It is pretty sad.

Still the other posters are right that there are some sick people out there so the 6 year old should probably cover up.
They could get her one of those new burkinis.
They are different in France. It is not sad. Thank goodness men wear baggy board shorts and not speedos in America.

We don't have to be France. When America was great women and girls wore one piece suits and we did not have so many pedophiles at the pool. Time to get back there again.

A nut case sees the little girl-- and the fantasy starts -- HELL NO - I'm telling you what I know- KEEP your kids safe! since the internet allowed some much free porn from overseas- many men have lost it - they get crazy and then act on it-

And you really believe the French men are oblivious to top less women at the beach right?

If women really want men not to consider breasts as sexual parts of the body then by all means, let them be the first to start.

See, that is Canada. Here we have a thing called the Constitution, where we are all to be treated equally, right. WRONG!

Although our Supreme Court did determine in public, if a man can be topless, a woman can be too.
