The Naked Truth

Swiss performance artiste Milo Moiré protested naked in front the Kölner Dom
(Cologne Cathedral), carrying a sign which read "Respect us! We are not fair game even when naked:"

Unfortunately, Moiré's breasts are fair game for comment as she put them out there: Those are some of the worst implants I've ever seen. (Link for the prurient)

[added: note that the word "Freiwild" in German is translated as "fair game" in the hunting metaphor. Freiwild is obviously related to "free wild"].

The assaults appear to have been more widespread than previously thought, because authorities and the press where not in a reporting mood.

“You can indulge your righteous rage but the things it comes out of are pretty cheap. The trick is to make yourself an instrument of your own policy. Whether you like it or not, that's the highest effectiveness man has achieved.” ― Norman Mailer, The Naked and the Dead

Flashers get results. Abolitionist John Brown knew it.

Certain parts of Moiré will never moulder in the grave.

Wise move. She brought a lot of coverage to the issue, and she showed that she wouldn't be cowed. She's not going to lay back and wait for the leaders of her country to stand up for her rights.

Little pig, little pig, let me in.

Not by the blare of my din-y din din!

Moiré's ire is directed at the police (white male patriarchs) instead of the perps: Why weren't they there to protect the women, she whines.

Strip clubs are the intellectual forum where all deep social policy is forged, run up the pole, given a thorough rodgering, and than cheered-on or discarded.

The people who were there watching Milo Moiré, naked and carrying a sign, afterwards said: "What did she say? Did anyone see what the sign said?"

Had Moiré worn a merkel, she wouldn't have felt so naked.
