Arrivederci Uomini

RICCIONE, Italy - Italian women, tired of unwanted advances and stares while sunbathing on the beach, now have their own exclusive stretch of sand on the Adriatic coast...children are also made unwelcome.
With some men looking on from outside the perimeter, women customers do aerobics, sports and put sun cream on each other.
"For many women who want to sunbathe topless, for instance, it's a great plus not to have men around, because often men won't go away and stare insistently", said Italian beachgoer Giulia Martini.

But the men were not impressed.
"I think this is very stupid. Men and women should always be mixed. Otherwise, what are we on this planet for?" said Italian beachgoer Franco Stroppiani.
