I dropped my previous phone, an iPhone 4S which nobody claimed was waterproof, in the shallows at the beach once; I grabbed it out quickly and wiped it dry and it worked fine. Then a couple of months later I dropped it from the same height on to a concrete walkway and that was the end of it. Go figure. Its not just phones anyway - ruin a woman's electronic car keys and she can't drive home.....
As for the supposed good old days, before women had smartphones they had wristwatches, which in those days were rarely waterproof. They also had old-style credit cards, with a signature on a strip of non-waterproof paper and no chips or anything else inside to back that up, so as soon as the paper got wet the signature blurred and the card was useless. And before there were phones to store info on, she was also liable to have lots of paper documents with important notes, addresses, etc, all liable to become unreadable on contact with water. Though at least car keys in those days were just physical keys and effectively waterproof.
So it always was risky throwing somebody in the water spontaneously. But unless she is actually rather hoping somebody will throw her in you risk being on an assault charge anyway - and if she is rather hoping (which many women are in my experience) she will have prepared herself for the eventuality... |

By Hopping Mad - Wed 17/07/19 06:38:18 GMT If you spend $500 on a phone and it's not waterproof, you are asking for it.
Seriously, Samsung have had water-resistant Galaxy's since the S5. |

By Anonymous 2 - Wed 17/07/19 03:51:24 GMT Not like 25 years ago when most people did not have cell phones in their pockets...You could get away with shoving someone in the pool for fun..NOT today!...You got to be careful at parties/events and such before you go and toss some girl in the pool because she could be carrying a 2,3,4,or $500.00 phone in her pocket. Even a flip phone can be expensive and 99% of them are NOT waterproof....So if their phones in their pockets and they go splash for some guys fun, it could cost him out the ass if you do the math....RIGHT???? Today, phones in pockets take away this one time pleasure of spur of the moment and just wet fun.....So when you see women getting pushed in the pool you might considered it was staged from the beginning or someone takes her phone from her before the push.....
