Berlin to let everyone go topless at public swimming pools
The Associated Press ^ | March 9, 2023

BERLIN (AP) — Women in Berlin will soon be allowed to go topless at the city’s public swimming pools, like men, the Berlin state government said Thursday.

The new bathing rules allowing everyone to go swimming without covering their torsos followed a discrimination complaint by a woman who was not allowed to go topless in a swimming pool in the capital.

The woman, whose identity was not revealed, had turned to the senate’s ombudsperson’s office for equal treatment to demand that women, like men, can swim topless, the Berlin senate for justice, diversity and anti-discrimination said in a written statement.

In reaction to the complaint and the ombudsman’s involvement in the case, the Berliner Baederbetriebe, which runs the city’s public pools, decided to change its clothing rules, the statement said.

“The ombudsperson’s office very much welcomes the decision of the Baederbetriebe, because it establishes equal rights for all Berliners, whether male, female or non-binary, and because it also creates legal certainty for the staff at the Baederbetriebe,” said Doris Liebscher, the head of the ombudsperson’s office.

You can bet that the rape rate will take a big jump. Anyone complaining about it will automatically be called a “racist”. This is what people like Doris Liebscher want. They thrive on cultural degradation and chaos. It’s the exact same kind of stuff the Frankfurt School was promoting during the Weimar Republic.

Not too long ago the mayor of one of Germany's large cities (can't recall which one) was asked to address the fact that women were being harassed and bothered by “immigrant” (meaning moslem) males. The mayor's solution was that women should dress more conservatively.

In my current career, there are two kinds of naked: naked you want to see and naked you don’t want to see………..

….and when you see naked you don’t want to see, you can NEVER unsee it….

Most women’s boobs are not worth looking at they’re sloppy, hang down and nothing like models.

You're hangin out with the wrong chicks.

Maybe not for you, but to a starving man, everything looks like a ribeye steak.
