1. I wear those baggy swimming shorts, how are they not allowed? What kind of danger do they impose?

2. Oh no, won’t somebody please think of the children!

3. O shit, here we go again

4. Rule of thumb, when doing something that isn’t allowed, at least try to do so in an unnoticeable way. Going with full clothing (non swimming clothes to be precise) into a public swimming pool is pretty noticeable.

5. What’s the problem? It’s just as hygienic in my eyes as those lose shorts men wear. If it’s not allowed, the lifesavers could have mentioned something then and there. No. Let’s make photos and make this a whole political issue

6. Who cares what people wear if it’s swimwear? It’s not like they’re holding a public neutral office.

   Edit: thought it was a burkini, it wasn’t

7. This is so effing stupid

8. What is their fucking problem? I don’t understand how they can be so entitled to just think the rules don’t apply to them?
   Do we owe them anything?

   Of course, the personnel had reacted they would have been a protest at the swimming pool about how Muslim women aren’t allowed to accompany their kids at the poolside.

   Already seen it play out at my local pool. Problem for them in Brussels, the employee are often Muslim so they pipe down.

9. Were they vaccinated?

10. Yeah, wearing your street clothes in a swimming pool is disgusting. Not showering before entering the pool is disgusting. What’s so hard about basic rules and hygiene?

11. How did they get in like that in the first place…
    They should be banned, sending a message to the community it really is not ok. They don’t agree? They don’t swim, it’s that easy.

12. Nog belangerijk! Wie gaat er nu voor zijn plezier gaan zwemmen?
