Another
item that’s exercising the “We’re grumpy about everything” crowd is the
burkini. It’s a bathing costume that completely covers the body. It’s not
unlike those of the early 20th Century, but more stylish. It also
covers a portion of the wearer’s face, to comply with Muslim religious
standards.
And
some people are griping that it’s oppressive.
I
don’t have much experience with oppression, but I never pictured oppressed
women frolicking on the beach in the first place. And if women want to dress
modestly in public, why shouldn’t they? Not everybody insists on showing
everything they’ve got.
So
relax, and let other women make their own fashion decisions. It’s their choice.
Really.
