but so what...rather them fully covered than a load of fat russians in g-strings (men and women)...

they aren't bothering you, so leave them alone...it's their country after all...

No way, just knee length shorts D&G or Hugo Boss

I know it's their country, but still it's not normal - while I agree fat Russians in G-strings is fugly, women swimming around in full kit is just wrong on soo many levels. It's fine wearing it in malls etc. but in a swimming pool?

best not venture out then...you're obviously very sensitive
nice of you to be fine with them wearing their 'full kit' in the malls...I am sure they will appreciate it...

People will do crazy things to please a god, but I can sympathise with them being a member of the Church of the Spaghetti Monster. His noodlyness will judge us all, Ramen!

what's "normal"...look what westerners used to wear a hundred or so years ago...

here's the swimwear fashion from 1858:


and if it's the difference between them being able to go in the water or not, why would you begrudge them that...

i'd lol if I saw her in a pool, she'd most likely drown, also it's 2008 now not 1858. That doesn't work on a few levels:

She'd look stupid
It's not practical
She'd be at danger from drowning.
