And leave the rest of the West behind.
Seriously, check out these pictures. (Via Glenn Reynolds, natch.)
They are all engaged in deliberate retaliatory provocation against religious bigots who want to stone a woman to death for posting naked pictures of herself (something which most Americans take for granted under the Second Amendment*):
Earlier today, members of Ukrainian feminist group Femen staged protests across Europe as they called for a “topless jihad.” The demonstrations were in support of a young Tunisian activist named Amina Tyler. Last month, Tyler posted naked images of herself online, with the words “I own my body; it’s not the source of anyone’s honor” written on her bare chest. The head of Tunisia’s “Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice,” reportedly called for Tyler to be stoned to death for her putatively obscene actions, lest they lead to an epidemic. Tyler has since gone quiet, leading some to fear for her safety. Below are images from Femen’s protests today in Sweden, Italy, Ukraine, Belgium, and France. A warning, nearly every photo depicts nudity, and most contain offensive language.
I like this one best:
It takes balls to do that in front of some uptight mosque.
Leave it to the Ukraine girls to show some balls!
Sure, they are in the figurative sense, but they’ve got more than most of the wimpy men in the West!
(They also seem to be the only women who understand what feminism is supposed to be about. Will N.O.W. support them?)
UPDATE: I’m glad I gave Bill Quick the giggles.
“God, Guns, and Girls?”
Hey, a friend once told me it was “God, Guns, and Gays” that drives modern American politics, but plug in whatever equation works. So long as you shoot straight!
I hasten to add that without the Second Amendment, what rights do we actually have?

Ah yes, the right to keep bare breasts. My favorite amendment!
Now that is a truly glorious attempt, even if it should fail.
Otter: “I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody’s part.”
I especially like Miss “Fuck”. Thanks for the pics.
My #2 son visits the Ukraine from time to time. Now I understand why.
“Will N.O.W. support them?” Probably not, but I will.
You GO, girls! 😀

And yes, they do understand what feminism is about. NOW. 😀 How about y’all support the periodic attempts by those of my sex to allow women to run around without shirts on – or alternatively to also require men to wear them? Fair is fair, after all. 😛
Oh, and yeah – women have courage – you needn’t make it into balls… Just try messing with a baby in front of its mother. ANY mammal, including us. You’ll get shredded, or she’ll die trying. (Yes, we are animals, too – G-D made us so, so complain to him if you don’t like it.)
