KIEV, Ukraine — How to protest domestic violence, corruption and a visit by Russia's Vladimir Putin? Ukraine's answer: Take off your bra!

A group of young activists is gaining popularity here for staging topless protests that involve sexually charged gestures, obscene slogans and scuffles with security guards and police. Often, the point seems to be just getting naked.

Born out of a girls' pajama party two years ago, the group has turned into a popular movement"

pillow fights?

mud wrestling?

Oil wrestling?
"If sexuality is used to sell cars and cookies, why not use it for social and political projects,"

Now this is something I could get on board with. I don't even care the cause. Maybe Sara Palin could get more of the Democrats on her side if she just went around topless and in a g-string?

Personally  " I like to poll them all "

Yes, they're not hard to look at.



They've got a serious point to make though.

Interesting long interview with their leader: FEMEN’s Anna Gutsol on sex tourism and short skirts in Ukraine

Anna: FEMEN is based on the idea that girls need to be active participants in society. And by “active,” I don’t just mean “active enough to land themselves husbands.” We want more women to develop a social consciousness. We’re also against the idea of sex tourism and the sex industry in general in Ukraine. And we want to package our message in a way that’s going to be appealing to young Ukrainian women. Look around you, nobody wants to be a Girl Scout here.

Natalia: Your image is definitely not Girl Scout-esque. Do you get criticized for your provocative social protests?

Anna: Of course. People sneer at us all the time: “You’re against the sex industry, but you are all dressing like sex-workers.” But Ukrainian sex-workers by and large don’t own their own bodies. That’s not how it works with us. When one of our girls went topless on Independence Square, she was doing it as a radical act. And it gets people talking. Our sexy image causes debate. You need to have debate if you are ever to move forward. So many activists have no idea how to engage the media and the public. They’re dour, uninteresting. FEMEN is the opposite of that.
