Yes, but it has everything to do with their swimsuits – not their personalities.

The women, including aspiring Olympic 10K swimmer Cara Baker of New Zealand shown here, at the world-class level of open water swimming are down-to-earth, polite and considerate young ladies (and mothers) who are great ambassadors of sport and of sportsmanship.

But get these women in a competitive situation in the open water around a turn buoy and coming into the finish…and watch out.

Stay outta their way!

More of these little mermaids, water goddesses and aqua angels can be found here at Aqua Diva Swimwear.
