Ukrainian feminists go over the top

[claud3]

The militant Ukrainian feminists who protest topless have urged models across the world “not to go to brothels". The activists showed up at Milan Fashion Week protesting against the use of anorexic models in fashion industry.
Minutes before the beginning of the Versace show, the semi-naked activists of the Femen group appeared with "Fashion = Fascism" and "Anorexia" handwritten in black marker over their bare chests.

“Each year, the grinding plates of the fashion business mill hundreds of thousands of girls,” the Ukrainian activists wrote in their blog.

“Promoting the glitz and riches of a modelling career they impose false ideals on women, provoking real illnesses. Made a fool of by fashion propaganda, frustrated models regularly join the ranks of sex industry workers and psychiatric patients,”

members of the Kiev-based movement, added.

This i believe in, not because breasts sell the argument...Its because they are standing up for womens rights

Dude, you can't post topless girls on here. I removed the images and added a disclaimer to the link.

Boobs, Sweet.

By "over the top," they mean "the tops are off"

[keefy]

Some of the models are indeed too thin.

I'm at work but I'll give it a watch. Bring on the boobies. Feminists? Please...

[Vulgotha]

I notice that these girls are all fairly attractive, skinny and well proportioned themselves.

Odd that they protest by running around parading their bodies in such a manner. I smell hypocrisy.

again, seeing feminists doing what they do best "self interest" this has nothing to do with actually helping those woman, it has all to do with seeing it once and being bothered by it. Honestly, every feminist could jump off a billion ft cliff and I wouldn't give a crap about them, at all. Anti-woman and anti-man morons parading around looking like a bunch of flakes. Feminism = Severe Neurological Disorder. (SND) Severe Neurological Disorder. This disorder actually spreads to other women o.O very severe indeed.

My girlfriend is a feminist.

I make fun of her all the time though. We have funny arguments.

Do they end in her making you a sammich?

I find that many feminists are little more than depleted neuron quarries. You have my sympathies.

[DreDayDetox]

When I read over the top, I thought they were also extremists going around chopping men's dicks off..maybe they were just imagining that.

She likes to cook, but it usually just ends in sex.

The only way it affects me is when I don't have to spend money on her, since we split everything. No sympathy needed.

[Vulgotha]

I should clarify that I'm not meaning to literally insult your girlfriend, I'm sure she's a great person (evidenced by the fact that you're dating her as I deem you to be a very good person). Just me espousing my general dislike of the neo-feminist movement lol.

Man, get me one of those. That's not a feminist, that's a frickin' dream.

[HellsJester]

Nevermind

[Funeralfog]

[BoyBettaKnow]

Who left the kitchen door open?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

ROFL the dude in the second picture is like "hey you missed a bit, lemme grab my pen..."

No hard feelings man. I don't like feminism either lol. But she's basically just concerned with gender equality and doesn't hate all men, like some other feminists do.

Man, get me one of those. That's not a feminist, that's a frickin' dream.

Yeah, she's pretty awesome.

[MxB-One]

I still think these kinds of actions wont help at all, how about starting an information site for young models? or teens? Hey whatya know, even the news are full of crap, common sense comes from proper information and discussion, i bet we all learn something from talking right here even.

Best way to end an argument.

LOL@ the guy taking cellphone pics.

You seem to be confusing extreme feminism with general feminist ideas. It's like comparing everybody on the right of politics to Hitler.

See above although at least you identified a particular stage of feminism.

[btbam]

i'm afraid they didn't do enough. If only they had done something significant to get people attention, like a nice slogan or a sternly worded letter.

Actually I find my post to be entirely accurate. I specified "Neo-Feminism", furthermore it doesn't take a political scientist to figure out what I meant even if I hadn't.

Neo-Feminist ideals, which are more broadly associated to be of the 'extreme' variety vs traditional feminism, are repugnant to me in modern society.
