Cover these breasts I shall not see

The following of the quote goes “Through such objects, souls are hurt and it attracts guilty thoughts.”
The Tartuffe, by Moliere, act 3 scene 2.
Many people should read this play from the French repertoire.
They would teach a lot to all those old conservative people feminists are facing.
Still, we remain on the same stage and this replica is very accurate nowadays.
Just take a look at how the FEMEN movement is treated: Alain Soral even called them “Ukrainian whores”. Let us put things back where they belong...

When it comes to mentioning the objectifying of women in advertising, or them being over sexualised, none debates their nudity and the way women and their body are used.
It doesn’t shock anyone.
Whereas when it is about a protesting political movement that points out men domination over women, we hear many voices from everywhere. They are acting as frightening virgins in front of nudity when it stands for a political message.
We hear them ask “since when do women earn their freedom by showing their breasts?”

Women’s Forum 2009 : (Re) prendre la main

Le Women’s Forum Global Meeting a tenu sa 5ème édition du 15 au 17 octobre dernier à Deauville. Cette rencontre, à l’initiative de Aude Zeinseniss de Thuin, présidente et fondatrice (voir interview ci-contre) réunit tous les ans, environ un millier de participants, venus de 75 pays, pour, selon les mots de la présidente, « évoquer les problèmes du moment » avec en guest star, cette année, une délégation du Moyen Orient après la Chine et l’Inde les deux années précédentes.

Les participants sont surtout des participantes car malgré la volonté des organisateurs la présence des hommes reste encore discrète.

Un programme ambitieux propose aux participantes, chefs d’entreprises, militantes des droits de l’homme, journalistes,… de s’attaquer à la crise et aux problématiques d’environnement. Cette année la conviction des organisateurs et d’une grande majorité d’intervenants est que les femmes sont particulièrement porteuses d’avenir et l’une des solutions à la crise.
