England footie fans to be targeted by Euro 2012 topless demos

TOPLESS activists are threatening to target English footie fans attracted by Ukraine’s sex industry during Euro 2012.


Inna Shevchenko, 21, and her radical feminist comrades in women’s rights group Femen claim lusty lads heading over for the tournament could make "a bordello out of Ukraine".

They have vowed to head them off by attacking EVERY match.

Inna warned: “English fans need to know that if they try to mess with Ukrainian women then we will try to mess with them.

“The sex industry exploits women who are so poor and often uneducated.

“That is why we are going to try to attack every match.”

The daring group – which has around 300 members - plans demos at England’s clashes with Sweden in capital Kiev on June 15 and Ukraine in Donetsk on June 19 as well as other fixtures.

In another stunt, we told this week how a topless pair posed half naked with the Euro 2012 trophy in a surprise protest in Kiev. Femen pulled a similar stunt earlier in the month.



Summary:
This article is about the upcoming football tournament organized in Ukraine. Everybody knows that thousands and thousands of fans are coming to Ukraine to support their country. One other aspect of all these (most of the time) men that are coming is that they drink much and that they are going to abuse women in Ukraine or misbehave. The girls who live in Ukraine have put together an activist group called: ‘Femen’. They want to avoid Ukraine becoming a ‘bordello’. Their actions consist of posing topless with messages that show their opinion. They hope that they can warn the men that are coming to their country to not make a mess of their country. ( 115)

Review:
In my opinion I think it is good to warn the English men who are going to visit Ukraine. Without those English fans coming, women are already abused and the people who visit Ukraine this summer must not believe that they are allowed to do so either. The women who gathered in ‘Femen’ are powerful and strong women with an opinion that should be known. I believe in feminism as well, and men in England get drunk very easily so they must be warned.

  1. Eastern European countries. I love them beautiful woman, cheap beer and the weather is awesome. The fact that the European championships will be held in Ukraine is awesome. I don't get it why people make a fuss about the abuse of women in Ukraine. Most women in Eastern European countries would love a Western husband and do anything to get one. They should see this as a golden opportunity instead of putting together these feministic groups.
