No, not Brighton beach, but probably somewhere in 'Arabia'.
Many burka-wearing women say that they like to be totally covered, but one wonders what their husbands would say/do if they said otherwise. How can this poor woman in the photo not be desperate to join her family in the water?
Humans are humans wherever they live, and women want the same freedoms and opportunities as their sisters elsewhere. To be educated, to find a nice husband, to make her own decisions, to be her own person. These are basic desires, and rights.
I do have sympathy with these oppressed women, but if it's what they REALLY want, then OK. However, I don't believe a word of it. I mean; just look at this poor woman; obeying the wishes of her husband (I presume the photo is genuine). I can just see her thinking how nice it would be to wear a bikini, let her skin feel the sunshine, and throw herself into the cooling water.
Is there a woman in the world who really wants to be covered from head to toe in a black shroud for the whole of their lives..... and for what?
Several major EU countries are now banning the wearing of such clothes. With 'facial recognition' cameras being installed everywhere, they NEED to be outlawed.
On a personal note, I must say that I do find them quite amusing. I suppose I shouldn't laugh at them, but they do look quite comical.
Could there possibly be a sillier form of dress ???

Some years ago, I was on a plane sitting next to an attractive young Moslem woman. She defended the notion of "covering up" in an interesting way. When talking to men (she said), they are always checking out ny face and figure, rather than listening to what I have to say.
I wonder if the women do the same with men? This is part of human nature, we all enjoy the company of attractive people.
