Spurred and stung by a Police Officer‘s statement in Canada ‘if people want to be safe from rape ,let them not dress as a slut’ . some women have come out on the street with revealing and provoking dress/undress to express their Freedom to Dress.
Poor Police officer, who might be thinking of his daughter ,sister!
Now the Slutwalk has come to Bangalore.
If some want to dress the way that would arouse men,it is welcome.
Men should welcome it.
If some one wants to invite men, let them and face the consequences.
Why should the society crib about it?
True.clothes don’t rape,but it invite men.
I saw another image in Times of India dated 7Dec where it displays a girl in short pants with a placard
‘Believe it or not!
My short skirt has NOTHING
To Deal with you’
Then for whom?
I wish these people could show these photos and their radical thoughts to their children and grandchildren in future.
Some Freedom and some feminism!

Local activists’ desire to keep pace with their global counterparts received a setback on Sunday: SlutWalk Bangalore was called off after police withdrew permission to the event in the wake of threats from unidentified right-wing groups, including a women’s outfit, to disrupt it.
Late Saturday evening, a person, claiming to be speaking on behalf of the women’s group, threatened the organizers that “whoever takes part in the SlutWalk would be beaten up with brooms”. Around 7.30pm, police informed the organizers that the permission for the event had been withheld. This was confirmed in writing a couple of hours later, stating the permission has been “withdrawn for security reasons”.
