Winter-sports balaclavas are useful for protecting the human skin in cold conditions and in cold conditions only. As far as S&M masks in public are concerned, care to elaborate about this ;-) cuz I can’t think of a legal scenario where this comes into play.

I completely agree with you - policing what women wear on the beach is dumb and useless. I am skeptical of the impulse to educate people out of their religious belief (not that I think that’s what you’re saying, I just think the solution - if there is one - is more complicated than that —- but that’s probably for…

I was going to say that it looks a lot like the wetsuits that a lot of people (both male and female) wear to surf off Cape Cod. The waves on the outer Cape are surprisingly big and surf-able, but the Atlantic is pretty frigid up until the beginning of August. A wetsuit makes it possible to surf comfortably from late…

Maybe I’m just catching the hot Muslim women but the Birkini when wet has a way of really showing off a womans curves. I guess it’s only hot if a woman is drunk at a week t competition to some. They do resemble surfer wear as well.

—Well according to many people who believe in Islam, women’s bodies should be policed.—

Me too. I am still in my 20s and have already had 8 surgeries for early stages of skin cancer. Living in SoCal, I haven’t gone outside without my arms, legs, and head covered in years. I’m an atheist and not at all conservative in my dress. Oh also I love when men tell me to “show some skin, it’s summer” and then I…

Well, I do have an argument, I just don’t want to waste my time with you. You’re already locked into your POV, and it’s pointless to me to help further your desire to die on the stupid hill you’ve chosen.

I’m in dubai!!! It’s 724pm!

You don’t see the problem in combating Islam’s retrograde view of policing women’s bodies by policing what women can wear? If you don’t understand the absurdity of this law I don’t know what to tell you.

Oh, I’m pretty sure no one’s missed your point. Misguided as it is.

How is the government to know that’s the interpretation behind a certain clothing choice, and why is it the government’s job to police that interpretation? Many women wearing these types of clothing would not characterize it as their bodies being shameful, but of them wanting to adhere to a notion of modesty.

Yes, the moral idea that women are autonomous and are smart enough to decide on their own apparel. Do you have the same issues with Catholic nuns in habits or Buddhist monks in robes?

I do water aerobics in the evening and it's starting to get chilly and I've been joking about wearing a burkini. Except I'm not joking, I'm going to start wearing a rash guard soon because it's getting cold! But I could also wear a rash guard because I am modest. Or because I have sun sensitivity. Or because I'm an…

That is basically what a Libertarian is, “No harm = No foul.” as a basis for a political party. Ignore Rand Paul, he isn’t a libertarian.

Right? It looks like the suit thingy that surfers wear.

There’s a putrid aura that surrounds her. The tomato I hurled suddenly stopped six inches from her face, was suspended in mid air for a moment, and then rapidly decomposed before my very eyes.

All she placed on the conveyor belt was a single bloody 24-ounce porterhouse. Wasn’t even wrapped in butcher’s paper or anything.

I have read previously that during filming of Parks and Rec that he and Amy Poehler did not get along because of their political differences — a bummer, because I want to believe he is an excitable puppy of a human being all of the times !

She is a despicable human being. Fuck her. Oh, hey everyone!!! Today’s non Ann Coulter update (that worthless piece of shit): It’s 5:08 PM in Dubai and the Heat Index is currently 121 degrees, or as the rest of the world says, 50 Fahrenheit. You could easily roast Ann Coulter on a spit in this weather. Also, here’s a…

I once stood behind Ann Coulter on line at a supermarket checkout. It took me all my strength not to throw my produce at her.
