Hi Sootickle.
I have big problems with people telling other's what they can and cannot do with their own bodies/clothes. Whether Cope's statement "disputing the right to indulge in such irrational lifestyles is not Racist, but merely Creedist?" is well thought out or not:
"disputing the right to indulge in irrational lifestyles" could apply to pretty much anyone you choose not to agree with. Any woman of Islam could dispute Mr Cope's right to wear daffy duck shorts or publish pictures of his wife's breasticles in antiquarian books. So it's all hot air from Cope, unless he wants to move the step from "disputing rights" to "removing rights"
