An illustration posted by artist La Sauvage Jaune (@LaSauvageJaune) commenting on the controversial burkini ban is going viral because of its loaded message on women's fashion.
"The Lottery of Indecency" shows the figure of a woman, half mostly covered and the other half mostly bare. Comments surrounding the woman pick apart what is perceived as wrong with each look.
Comments like "undress yourself" pointed at a burkini next to a topless figure and "cover that up" show how cultures around the world differ on the meaning of modesty.
The illustration points out other conflicting messages women often hear, such as "you look like a whore with makeup" but "you’re neglecting yourself" if you don’t wear makeup.
So the key here is the occasion, where and when. On the beach with bikini and in the worship place with a burka. Just a thought.
