Now if only the companies making the equipment could acknowledge that too

A wetsuit that a women could wear and pee easily. I used to kayak when I was younger, the options, if you were out all day, was pee in your suit (yuck! especiallyas the suits were hired) or find a rock to hide behind and strip off, time consuming and embarrassing. Blokes suits had a wee zip. But, as in the article, there are other watersports where time and privacy can't be found and they get too watersporty. This is discounting periods. I put myself on the pill so I wouldn't menstruate. It didn't work but it made them lighter so I could cope with super duper tampons.
Also, the suits had no room for boobs.
