We call them swimming cossies? I've never heard that in my life

[–] ma11en@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

We used it during the late 70s and 80s, I don't recall hearing it recently.

Never heard the term 'cossie' in Australia, 'togs' and 'boardies' are common here though.

You forgot budgie smugglers.

Eh that doesn’t check out as we say boardies in Aus and I’ve never heard anyone say cosies, togs also sounds pretty dated?

It was definitely togs in Qld when I was growing up. Might be the old potato cake/scallop debate all over again.
