Wholesome Swimwear for Modest Women ! Finally!


THE CULOTTE SWIMMER
The original culotte swimmer is modest swimwear for the more active swimmer. This design has a body fitting undergarment made of Spandex for maximum flexibility. And the looser fitting taslan scoop-necked romper outer garment gives a stylish modest look.

4. If the tights went down to the ankles,
and the sleeves were down to the wrists, those women wearing hijab could wear this as well.

Actually, this style might actually look ok on this old woman!

Although I wear knee length shorts and a T-shirt to the beach. I don't go in the water because they dump sewage in it.

32. Hey, that's an idea!! Maybe the designers should
contact and offer samples to various US Muslim women's cultural organizations for their feedback. Could open up a new market!!

Fat and frustrated! I can relate! I would actually look for something like that whenever I was heavier! Truly. I would joke about neck to ankle bathing suits!

15. You get much more fabric in one of those suits
And it's going to weigh down the woman wearing to the point she'll just slip under and drown.

Look, I understand not wanting to wear two pieces of dental floss, but this is just carrying things to extreme.

46. A swim suit made of "water repellant material"...
prevents any chance of the suit clinging to ones body, I guess.

Brilliant.

Edited on Fri Jan-27-06 03:31 PM by Nikia
Personally I think that neither bikinis nor baggy suits (this one or even men's swim trunks) are suitable for swimming. No one complains that most men dress relatively modestly at the pool by wearing baggy trunks. Some men even wear tee shirts but no one says that they they are prudes.
I personally prefer suits made for swimming, one piece suitss with sturdy straps that are form fitting but cover the main part of the body.

26. You should try this catalog, I've bought from them before.
www.h2owear.com

and from what I understand, a number of swim instructors and aqua therapists use them.

Also, a number of lifeguard organizations.

29. Actually, if they had a long-sleeved version, I'd consider it....
I'm sensitive to chlorine, and can't really be in the sun for fear of burning. I don't mind wet suits, but these are less expensive than longsleeved wet suits.

I miss swimming....

35. renta-burkha comming to a mall near you !!!
Don't be caught unprepared for the stares of the impure!!

Protect your virginal flesh from the depredations of lust!!

Look for: RENTA_BURKAH

Cummmmmming (ahhhhhhhhhh) to a center of the consumer economy near you!!!

Protect your womanly modesty while you do your duty as a member of the consumer economy!!!

Keep those lusty hounds from gazing at your ankles as you decide which merchant to support !!!

Don't be importuned while you shop!!!

Ann Coulter wears one and swears by it: "I haven't gotten fucked in 15 years thanks to my Renta-Burkah. Now I patronize (in a Repubican way) Vibes-R-Us exclusively to get my jollies. No more annoying biological urges, I give my mind to George Bush and my Bush to my vibrator!!! Oh yeah, baby!!!!"

Close your eyes and think of Crawford - it's RENTA-BURKAH!!!!!"

42. This Suit Encourages Obesity
Looking good on the beach is a prime motivating factor for many people to lose weight. This suit eliminates that need. Now folks can stuff their faces, put this suit on, and don't have to worry about being fat on the beach.

50. loose dress, add long sleeves for sun protection
I do not tan, only burn, so wind up wearing t-shirt and shorts over my swim suit. I have seen jump suits marketed for children as swimwear and keep wondering why they are not made for adults (of both genders). Beats wearing a gallon of sunscreen.

The pictured suit is truely dorky. Like I said, loose the dress and give it long sleeves.

Edited on Sat Jan-28-06 05:04 AM by applegrove
I think the undergarmet would be pretty revealing. Like a wet suit. I guess the girls will not be taught the front crawl or water safety, rescue or defensive techniques. Why would they need to know that. They will one day be mothers of 18. Nine of their children, all the daughters at the lowest point for bodyfat in their lives, will be prone to sinking in those things. Who would miss a child or two if you have 18 of them. :sarcasm:

66. I don't know
The neck, arms and lower legs are still exposed. Wouldn't this still encourage many young christian men to approach the young lady and maybe engauge her with unwholesome conversation, maybe even ask her to a (gasp) dance, heaven forbid.

You know what immoderate clothing can lead to.

Maybe focusing on just the clothing is too narrow. Maybe designating beaches as boys-girls would also be in order.
