ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC ?!!?!?
Well, doesn't it show how the burka thing is much BS ?!!?!?
A well deserved 'point & Laugh' at this most ridiculous & misogynistic piece of rag !!!

As far as I know, it's not sanctioned at all in the Quran !!!

It raises the very important issue that women in Burqas need to be aware of, namely that they will be mistaken for seats on public transport and fought over by manspreaders.

Blimey, you have to look a few times to realise they are bus seats and not women in burqas.

It's the quality of the photograph, not your eyesight. If you look closely you can see they are bus seats, in any case no two people would be sitting in the exactly the same position & if a few were together they'd be chatting, moving their heads don'tyou think?

Apart from the mass murderer Breivik I didn't realise there was so much hate - disguised as piss taking in this case - in Norway, "Fatherland" indeed. Makes me think UK's not so bad.

(Rhiannon i hadn't heard of manspreaders before  :D.)

That reminds me, my husband and I are well overdue for our visit to Specsavers, our optician of choice.

At least Christian priests can't be confused with bus seats ..... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-east-wales-40792962

I saw that on MSM when I logged out of Outlook! Funny. I once went out to dinner with friends and on a nearby table were a lot of girls, hen do. Next to them was a table full of Catholic priests!  Really funny, the girls had photographs taken with them. Lovely evening.

Am I alone in finding the link ("umbrellas"), unfunny? I have a thing about not taking the mick out of people whose culture is different to mine. Seen so much of it and it upsets me.
