The Bavarian dirndl ban, proposed by EU nanny-state
bureaucrats to keep beer-hall waitresses from being exposed to “optical
radiation,” has been forestalled. As one Bavarian official said:

“The
dirndl is an integral part of Bavarian culture and joy of living — a
culture that many are jealous of,” said Frank-Ulrich John, the
spokesperson for the Bavarian Association of Hotels and Inns.

“I have spoken with many servers, and I have never heard that a sunburn in the cleavage area has been a problem,” John said.

Now,
maybe Germans, or at least their Bavarian citizens, will begin
rethinking giving all that power to desk jockeys in Brussels.
