"Politicians are airing suggestions to allow topless bathing at public pools"
That was the sub-heading of an article I read in The Copenhagen Post recently. Basically, it's about how some politicians want to allow women to swim topless in the public swimming centres, essentially because if guys can do it, why can't women?
It is SO absurd! I mean, do guys have BREASTS?!? No! So what...has it come down to "either we bare all like them, or they put on bikini tops like us"??? Seriously, I'm really tired of feminist groups who think men and women should be the same, do the same and behave the same. We're NOT the same! Get over it! Accept it! We are however, equal....and that's not the same as "the same"... . In other words, we have equal access to the swimming centres, but we do not dress the same way while in there. See the difference?
A quote from the article: ‘We’re tired of women being sex symbols who aren’t allowed to have armpit hair or on their legs,’ said Maria Høeg, a spokesperson for the Bare Breasts group.
Well Ms Maria Hag, oops! I mean, Høeg...who on earth told you that women are NOT ALLOWED to have armpit hair, leg hair or hair somewhere else where I won't mention??? Who's stopping you from growing your own forest anywhere you want on your piece of land? Most of us choose to do so or not based on our own personal hygiene and beauty preference, not because men insist on it.
Sure, most guys would prefer their women not to feel like hairy men, but personally, I'm sure most women would prefer not to feel like hairy men either. Anyway, what does armpit hair or leg hair have to do with breasts again? Hmm... .
I don't dig being topless on the beach either, but at least those who do that usually do it because they want to avoid bikini tan lines when they sunbathe. But the purpose on being topless in an indoor swimming centre would be what? I mean, I already sometimes get traumatised from seeing too many hanging, wrinkly breasts in the ladies shower, so the least one could do is to put on some kind of support and covering while swimming.
Oh well, if they really go ahead with allowing this, then at least there is a specified time for it. Just as long as the slotted time is set to some time very early in the morning so that it won't interfere with my usual swimming time... .
Then again, my swimming membership is already expiring next Tuesday, so you know what? Maybe I shouldn't care much about this anyway... .
