France falls out of love with topless sunbathing World news The Guardian


Sacre bleu! C'est terrible!

I've officially cancelled my trip to the French Riveria this year and all following years unless this travesty is rectified.
Historical feminist writing details how the row over toplessness was a struggle for women to do what they liked with their bodies. What has been projected on to it today are different values, identified, not with equality but desire, sexualisation of the body, voluptuousness and the body perfect.

It's less about women feeling at ease and free. It has been linked to the harsh cult of the body beautiful, where no imperfection is tolerated.

Will these feminists make up their bloody minds!

First they were shouting, "pants down and tits out." Now they've aligned themselves with the religious right in demanding everyone cover up!
