Thread: ФЕМЕН / FEMEN Group protests - what do you think?

I think they should organise themselves a bit better and make sure that it's clear what they are protesting about.
The protest in Belarus seemed completely pointless and poorly executed.

But I wonder if there is any merit to their claim that the mafia is supporting Euro 2011.... and sex tourism to Ukraine.
I think that the view of some men on Russian speaking women (as we've seen even here on MR) is disgusting. But is stripping off really going that change that...

And although I saw some references about them protesting in Zurich I couldn't find out the reason behind it. I have spent quite a lot of time working there and did not notice any particular problems for women there.
Meanwhile, in Sweden there is a collective mass hysteria about pro-feminist initiatives. Despite being a woman I actually think it's gone too far, some of it is completely laughable, people have just lost all perspectives about this.

A dozen of political prisoners is no argument for you? People whose only "crime" was to take on the election race... I have nothing to comment over here.

As for "poorly executed", could you share your thoughts on how they could perform there better?
