The protesters rallied against remarks made by Ian Grace, a former Gold Coast Volunteer Of The Year award winner, who said women and girls who wear G-strings are "cheapening themselves".
I mean, yeah women are being sexualised. But they are also well within their rights to be confident and proud of their bodies. Last comment had it right - there is a wider issue, but a bikini ban would never address it.
We had a great advert on a while ago that did this better - togs, togs, undies. Think it was an ice cream ad?
Women are gonna be sexualised regardless, I suspect. Wherever the line is drawn, give it a generation or two and men and WLWs will be all about women wearing one step below that line.

Seems pretty clear from Grace’s statements that he’s the one objectifying these women.
Seems to me he needs to take a long look at his own thoughts and reorder them before demanding others accede to his demands.
