If you swim in a pool that's correctly chlorinated, is it necessary from your perspective to shower after you get out of the pool?

Never swam in a freshwater lake. But I think I probably still would.

This is one of those little statements that just reminds you how big the world is. I've pretty much only gone to beaches on freshwater lakes, apart from a few vacations to far away places. The idea that it would be inverted for someone else is really jarring to my brain.

Meanwhile, as someone who grew up by a coast, I was shocked when I first heard somebody refer to a lake as a "beach". If you live somewhere that has both, lake beaches are not called beaches. They're just lakes or lakeshores.
