I went swimming at a pool in France, there was only one changing room and no booths. the French people just whipped their clothes off, while me and the future Mrs Plumb struggled to keep our English reserve with copious use of towels. Apparently she saw it as an ordeal but I think the French had the better attitude.
As I remember the french were also keen on having open boarders and invited a butt load of unvetted refugees in their country, and we can see how that worked out..
Just because it is done here or there does not mean it is a sound or even a culturally adaptable thing to do.
I fail to see the connection between having a healthy view on the body and the governments refugee policy. Its like saying how much you hate the Nazi idea of jew killing and someone saying "well they made the trains run on time" the two things are unconnected.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
