AndyGiles Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 How bizarre... http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/article6790200.ece I don't quite understand why - most serious swimmer wear them at UK public pools - what's the big deal? It's going to be interesting to see how they police this ban! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ginzo Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 “We are also looking into offering complimentary male waxing, which will preserve the dignity of all our guests.” Did we all enter into some kind of time vortex where we were magically transported to April 1st? Oh, and Robb, are you going to get us all bikini waxing ERT on the UK trip next year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paintballer Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Yay! No more vomit inducing swim attire!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shavethewhales Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 "The resort is also considering introducing mandatory bikini waxing for men, in a bid to prevent unsightly hair from being on display.” They might as well just start banning men from the pool. So women can go ahead and wear bikinis and other form-fitting suits, but god forbid you see a bulge in a man's swimsuit. THAT would be non-family-friendly. Yeah, another reason I've started avoiding AT anytime I'm lucky enough to be in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WFChris Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Seems to me a 'bikini wax' is totally unnecessary if men are required to cover up from knee to waist. Somehow this article does not seem very legit to me. Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorkscrewFoley Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 I have no issues with it. Both of my bathing suits are the furthest thing from offensive. Mind you, they're a bit flamboyant, but that's just fine by me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrguy606 Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Oh come on! I mean,. after I got kicked out of hurricane harbour cause of a my choice of swim attire, and then our appartment complex saying that htey are a nogo, its getting rediculous. Apparently, people don;t want to have even the slightest chance to see a bulge, yet women are pretty much expected to wear things that cling everywhere. If you don;t think that is appropriate for your child to see, don;t take them there. Other people have rights to, you know. I'm always offended by that comment, I don;t think its appropriate. Well, explain why its not, and don;t give me and of that cause I said it was bullsh*t. Stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem rather one-sided when women are able to show everything they have but men aren't? You would think people would not be so closed minded and want to take away rights from people. I personally don't wear speedos but I don't think people should be able to deny someone else the same rights women have. Just my opinion...

kenshinmac Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 Why are people acting like it is a right to wear whatever you want on private property? It is their property and they set the rules. Didn't you notice all the signs saying no gang paraphernalia, no swear words on attire, etc in parks? They can do what they please and it is very likely that they DO get complaints from families when ANYONE wears revealing swimsuits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted August 11, 2009 Share Posted August 11, 2009 This thread is going nowhere good, but it is getting there fast. On a theme park forum, we don't need a bunch of legal non-experts debating "rights" on public versus private property. Especially when laws vary across nations, states, cities and even municipalities. Until Alan Dershowitz chimes in, this thread in LOCKED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
