Muslim ‘girls only’ swimming sessions ripple Danish waters
The Local ^ | 27 Apr 2016 | The Local

Hundreds of young Muslim girls have flocked to swimming lessons in Copenhagen's immigrant-heavy Tingbjerg district after Hovedstadens Svømmeklub (Capital City Swimming Club) introduced segregated swimming sessions.

While the swimming club has hailed the move as a "recipe for integration", politicians and commentators have criticised the concept as being against Danish values.

The girl-only sessions, which also take place with windows and doors to the swimming hall blacked out, were set up in response to religious and cultural requirements put forward by parents, reports Berlingske.

The newspaper reports that 246 girls of non-Danish ethnic origin between the ages of five and 12 have begun attending swimming lessons at the hall since the sessions were introduced.

“We have gone from zero to several hundred girls in three years, and have successfully established a swimming option for a specific group, which would otherwise find swimming difficult to access because of religion,” Lars Sørensen, the director of Hovedstadens Svømmeklub (HSK), told Berlingske.

We on the right could learn something from the Muslims. They always seem to know how to get what they want.

“Hundreds of young Muslims”

I think I see the problem right there.

The message is clear: Terror works

I agree with the Muslims on this.

There are some men and women that have very poor body image. They would prefer to exercise with their own sex until they feel more confident about how they look.

The entire world should be all for segregated exercise sessions, especially swimming.

If people want coed exercising, then great. But there should always be options for women only and men only.

Anyone who disagrees with this is just being a jerk.

Yet these same politicians evidently have no problem at all with hundreds of thousands of Muslim MALES invading their country.

Or for that matter forcing everyone else to use bathrooms, showers and dressing rooms open to both sexes.

“Europe is finished.”

No, it is not. It will just have to get down and primal to escape the NWO.

They shall escape, over the bones of those who would deny them.

Escape to where?
Ostensibly legal "citizens" of the EU continue to vote for politicians that are openly replacing the voters.

They're done, and so is Britain.

Eastern Europe isn’t putting up with the Mohammadan insanity.

Eastern Europe isn’t putting up with the Mohammadan insanity.

You're right about that, a few countries of the former Warsaw Pact such as Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania have actually taken real and concrete measures to defend their territory and citizens from this invasion.

During their time behind the Iron Curtain of the Soviet Union these countries had all they could do to wait in line for bread and water to get through the week with little time let alone access to the incessant whining of queers and Muslims seen in Western countries.

It's a strange twist of history that these formerly communist countries and their people are so far rejecting the siren song from Berlin.

Hey, you let a bunch of different people in and things are going to be different. Did someone expect a different result?

My sincerest prayers they continue to hold off the evil, both from Mohammadans and from their treasonous Dhimmi apologists in political power.

How would the muslims states react to on muslims carving out no go zones in muslim countries and demanding they accomodate them?

We know because we see what muskim ststes do to non muslims.

This is war. Jihad by immigration and perpetuated by communist anti christian hating, white european hating leaders.

When I was a pre-teen in the early 1950’s always went to camp for a week in the summer which was sponsored by a group called Youth for Christ. Boys and girls had separate swim times. Girls’ swim suits had to be one piece, VERY modest and we had to wear a cover up when going to and from the pool. My parents did not allow me to go on a swim date until I was a senior in high school. Quite different from the way girls are raised today.

Am just amazed at the amount of nudity when we go to the beach. Just a whole lot of really fat people letting it all hang out.
