Don't France have a law where you have to wear skin tight swimwear (regardless of gender) because they see it as being more hygienic as it's much more likely you aren't going to walk around in that swimwear and all get changed into it significant for swimming so it's more likely to be clean or some shit?
Yes, that is what they say. They still chlorinate the shit out of their pools so I guess if they had to account for (gasp) swimming trunks everyone would come out blonde.
Honestly, the Danish (Scandi?) approach of “hey everyone, take an actual shower before getting in” makes more sense and makes a more pleasant pool experience.
That's how it is in the uk too, you shower before and after going in.
