FEMEN Breast Protest Pokes Fun at Azarov




Hardly a week passes by without FEMEN doing boobs and circuses.


This week, they target PM Azarov's broken Ukrainian, rampant misgovernment and outrageous sexism.


Specifically, they elaborate on the PM’s hilariously mangled version of the Ukrainian word for bloodsuckers that he uttered last week in a finger-pointing speech.




He should have said кровососи (krovososy) but came out with кровосісі (krovosisi), which sounds like bloody titties.


FEMEN, in turn, seized the opportunity to produce a collection of mock body art, enshrouded in feminine mystique.

And long may these protests continue!

Taras, there's a very good chance these politicians (e.g., Azarov, Yanukovych) have learned precisely how to provoke another entertaining FEMEN demonstration.

Anatoly,

Hopefully, they'll last longer that this government:)


John,

Now that Yanukovych plans to raise women’s retirement age to 65, FEMEN may not be the only kids on the protest block:)
