Spannungsfeld Stoff: Wie darf frau baden?

Decades after bathing with long dresses in opaque board covers, there are still arguments about how much fabric women should wear in and around the water.
In 2013, Filiz Acar-Chebli from Constance was not allowed to enter the indoor pool in her full-body swimsuit. The local councillor
Bärbel Altendorf-Jehle failed in 2023 with her demand that women in Freudenstadt should be allowed to swim
be allowed to swim "topless" just like men. Filiz Acar-Chebli, Bärbel Altendorf-Jehle and exhibition curator
Tamara Buzdumovic discuss dress codes for women and who makes them and for what reason: "society
"society", "morality" or men who want to control women's bodies?

Katrin Kleinbrahm will moderate.

A cooperation with the Landeszentrale für politische Bildung Baden-Württemberg.

The event is part of the program accompanying the large special exhibition "Free Swimming. Together?".
Who is allowed to swim? And who is not? What causes trouble among swimmers? Society is reflected in the pool. A wide variety of people with different lifestyles and moral concepts meet in public pools - sometimes more and sometimes less harmoniously.
