I have said that all Feminists are, well, bitter and are not, shall we say, pleasing to the eyes, or the ears either. While this is true, there are exceptions, like the Ukrainian feminist group “Femen,” who staged a topless protest in front of the Saudi embassy in Kiev last month as Stacy McCain found
See, if more Feminists in America looked like that and used similar methods, we just might pay attention. Especially if they actually protested for worthwhile causes, like equality for Saudi women. Of course, as Stacy reminds us, we likely would not like the results of “Topless Feminut” protests
I hesitate to encourage American feminists to emulate their example because, unlike the Ukrainians, the women’s movement in this country does not include anyone we’d like to see naked.
Yes, sad but true.
The only real problem with FEMEN was that they got their start protesting the sexual tourism industry in the Ukraine and I don’t think half naked babes are the best way of reducing that industry…
