But Speedos are fine, right? Because men?
From the sounds of it, typical bikini briefs are allowed, only g-strings are not. Of the styles shown in this image from Wikipedia, only the one labelled "thong" would be banned, I think. Men's speedos are usually most similar to the one labelled "bikini".
God forbid you have a fat ass and your bikini rides up
So didn't read and just opened up your mouth. 👍 Perfection.
Of course I read the article. But the article adds nothing to the confusion around what is and isn't too revealing.
Where in that line? Who makes that call? Why is this even an issue? I'm saying a pair of speedos is more revealing than a bikini, but they're fine.
There have been several occasions where governments have tried to dictate specifically to women about what they can wear while swimming in public. This reads like more of the same. Nobody complains about what men wear in public, only and always women.
The arguments always seem to come from people who are sexualising women, usually men 'who don't feel comfortable'. That's a you problem, mate. Don't like it? Go somewhere else.
