    Unlike my poor mistaken friend who mistakenly defined the word as something else, I know what [backstroke] actually is. The perfect stroke, relying on actual physical strength, ability and will, unlike breastroke, which is dominated by three-foot tall [dwarfs] with no swimming talent and enormous feet. If youve actually watched swimming before, you know that it takes a sound backstroke leg to win the 400 IM or give your [relay] [a win]. Backstrokers tend to be more manly, and have fun playing games like Dunk the breastroker.

      The most complicated and beautiful stroke in swimming, [backstroke] is similar to freestyle but [swum] facing the sky, as opposed to the bottom of the pool like all other strokes. [Backstroke] is also different from freestyle, breaststroke, and butterfly because it is started in the water instead of from a dive. Backstrokers tend to be long and lean, with a strong core and thighs. Some notable backstrokers are [Ryan Lochte], Aaron Peirsol, Natalie Coughlin, and Missy Franklin.

        The act of [stroking] yourself while [reminiscing] of your ex-girlfriends, typically done while looking at their facebook photos. For added [authenticity], some backstrokers have been known to call or text an ex-girlfriend who is still willing to talk to them, although the stroking is not known to her.

            a way of swimming in which you lie on your back and move one arm and then the other straight behind you so that they pass the sides of your head, while kicking with your legs:
