        Have you ever worn full dress in the water? Clingy & uncomfortable. And it looks ridiculous.

        I figured this out on my own. Simply put -- France is ailinating Muslins by not letting women practice their beliefs.

        It's an indication of how once-democratic gov'nts are abandoning the pillars of democracy because of fear and/or xenophobia.

        If her face is uncovered, I don't think there should be a problem. I'd rather look at her than a fat guy in speedos

        If you #hate #Muslims so much why not just think of the #burkini as something that's none of your business, cause it's really not.

        Personally & contextually, not selfish engh to cosign policing these women's rights to adhere to their own religion's tenants.
