Topless sunbathing, g-strings banned on Paris beach

PARISIAN sunbathers will no longer be allowed to go nude or wear g-strings on the capital's artificial beaches and risk a fine if they are caught baring their breasts or buttocks.

City hall has issued a decree banning indecent clothing to preserve the tranquillity of the sandy beaches created on the banks of the River Seine every summer since 2001.

"People must behave according to good standards to maintain tranquillity, security and public order," the decree said, according to Saturday's edition of Le Parisien. "Notably indecent attire (nude sunbathing, g-strings and toplessness etc) is forbidden."

The city police will be enforcing the rules, and anyone caught baring too much flesh risks a 38 euro ($A63) fine.

Defending the decree, city hall sports official Pascal Cherki told Le Parisien that indecent clothing "could have led to temptations and dangerous behaviour on the banks of the river."

This is a VERY telling development. The French have no sense of morality. This is NOT coming from them of their own accord. This is coming from sub surface pressure from their NEW MASTERS, the Islamo terrorists. The influence these bastards have over France must be much greater than anybody realizes. The frogs are getting boiled as we speak.

Wonder if they'll frisk the offenders.

Interesting point.

Now American men won't know that French women don't shave until AFTER you get them back to the hotel. And then, of course, it's too late.

My thought exactly. The Islamification of Europe continues. I'll bet the American soldiers who gave their lives in WWI and WWII defending France are shaking their heads as they look down from heaven.

Ummm, let's see . . . the French finally do something commendable everybody jumps on them? Most Americans agree that streaking should be illegal, waltzing around nude or topless on public beaches should be illegal and flaunting your private parts in public should be illegal, so what's the problem here?

I'm not one to defend either the French nor the Islamofacists, but enforcing common standards of decency seem like common sense.

Have you ever noticed that those most likely to go nekkid in public are those who look the worst doing it? Could you imagine Helen Thomas nude on a Parasian beach, f'rinstance?

I'm afraid so. Spreading like cockroaches.

France may as well just roll over on its back & wet itself like a submissive dog & hand the country over. Pathetic.

Only in my worst nightmare. And no amount of therapy would cure the screams I would wake up to.

So you don't think they're trying to avoid offending Christian parents out for a Sunday stroll with the kids?
