Ladies Only Beach

xoxoxoBruce · 07-12-2007, 07:03 PM

According to ABC news, there's a beach in italy for ladies only, so they can get away from, "leering Italian men, children and loud disco music". The beach is, however, "complete with exercise classes, water aerobics and makeup and manicure tips."

I love this line...

The beach does have one man.
"The lifeguard must be a man," Ravaglio said in a foreign newspaper interview. "You clearly need a man to save women in the sea. It's a question of muscles."

Bwahahahahahaha... still thinking Italian.

Wow, all these years I thought those Italian women liked that kind of thing. I guess you learn something new every day.

I wonder if they have a men only beach too.

Yes, there is one in Iran. All of their beaches are Male/Female specific.

I was a guard, some of the best I've known were ladies. This pisses-me-right-off.

I did the guard course, I don't think I was that bad comparing to boys! anyway, sometimes on some italian beaches I desired a calm place, with no screaming children in primis, and why not, no men playing their macho-macho role, but the lifeguard thing really pissed me off, so they won't see me!

well I think it's a double standard if they don't have a men only beach also. not very progressive.

yep... it would be desert... is no question of rights or being respectful to both genders, no man would go on a only-man beach, they would think of it as boring and ambiguous (at least here in Italy

)! a woman that goes to the pink beach would think of it as quiet and as a no-prey-day!

Kinda' like every town has a Curves but every time someone starts a men's only gem some bitch sues them?
Happens all the time here.
Makes me sick.
Same for men's clubs.
Private means private, you make your own rules.

Rob, Rob...don't you know that men, especially Caucasian, Protestant men, can only discriminate...not be discriminated against.

Its a rule. You could look it up.

I wouldn't go to the beach anyway, so it's a non-issue.

wolf no like beach. Occasionally tolerates beach for the sake of others.
