Table for 2?
TikToker Polska Babinks alleges she and a girlfriend were denied entry right into a Paris restaurant because they were showing an excessive amount of cleavage.
In a clip uploaded earlier this week and already viewed greater than 3.6 million times, Babinks and her friend walk right into a restaurant — only to be stopped by the male owner, who declares they’re not “dressed properly.”
“My friend Tootatis and I were prevented from entering this restaurant due to our cleavage,” Babinks wrote within the text placed on top of the video, as translated from French.
Babinks is wearing an all-pink ensemble with a low-cut crop top and mini-skirt. Her friend is in a good black shirt and pants with red ribbons tied round her knees, elbows and wrists.
The content creator goes forwards and backwards in French with the owner for many of the video.
“A neckline = No restaurants,” Babinks captioned the video, per the interpretation.
The incident sparked debate each within the comment section and amongst French public figures, a lot of whom sided with the restaurant owner, based on Every day Mail.
“Where’s the scandal? He doesn’t want bare b**bs in his restaurant,” TV host Benjamin Castaldi wrote.
“This will not be a feminist struggle! Only a few women see themselves in you,” columnist Danielle Moreau said.
Producer Guillaume Genton said he has rarely seen “human beings as silly” because the influencer and her friend.
“Congrats to the manager for his cool temper,” one user commented on Babinks’ video.
“It’s funny, because the release of this video, this restaurateur has had plenty of success. And that’s good,” one other noted.
“It’s not a nightclub it’s a restaurant it’s totally normal that he doesn’t accept it’s not a striptease bar,” one other sided with the owner.
“Legally a restaurant has the precise to refuse a customer if he doesn’t respect the inner rules of the establishment,” one other said.
