary Owen

Im the David Hasselhoff for Black People

[@melishaweston6774]

I'm black. In general, this is so true: we don't get in the water. For us women, our hair will get ruined, and it takes forever to redo, and for the fellas, it's all about the "look cool factor"🤣

[@prsguitars42]

LOL!!!......Me? I'd be like, "What'd I do to offend???!!!!"....................

[@helgaioannidis9365]

I'm German. We look white, but we don't have pool parties because we don't have private pools.

[@bb.3844]

for all of you its the my parents never took me to a pool and taught me how to swim lets be real here and stop pretending

[@megapromo3771]

And the fact that blacks cannot swim.

[@calisongbird]

It’s also cuz no one knows how to swim 😄

[@dirtylemon3379]

“I can hear the ocean. We at the ocean” is something that I will always remember. A brilliant philosopher.

This is hilarious! My gym teacher in high school didn’t even get in the water when we had swim class. She walked around the pool in full makeup with her hair done and got mad at me when I almost drown because she thought she was going to have to come in to get me 😂😂😂

[@Mic-Mak]

I don't necessarily think this is a black thing. I had a white PE teacher in high school, and he never got in the water during swim class either. Doesn't have a fear of water or anything like that. He could swim too. I was shocked. To me, it's unacceptable that a swimming teacher doesn't get in the water. It does not inspire confidence for the kids who don't know how to swim.

[@jackhaugh]

I was married to a black woman with 4 black kids. We moved to the beach in Delaware this past summer. After being there for 5 weeks, and not once going to the beach except to go surf fishing twice; once with the 2 boys, the second time with one of the boys, I realized we were NEVER going to go to the beach! We might as well have stayed in Northern VA!

[@blakegreene6913]

😂you gave it the good college try. I’m half black and used to have no problem going to the beach but for some reason the older I’ve gotten it’s just a no for me. More for fear of what’s in the water than anything else. Pools are fine though

Lol, I was that rare kid that would jump in. my grandmother would take my sister and I to the Salon before a family reunion. I would be so excited to get to the pool and I would hear the dreaded words, "You're not getting in that pool after I paid to get your hair done"! 😮‍💨 So I had to sit at the edge of the pool and dangle my feet. I started requesting to not have my hair done so I could get in the pool, my request was always denied. 😒

This is utterly fascinating. It's a completely foreign social experience to what's happened in my life. A pool party is all about the pool and GETTING IN IT! Standing around the pool dressed up is fine, but then it's not a "pool" party, it's just a damn party! Ha! I am black too!

I swam at a beach for the 1st time just last year. I took my 2 nieces and their friend to SC. They were actually swimming like they were in a pool. I said, “if they’re not afraid of Sharks I’m not going to be, so I swam. But right before that 4 Black women were right at the water just chillin. They then got up, put their feet in the Ocean and started taking pictures. I cracked up!😂 Dude you’re hilarious😂

Thank you for including clips of black people laughing so I know it's okay to laugh.

[@jsusna1972]

I attended a James Brown concert in the late 60s and a black comedian opened the show. He told some jokes about white people, which were hilariously funny, and I could see some black people looking my way to see if I thought the jokes were funny, too. Yep, they were. As someone else said, "Funny is funny."

Dang I just learned to swim at the age of 42 lol. I love being in the pool. The deeper the more fun it is. I swam in a lake last year for the first time. This year I’m learning to canoe. I want go far in the ocean! That’s totally different water and buoyancy. The lake I was in was man made and they drain it to clean it plus it was only 15ft. I hate I waited so long to learn to swim. I swim year round and lost 35 pounds in one year not trying because I love to swim. I encouraged my mother to learn this year because it helps with arthritis. I’m paying for her to take private lessons. We will see how it goes!

Also found out, she doesn't know how to swim. I was like, "You lived in Rio and you don't know how to swim?" She looks at me. "That's a white people thing - and by the way.
