| New! For Australian Beaches: The Burkini !
The " Burkini" will allow Muslim women to swim in an acceptable fashion.

this rates right up there with the sabbath button on GE stoves on my "Get with the Times, People!" list, available in paperback for $19.95 plus S&H.

personally I have to say it looks backwards.
But are bikini's really more advanced/better are they a evolutionary step forward, neutral, or step backward.
i like em but I am not sure they advance society. |

After the ethnic trouble last summer, between Aussies and Lebanese muslims, I think they'd better find beaches for muslims only.

Muslims in Australia ought get use to how Australians dress at the beach. Setting aside a beach for Muslims will do no good.

Disley,
I still believe you should adopt the culture of the land you are in. The whole dress thing though,,, I am not sure if it rises to the level of not adopting the culture of your adopted land.
clothes seems like a personal choice.
language (a must)
Laws (a must) no honor killing and such and wife can sue for divorce same as man
clothes (seems optional to me) |

I don't know why they bother, trying to look so different is just as extroverted as punks in their torn clothes and safety pins. |
