From a fashion standpoint the burka and burkini are bullshit."Women are being dictated to and squeezed from all sides. Beyond the strictures of social norms — and they are powerful in many countries — the use of the tools of government to enforce dress codes and standards of appearance is becoming increasingly prevalent in countries where the men in power see their domination and sense of national identity slipping away. And this is true for the secular left as much as the religious right."
Burkini Wars Show What’s Wrong With the Religious Right — and Secular Left
I do not think there is any clear winner in this contest.
There is no need for a burka or Burkini.
It's not flattering and really the only reason it's worn is because Islamic men do not have any self control to not rape women.
its Islamic men that must change not the women. Poor women have to dress ridiculously or be raped and assaulted. Which is Precisely why I would never let any Islamic boy near my daughters.
From a humanitarian standpoint the burka and burkini are bullshit
From a religious standpoint the burka and burkini are bullshit
Bullshit sure is gettin' spread around!!! But remember; it .....
It was invented in Western Sydney. I see the burkini as a transition garment. Some are quite cute.

Why do you see it as a transition garment? Is there any evidence of this?
Also, a few days ago I read an article by a Muslim woman who said the burqini garment was worn in Egypt before the name was trademarked by a Muslim woman in Australia.
It's not a full burka. I think as a change to something that's less rigid as is a burka then it's a positive development. Plus it's not been artound long. See how far the humble bikini has changed over the years; some are downright pornographic now.
I think the hat thingy needs a lot of work.
