Trending on Twitter with the hashtag #tetazo (Explore, as far as I’m aware), the Argentinian topless protest continues to gather pace.

“In many places, when a woman reports gender violence, they don’t listen, but when a woman shows her breasts they send so many police,” said Grace Prounesti Piquet, a 33-year-old photographer with the words “The breast is not a crime” painted in pink on her back. “It’s a shame.”

The leftist politician Vilma Ripoll said, “All people want to see tits on television. The real ones bother you.”

As far as I’m aware, a National Strike by women is planned for Argentina in March, so it will be interesting to see if this current protest becomes linked into a more general strike as the women of Argentina seek to overturn unequal and sometimes patriarchal attitudes.

Not much St Valentine’s enthusiasm in this house, or on this blog, but there’s some nice poses from EniiPose, all free with various free group tags (their in house group, SLF&O and Third Life).

In the top one, Jim’s feeding me strawberries for St. Valentine’s Day. In the middle, there’s a nice ‘nature’ pose where I’m feeding a bird some berries -very apt for those of use who feel that nature conservation should be part of the naturist’s lot- and finally, I’m Jim’s ‘funky monkey’, legs wrapped round him.
