    I mean, yeah women are being sexualised. But they are also well within their rights to be confident and proud of their bodies. Last comment had it right - there is a wider issue, but a bikini ban would never address it.

    We had a great advert on a while ago that did this better - togs, togs, undies. Think it was an ice cream ad?

      Women are gonna be sexualised regardless, I suspect. Wherever the line is drawn, give it a generation or two and men and WLWs will be all about women wearing one step below that line.

        Mr Grace first made his concerns known … saying he had become distracted by women wearing triangle bikinis.

        I’m distracted by their thighs, they should wear knee-length skirts. Oh no, now I’m horny looking at their toned calf. And ankles, let’s not forget those sexy ankles.

        You know what, maybe they should just be required to cover everything up, but their eyes. But then again, those curly, luscious lashes. Hmmm…

        Nape of the neck being sexualized due to Japanese kimonos. We need to ban these abhorrent neck revealing robes and wrap up women’s entire neck.

        Up next, we have to stop all this Niqab and burka porn!

      Seems pretty clear from Grace’s statements that he’s the one objectifying these women.

      Seems to me he needs to take a long look at his own thoughts and reorder them before demanding others accede to his demands.

        He’s like, “I’m a AAA pervert and that’s the fault of G-strings girls.”

        And he’s making headlines with that statement lmao.

    I love how the whole reasoning given is that the fucker can’t stop himself from oogling women’s butts, so they ought to not show them to him because clearly they are at fault here.

    Why exactly did we stop taring and feathering people?

    I’ll never understand people preferring to have a wedgie, but I will always support their right to make that choice.

        I tried it long enough to adjust, and I can assure you, it’s still uncomfortable. Hard to cancel that instinctive urge to pull the wedgie out of your butt crack.

    This was covered quite early on when Jesus said to pluck out your eyeball if someone was too tempting to look at. Unless the woman is coming into your home uninvited, then she can wear what she likes.

      It’s funny how Jesus was actually more reasonable than most conservatives today. If only they actually bothered to read him
