Yesterday in my newspaper I saw a young British woman dressed lol in one of these latest fashion 'string bikinis'.

Which pretty much tells us about your taste in "news" papers.

Sunday Telegraph.
Nothing wrong with the newspaper.
How can one take their family to the beach when confronted by string swimwear.

Why is string swimwear a problem at the beach, but not in the paper?

Or are you suggesting it is okay for you to go to the beach, just not your family?

You think it's a problem for Mrs. Bambi to see such women?!

I'd prefer it hadn't been in the paper, supposed family-friendly paper.
People wanting to be at the public beach 'naked', should instead attend the legal nude beach or unofficial nude beach, which we have.
Nothing of this nature is a problem for mrs bambu, she more shows concern for what such behaviour could mean for women and girls who might become sex crime victims of men because of it.

Me, I'm offended by the presence of women and girls [yes, now teen girls under 18 are wearing this] 'undressed' in such a manner around me.
I should be able to go to the beach, anywhere in society without having to walk around looking at the ground 24/7 lest I be accused of leering[a crime], being a predator, pervert, creepy etc.

Several weeks ago, afternoon, while sitting at a table by myself on a beach promenade [walk down steps to the beach] while mrs bambu had an appointment nearby...I having purchased a drink, ice cream, and chocolate...was enjoying the view of the water and horizon, and listening to buskers singing cool music across the road.
Sunny day, cool sea breeze, ice cream, chocolate, drink, in the shade of trees.

When my paradise was suddenly shattered by the appearance from behind me of a small group of schoolkids, and in the group standing right in front of me to the side of my table a girl about 16 basically naked at the back. They stood there surveying the ocean etc....seeming not in any hurry to move along.
I, dressed in shorts, shirt, cap. sunglasses.
I had to move.
I cursed them under my breath as I moved further along the promenade to another table, and struck up a conversation with a seagull.
Not long after, the teen group came wandering along and stopped, where I was.
I cursed them again.
I had to move again....and went and sat on a seat in the sun back from where they had come.
They sauntered off along the promenade to the other end of the beach.

There are cameras everywhere today.
Photo of old, White, heterosexual, male, 'lurking' around the beach, not swimming, cap, sunglasses, and sitting right behind a 'naked' 16 yr old girl...would make for a nice ammunition photo for the "all men are predators and perverts" lot.

https://www.cnn.com/2019/11/08/opinions/anti-semitism-kristallnacht-kantor/index.html

What needs to be done about anti-semitism, in one writer's eyes.

I find it very discouraging.

Thoughts?

Guns!
Seriously, in America Jews need to carry guns, and plenty of them, ready to fire at a moment's notice.
They also need to live, work, socialise in fortresses.
Absolute security protects absolutely.

The guy who committed the latest attack on them, with the machete, "has a history of mental illness and is not aligned with any hate group" according to my radio news today.

Maybe blend in...wear nothing in public to indicate 'race/religion'. Take special attire to private gatherings and change there.

Seems to me that there is a perception that Jewish people are rich, and control everything...which seems to evoke envy and blame.

2nd that.

Interesting that Obama held MAM status during the first two years of another President's term. 

Former first lady, secretary of state and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton held the Most Admired Woman title from 2002 to 2017.   Sixteen years.

DEFIANCE

Jews escaping, only made possible by guns...handguns, rifles, machine guns.
They [including women] learnt to shoot.
Fought back.
Guns are great, for self defence.

Expect the unexpected...a machete-wielding psycho could appear at any moment to slash and kill.
Or a truckload of terrorists with guns.
Or 3 terrorists in a van.
Or 6 terrorists on foot with sweet smiles and big guns under their coats.
Or 7 women in a care group with handguns in their jackets.
Gotta be ready 24/7.

I offer this, so Bambu can learn to enjoy the female form in a bikini without paranoia about felonious leering.   (I mean the female is in the bikini, not Bambu)

Really, man, it's okay to look and take delight in youth and beauty.    It's possible to enjoy "scenery" without acting on it and becoming a perv.

How’d that help her Presidential bid?

"Cora Templeton Massingale", feminists' leader [Lee Remick] to the 'Colonel' [Burt Lancaster]

"The sight of a gentleman taking his bath is not foreign to a woman who's been widowed twice".

The sight of bikini clad females is not foreign to man aged 70+.
The sight of naked females is not foreign to a man who's been married for 50 years and watched Hollywood movies for the same amount of time.
String bikinis on public beaches and on the promenades of public beaches is a whole new deal.

Looks like I'm destined to spend my future staring at the ground whenever I leave my home...or only raising the peak of my cap far enough to see a few steps in front of me.
And not able to go to the beach promenade anymore, instead having to sit in the hot car and look at the garbage bins in the carpark.

I could be brave and take them all on...like mrs bambu does...but it's totally different for a man.

"What are YOU looking at?"
mrs b..."I'm just wondering where the rest of your clothes are".

Women can get away with it, men cannot.

"With all the fire engines and all that ... my husband and I decided to get ready and start packing a few important things in the car," she said.
Ms Butera said she had packed passports and photos into her car and was preparing to head to her sister's house to get away from the bushfire.

Do you ever leave your home?

Not very often these days.
Everywhere I go there's 'trouble'.
I like my home in the retirement complex.
I have a nice lady and a nice dog for company.
I can and do travel the world on my tv...inexpensive, nice weather usually, no crowds to battle, no miles to walk.
