Been there, done that

"......Justifying the move, Buonanno added: "Imagine a Western woman bathing in a bikini in a Muslim country. The consequences could be decapitation, prison or deportation. We are merely prohibiting the use of the burqini."......."

While working in the KMOD compound in Kuwait we were staying at the Sports Center - which had a pool - right next to the buiding and the prayer room with full glass windows overlooking the pool.

The Air Force, staying out at the Airport, found out about the pool and one day without asking or telling anybody ran over a bus load of swimmers that included some females with very small swim suits. They unloaded right at prayer time.

The Company Commander drank a lot of tea the next few days.
