Topless Protesters of Ukraine
« on: November 21, 2010, 12:58:50 PM »
I've noticed Femen ladies protesting topless lately in the news.  Is this a gowing trend?  Seems to have helped the Iranian girl sentenced to stoning.

That Iranian cop seems happy to arrest her.

Lately, there is an influx of topless protests in Ukraine. I do not understand why these women think that the shaking of their tits is the only effective way to draw public attention to a problem. Why they feel it is necessary to give up their dignity in fight against injustice.   Is it the deficit education, dispair, or stupidity that compels them to protest this way?   ??? :-\ ???

If you don't understand something, why the other person is the idiot?

Well , I guess you don't like to see topless women in public .
I wish it would catch on around here  , I would not complain like you are .

Are you certain they are trying to sell sex, not their ideology?  ;D
If they try to sell sex, then pushing their tits in faces of buyers may help them to attain their goals. However, if their purpose is to persuade the public that the protester's reasoning is more sensible and deserving thorough consideration, then they have chosen a wrong method.   It is difficult to take seriously arguments of the people who are driven to distraction, don't you think so?

vwrw,  I'm not 100% sure but I think it's about hitting the news/media cycles and I think they (Femen) are deadly serious about their agenda--womens rights.  If they protested with their tops on they would get scant media attention and just be a few nameless protesters.  In this way they are drawing much more attention to the plight of this Iranian woman than normal protesting would get.  Topless girls protesting will make the news anyday.

Only another excuse for women to shake.  What's next when the bra-off no longer draws the eye?
