    Yeah, forcing an effective ban on Muslim women swimming is a real victory. Wouldn’t want them to think you had respect for them as people or basic human decency, now would you?

    /s

    Brother, trying to ban things you don’t like doesn’t work. It just makes the world a worse place to live. This isn’t a win, it’s a loss. You accept people as they are and make the world safer for everyone, not fucking ban a bathing suit because you disagree with a religion.

      Why would “muslim” women be singled out here unless there were some other aspect that you are intentionally trying to link to being muslim. Is there some kind of inherent quality of muslim women that require them to wear a particular style of swim garment that non-muslim women don’t wear?

        Yeah, their religion you dense hippo. Congrats! You’ve learned that some things are haram. Like women showing their hair to men that aren’t family.

      It’s nothing to do with religion and everything to do with French pool hygiene. Atheist men are typically not allowed to wear baggy shorts for example, the only reason I own a few pairs of jammers.

        No, it fucking isn’t. The burkini is made out of the same fabrics as all other swimwear. The amount of fabric doesn’t magically make it a hygiene issue. Stop spouting racist nonsense, my guy.

        I hope you’re not stupid enough to actually buy the dumbest excuse in world history to enforce Apartheid against Muslims. There’s children peeeing in the pool and it’s filled with chlorine. This isn’t going to make any difference it’s just a very bad excuse.
