Who in their right mind thinks that showing just their eyeballs or just their face is a good thing on a beach when it's 95 degrees?
And before you talk about how liberating it is for women to wear what they wish.... There is zero way that a wearing a Burkini is liberating for any woman..... It would be a strange woman who thinks wearing a Burkini is a great option.
It's not a good thing to go onto the beach in that weather with just a bikini either, you can get skin cancer.
Lots of things are stupid. Go to Malaysia and they're dipping in the sea in their clothes.
Just because you're used to something, doesn't mean others are. In Victorian England people wouldn't have gone in a skimpy bikini. They'd have been mostly covered up.
Or covered up and their nipples showing off....
If Muslims want to wear the bathing suit in that bottom photo then that's fine.
Surely it's fine if Muslims where what they want. Isn't that freedom?
So we are ok if all husbands tell their wives what they can and can not wear?
This is an issue where religion and social acceptance comes cross.
You didn't seem to care about religious freedom when it came to the wedding baker and the gay cake.
According to that its been set that we favour societal norms over religious freedom. So are we going back to religious freedom now? Or are we telling the religious people to get over it and evolve? Just like we did the bakers.......
Yes, I'm okay with husbands telling their wives what to wear. It happens all the time. An ex of mine, her uncle was color blind almost totally, couldn't tell the difference between almost any color, saw perhaps two colors. His wife told him what to wear.
In an ideal world relationships would be based on equality, love, trust, all of that stuff, but so many aren't. In Islam, in Christianity, in nothing, there are people who will dominate others.
I don't like Islam, I don't like any religion, and the fact that men use it as a way of keeping women down makes me angry. However sometimes you have to accept what you don't like.
If I can do everything I want, it's anarchy, which means murder is okay, which means I can be murdered. I don't like this. So.... I prefer a limited amount of freedom where murder is wrong and I don't get murdered so I can enjoy my limited freedom.
This is life.
If we want freedom we have to accept that some people won't have that freedom, because they've "chosen" to not to have it. The woman has had many chances to get away, but she didn't, for whatever reasons.
