ALT1: ... that the first actions of the Surf Bathing Association of New South Wales was a protest against male bathers.
A bathing association "protesting against male bathers" is funny/odd. John Vandenberg (chat) 11:31, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
Disagree with this alternate hook because "against male bathers" sounds like the protestors wanted men off the beach, whereas in fact, the protestors were men who wanted to stay ON the beach. The protests were ones not AGAINST males but rather BY (and on behalf of), male bathers. Whiteghost.ink (talk) 13:15, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
