Swimming pool discrimination

[XTC]

So you aren't allowed to swim with them but you are allowed to sit by the poolside and watch them swim???

Surely this defeats the whole object of a womens only night ?

Nah they have windows. They can stop me swimming, but they can't stop me watching them.

Just get a bunch of lads to wander down to the swimming pool and crowd round the windows cheering every ladies swimming night then. they'll soo stop using them and as the pool is getting know money they will be abolished.

What's the point if they're all wearing PJs?

Well whats the point of ladies only swimming nights if they are all wearing PJs ?

Yes it is, it's virtually 100% Muslim women that go on these women only nights. In fact non-muslim women have stopped going on these womens only nights because they feel initimidated. Other women can't go because they are not allowed to take their young male children and couples can't go. All so some minority group won't be offended. And no the PJ's are exactly what I said they are. They are not figure hugging and certainly are not made of lycra or neoprene with zero (in fact negative) flotation. You might be thinking of the new Hijabkini, but still this has a massive amount of drag.

We can turn this into some big religious debate, but at the end of the day the pool I go to at some point was a unisex 24/7, it now has 3 women only nights 2 men only nights, 1 scuba night and 1 unisex night. As far as I can see this has come about because Muslim women don't want to swim with men, they called for women only nights and to appease men they now have men only nights. One night a week I can now swim in the same pool as my gf...

I've always gone swimming, and every pool I've ever been into has had 2 women-only nights per week. Some have had 2 men-only nights too, but most have had the rest unisex.
3 women-only nights seem a bit much, but thats obviously your area - obviously more women are swimming than men.

Its got feck all to do with muslims though - most lasses dont like swimming with blokes. Blokes fit into 3 types in swimming pools: -

agressive front crawlers, who ram into you
creepy wierdos who always seem to swim under water
smelly old blokes.

It's like a wet T-shirt contest for the Muslim men. Better than when they're wearing burkas, I s'pose.
Hmmm Plan B - charge the Muslim men to watch!

Just what I was thinking, get Mailman and 2uk to nip down in their speedo budgie smugglers, gape at the window and perhaps as a coupe de grace, crack one off........ job done , and if they have problems afterwards, they can always plead insanity and use this board as evidence of their long term acute and persistant condition

has nobody considered that it's actually a life-saving class, and they are practising saving bricks in their jim-jams?

you'll be grateful when you fall into difficulties in a waterway in a predominantly Muslim area

A sort of Bollywood Baywatch (well, for those of Pakistani origin).

Ok fine it's nothing to do with Muslim women then. I jumped to a massive conclusion.

outrageous SA! I fit into none of those categories. I pootle along doing a very sedate breast stroke, and trying *not* to look at the laydeez. Mind you, this strapping lass came in sauna the other day with her other half...was very very difficult to keep staring at the hot coals. Was grateful for the cold shower after. Hmm, maybe I should stick to mens' night
