Same thing. My goodness, bathing suits in a swimming pool! We could go all Burkini if you like! That's right, hide the girls from the boys, so they end up like the nutjobs in ISIS. Those freaks are SOOO sexually repressed they get turned on by adolescent females and throw potentially gay people from tall buildings to their deaths.
The whole point of women covering themselves in the muslim cultures is to protect them from the lusts of men. Hey, look how well THAT turned out!
(yes, I know, modesty in the eyes of their gods, blah blah blah, but if we break it down to the bottom line, it's because men fear their own reactions around females in these repressed, backwards and un-evolved cultures, discuss at great length...)
Go ahead, name a culture that has suppressed the sexuality of their males and females to any benefit, at all, whatsoever!
You'll absolutely find that cultures with a healthy, normal regard for the human body are far more advanced socially, psychologically and emotionally. Talking openly about SEX, our bodies, where babies come from and our responsibilities for our bodies from an early age is the key to growth and healthy psychological well being.
