  1. You both don't understand the principle of laicité in the way that France is using it : No sign of god in the public square. No matter the religion, the sex, or the color of skin. 

    Could you say burkini is a simple outfit like another one ? 

     

    I repost this, and i stop to talk about it.

    1. Modesty norms inspired by religious doctrine are sexist and one of the multitude of ways that the patriarchy controls women

    2. A state-imposed dress code on women's attire is equally sexist

     

    It is thus a classic case of two wrongs not making a right.

     

     

    Wow, that's huge. As i said, here, men are not allowed to show their balls in the street or on the beach. Same rules for the rest. Same rules for everybody. Men and women.

    How exactly is this going to fix anything?

    If the implication that these women are only wearing the burkini because the men in their life make them is true, then the burkini ban just means they will no longer be able to go to the beach. It won't make those men turn around and say "actually now that the burkini is banned, feel free to just wear a bikini".

    Conversely, for those women for who it is a religiously inspired personal choice, there is even less of a justification for they effectively being banned from the public sphere.

     

    Same laws and rules for everybody. No nudism, no burkini.

    You don't know me. Don't judge me. 

  5.  Deux Français sur trois opposés au burkini
     Le Conseil d'État doit dire s'il est légal d'interdire le burkini. En attendant, seuls 7 % des Français approuvent cette tenue. Et 30 % s'en fichent.

    Nearly two out of three French (64%) are opposed to the very controversial Burkini on beaches. The remaining third (30%) says is "indifferent". And only 6% of the population supports the wearing of full swimsuit. This is the conclusion to an Ifop poll for Le Figaro * Thursday. "We are on a similar level to what we measure overall last April about the veil or headscarf in the street (63% opposed). The beach does not appear as a public space to share and is equated with street spaces in which wearing ostentatious sign is also rejected by two thirds of the French, "says Jérôme Fourquet of Ifop.

    Note, however, that the institute has not asked his sample he approved the ban this Islamic swimsuit on the beach. Indeed, one can condemn an outfit synonymous with an archaic vision of women, without wanting the ban by the police.

    BROOKE BUCHANAN'S FIERY INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT WILL LEAVE YOU WANTING MORE
    The blonde bombshell is rising through the ranks in the modeling industry.

     

    Brooke Buchanan may be an up and coming model, but just a glimpse of the stunning Ohio native's Instagram feed was all it took to convince us to keep an eye on this beautiful blonde starlet. 

    The 21-year-old has only been modeling professionally for a year, but she's already signed to Elite Modeling Management and is being considered for the 2017 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. Take a look for yourself and you'll see what we're talking about.

    My understanding of the burkini is that it was designed as a means for Muslim women to integrate with western society by joining them at the beach and at swimming pools, where Muslim women perhaps wouldn't typically go otherwise. Not to the extent of revealing their bodies of course, but as far as sitting unaccompanied and surrounded by non-Muslims, many of whom are men. That's a move forward and one that I personally would prefer to see encouraged, not attacked.

     

    If that protest in Iran was made to challenge the culture of forcing people to wear a hijab, then it was also in response to women being dictated to by male officials. Which is exactly what's happening in this instance.

     

    These municipal bylaw has been voted by a municipal council. Made of women and men, together. It has been confirmed by a courthouse. 

    Plus, my vision is clear. It's to them to make an effort to get integrate in the society. And not to the whole society to make efforts to do that. 

    My vision, my opinion.
