Recently, Grenoble, a city in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of southeastern France, has moved to allow the "burkini," women's swimwear that only leaves the face, hands, and feet uncovered, in public swimming pools. In the weeks before the Grenoble council voted to allow burkinis in public open-air pools, the city's mayor Eric Piolle was met by fierce resistance after tabling the motion. Piolle proposes to let people dress "how they like" at outdoor pools, including allowing women to be topless. Most of France's public pools have strict swimwear policies, such as requiring men to wear tight-fit racing trunks instead of longer swim shorts. Right-wing politicians in France believe that "burkini," is a form of Islamism. Laurent Wauquiez, head of the Regional Council of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, threatened to pull funding from the town by stating, "Not a cent of regional money will finance your submission to Islamism." Mayor Piolle maintains that this is merely a "feminist" choice to let people swim however they feel most comfortable.
