Officials banned woman's use of the Islam-friendly suit at a local pool because of France's pool hygiene standards that say swimmers are not allowed in pools with baggy clothing, including surfer-style shorts.
The woman Carole said, "I think it's forbidden (in France) because it presents an image of the Muslim woman (and) they have prejudices against Muslims," she said by telephone. "They want women to be undressed."
