Fighting for the ‘Soul of France,’ More Towns Ban a Bathing Suit: The Burkini

[Wyman]

I LOVE it when modern multi-culturalism comes into conflict with feminism and with freed of speech and with freedom of religion and with freedom from religious establishment. It just throws all the ideologues into a tizzy fit. Their heads spin around while steam spews from their ears.

What to do? Medieval muslims make their women cover themselves head to toe and set their daughters on fire if they have an affair or pre-marital sex. Understandably, feminists and progressives do not like this. But the multi-culturalists think it anathema to criticize any culture other than Western culture. What to do? Banning these swim suits obviously violates freedom of religion and probably freedom of speech (expression). But it is also downright medieval. What can a modern progressive do?

There's no need to ban the "burkini."

What you ban is someone being forced to wear a burkini against their will, just in case that happens.*

But that's already banned--there are general laws against forcing people to do things against their will--so there's no need for any additional bans on anything.




* (Of course, lots of people wearing burkinis will do so willingly. There's nothing wrong with this.)

Hey, nice drowning suit. There's a reason most don't swim in baggy clothes; because it hinders swimming.
