Sadiq Khan, Londons first Muslim mayor, announced Monday that body shaming advertisements will no longer be allowed in Londons public transport.
As the father of two teenage girls, I am extremely concerned about this kind of advertising which can demean people, particularly women, and make them ashamed of their bodies. It is high time it came to an end, Khan said.
The mayor added, Nobody should feel pressurised, while they travel on the Tube or bus, into unrealistic expectations surrounding their bodies and I want to send a clear message to the advertising industry about this.
Khan was not clear in what would determine which ads would be banned, as it doesnt include all images of people in underwear or swimming clothes. Most underwear and bikini models though can be assumed to have non-average bodies.

He’s smart. Using feminist language to push Islamic goals.

Seems I read some time ago that 2020 was to be the year of triumph over the West. Something uncomfortably, unbelievably near on the calendar.

Yea, we can. You do have a point though. But don’t forget Barry’s apology tour, and all the support he got from overseas.
while they shouldn’t have a voice, they helped to influence the democrat and clueless populace into electing the usurper.

Some whimsy added to that restrictive body stocking. Notice not TOO much whimsy, the whole thing doesn’t have that sunshine 70s pattern.

They are pushing up the age of strippers in clubs as well.
Next they will be requiring double digit number of transgender strippers on staff.

That’s right — burkas defy the male gaze so on some level feminists can’t help but like them.

In other words, women are to stay out sight and out of mind.
Islamic misogyny encounters no criticism from liberals.
