Topless Iranian communists protest hijabs in Stockholm
In Stockholm on
Sunday, Iranian female activists took off their tops in protest of the hijab
headscarf Islamic women must wear. Members of the Iranian Communist Party and
the Organization Against Violence on Women in Iran painted their bodies with
slogans like, "My nudity is my protest" and "No to hijab," following the pattern
set by the Ukrainian activist group FEMEN. FEMEN has become famous for
protesting sex tourism, international marriage agencies and other feminist
causes with topless protests.
