Correct.

Until then, he just has irrational fear and bigotry.

Pretty much the rightard way.

Is it irrational fear and bigotry when Muslims won't let us show our skin??


It's law.

Read the quote again: "When it is actually against the law to wear a burqa or any other attire in Australia you might have a point".

It's more than just law numbskull. I'll ask again- according to you it's  bigotry to frown on the burqa? So  is it bigotry to frown on speedos?


It's the law.

Try to keep up, please.



Lucky you cut out the bit where philperth mentioned respecting a country's culture, otherwise getting another 'semantic' win would have been difficult.  Smiley


BTW Im all for legally banning both attire in pubic.




Just wondering, why are you for banning the speedo?



Not a good look for anyone, anywhere.  Smiley


Boardies are the togs of choice



I completely disagree, I am in my 20s and am very buff and masculine and look good in them. Maybe not for fat old men but they do feel more comfortable than board shorts.



I don't care how old you are or in what condition you are, I do not want to see your junk.



Nobody's making you look. Besides,mwhat about bikinis? They are just as revealing.



There are lots of things you can't do in public, I may not be forced to look at them, doesn't mean you are allowed to do it; just throw speedos and burkas on that list.


I also do not want to look at dudes in in public bikinis / mankinis / thongs / etc.



What about women in bikinis?





Different conversation, but that is where young and buff is relevant to acceptable or unacceptable.  Smiley




That's a double standard then. You're being extremely hypocritical if you think that speedos are too revealing but bikinis aren't.

Also I don't know which part of Darwin you live, but there are heaps of men at Mindil Beach who wear speedos.

No it is the standard of a heterosexual male, bikini women = good, speedo men = not good.


I live right next to Mindal, and only go for the markets, not the semi-naked dudes on the beach.

D1ck togs or boardies, neither are much protection.  Smiley

I meant why bikinis okay for women when just as revealing as speedos are for men?

But now that you've raised it crocs are quite rare at Mindil Beach and when they do come they're quite small.

The entire male population of Darwin is not down Mindil Beach in budgies, I can assure you.

No stinky burka wearers either.
