English term or phrase: woven into the fabric
Here lay the heart of the challenge: with men and women freely swimming and playing together in the water, there had to be a garment that would liberate the body for movement. Yet woven into the fabric of our society were the vestiges of a Biblically-influenced modesty.

inculcados profundamente
Explanation:
And the phrase:
He aquí el dilema: Con hombres y mujeres nadando y retozando juntos en el agua con plena libertad, se necesitaba una prenda de vestir que no restringiera sus movimientos. Sin embargo, profundamente inculcados en nuestra sociedad, aún existían los vestigios de la modestia y el recato prescritos en la Biblia.

entretejidos en la trama


Explanation:
