Topless protesters take on elite Davos forum
2013-01-27
[SUNHERALD] Three women angry over sexism and male domination of the world economy
The titty thing seems to be Femen's schtick.
ripped off their shirts and tried to force their way into a gathering of corporate elites in a Swiss resort.
So all of three womyn show up and they make headlines because they take their shirts off. So we have an entire story dedicated to a total of six boobies.
Three boobies, actually. And six breasts.
Predictably, they failed. The ubiquitous and huge security force policing the World Economic Forum in Davos carried the women away, kicking and screaming.
"Corporal Renaud, carry the milk duds away!"
"But, sir! They're kicking and screaming!"
"Ignore it, Corporal. It's probably just the cold!"
The women, from Ukrainian feminist activist group Femen, scaled a fence and set off pink flares in the protest Saturday. Their chests were painted with "SOS Davos," as they sought to call attention to poverty of women around the world.
"Our titties represent the poverty of womyn around the world!"
Critics of the Davos forum say the business and political leaders at the gathering spend too little time doing concrete things to solve the world's problems and help the needy.
Luckily for the rest of mankind.

#7  Regarding naked Liberian grandmothers. Shucks, all I have to do to convince my family to get moving is to threaten to strip naked-as-an-egg and start singing....

#6  That depends on the context. It being very bad luck to see your grandmother naked, Liberian women were able to use the threat of disrobing to good effect at a stalled peace conference.

#5  If your cause requires nudity to generate publicity you probably need to re-think your cause.

#4  If any guys (outside of California) got nekkid to protest anything they would most likely find themselves arrested and at worst listed as a sex offender. After awhile, the getting nekkid protests get a little boring.

#2  Well, here's hoping they got some beads for their trouble.

#1  Noone's stopping women setting up businesses except women.

In fact in the sexist U.K. women get all sorts of extra help denied to those with a penis (according to PoMo fools, gender is a choice so my business applies anyway just to be annoying).
