    Breast practice on the riviera

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/8178818.stm

    "There was a time when French beaches were full of topless women - but no longer."

    This is definetly a step backwards.

    In the UK too. Had hoped that society would move away from the ludicrous religious repression foisted on us by "The religions of the book" towards a more natural attitude to bodies and sexuality but we seem to be going backwards.

    It is noticeable even in the gym changing rooms, it is only us saggy old farts (who probably shouldn't) who let it all hang out anymore, younger blokes wrap themselves in towels and fiddle about drying and dressing themselves underneath as if they were on a public beach. It's ludicrous.

      How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

          Maybe they're worried about "saggy old farts" like you eyeing them up in the gym

          (only joking )

            I've just thought. This was 2003 and I wasn't in the UK then. Was it shown here?

                I've seen it.

                I am not sure if it was shown on TV in the UK but it either did the rounds as an internet viral campaign, or I just saw it on one of those amusing-adverts-from-around-the-world shows.

                    maybe us saggy ol uns haven't got anything to be embarrased about? With all the female hormones in the water the younger generation are probably caught short.
