There is a woman who works out at my “Y” who wears a similar outfit, except that it has a ankle-length skirt - I think she’s a orthodox Jew. IMO, it’s her business and no one else’s.

As long as it’s not a problem with the pool equipment, let them wear anything they want. It’s the pool owner that should be deciding that anyway.

I would, however, have a problem with the pool not allowing others in the pool at the same time. Many of these women muslims don’t want men allowed in the pool area when they swim.

This is just another round of "the camel's nose under the tent".

Pretty soon the Muslims will be insisting on "women only" hours for the pools. Either that, or they will insist all women to be so "modestly" dressed instead.

This isn't the end of the demands. It is only the beginning.

From what I’ve seen of these people, I wouldn’t care if they covered themselves entirely with a plastic bag. I wouldn’t get in the same pool with them. Reason? The ones I’ve seen appear to be “less than sanitary.”
