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.
You are delusional. This hygiene law is very old. I think it is a weird law but it has nothing to do with Apartheid or discrimination against Muslims. It is just a weird law. If a non muslim woman visits a Muslim country she also needs to dress accordingly. Which is just their law or is that white christian/atheist Apartheid to you?
You should look up when France colonized Algeria (and other African countries). This stuff all goes back quite a while. France also tried banning Burkinis at beaches recently (but failed).
You think these people take swimming hygene seriously?
Colonization and what happened in colonies is a tragedy. That should never have happened. But I don’t think they came up with their pool hygiene law to discriminate against Muslims.
And for the Seine… Atleast they tried and put more than 1 billion euro into getting it cleaned for the Olympics. Before that, there was a ban to swim there.
It happened around laicite so I can imagine that it was used against Christians as well. The laws were also not universally applied until much later around the 80’s.
Maybe in the 1900’s people jumped into the pool with the same pants they wore all day but that certainly isn’t happening these days. Swimwear is specifically put on before going into the pool and people can take showers beforehand. Archaic laws like this have no real reason to exist other than enforcing Apartheid. You can find plenty of other archaic laws like it which aren’t enforced at all
According to a 1910 law, again technically still in place in France, it is illegal to kiss on train platforms.
While it remains in place no formal penalty exists so you should be safe to share a goodbye kiss before catching the train.
The actual solution to the problem is obviously for people to take a shower before entering the pool and to wear clothes for swimming. Not to ban certain types of swimwear.
