Gagged In Protest

Another picture lacking in backstory. This cute lady has the look of a celebrity about her, and if you study the image she’s sitting in a car on a public street. This looks to me like one of those “appear in public with our mouths taped shut to protest the censorship of fill-in-the-blank” scenarios:

Thanks to Bondage Blog for the photo. By now you know the drill, write in if you know the story behind the picture!

Nude Vegan Streaker Dude

No background for this picture, alas, although the URL on the nude guy’s back appears to be for the PETA spinoff vegan site goveg.com:

Anybody know date and place and details?

Naked Beggar Not Real

Pieter from South Africa writes to let us know that this picture is, as suspected, not real. He says it’s from a South African movie made by Leon Schuster – the beggar on the left in the picture. Thanks Pieter for the straight dope!

Fucking For Virginity

Here’s a photo which makes up for its lack of nudity by its earthy message: “Bombing for Peace is Like Fucking For Virginity.”

The picture has a certain staged artistry about it, but it’s amusing for all that.

More Fetching Nude Fox Hunters

Presumably from the same protest as this photo, we have two lovely nude British ladies in body paint that looks like fetching riding costumes:

Unhappiness With Our Concept

Obviously NakedProtesters.com does not agree with many of the sentiments in the letter that follows. In our view sexuality is in the eye of the beholder. If someone shares their nudity with the world in an effort to get attention, they can’t complain when the observers say “Hey, that’s sexy!” (Or rather, they can complain, being free people; but they should expect to be laughed at for it.) Furthermore, we utterly reject the suggestion that nudity, or celebration of it in any form, including this one, is degrading to anyone or encourages “rape and other forms of criminal behavior.”

Having said all that, here’s a letter we recently got:

I checked out your web-page as I am a subscriber to the Bodyfreedom.org newsgroup.

As I am interested in helping social and public nudity gain some social credibility, I do not feel that having links to commercial porn sites gives you the right idea about nude demonstrations.

Most social activists (particularly the women), although they are not prudes or anti-sex, do not like pornography as they feel that it is degrading to men and women as well as encouraging rape and other forms of criminal behaviour.

Bodyfreedom is about helping to restructure social and political attitudes to help create a more understanding, just, and honest human race.

It is not about promoting sexual vilification or promiscuous sex, and we have a hard enough time trying to convince people that naturism and public nude recreation is not a perverted practice and is not about sex except in appropriate settings.

Naked And Bloody In Restraint Of Trade

Here’s a picture of some anti World Trade Organization protesters who stripped naked, poured fake blood on themselves, and cavorted on American flags. According to this article, the event took place in Sydney, Australia, in 2002. The lovely young ladies in question are identified as Anna Clark (19), Amy Minshull (22), and Anne-Lise Ahfat (18).

Has anybody got a bigger better picture of this event? I’m sure the readership would enjoy a closer look at these girls.

European Anti-fur Street Nudity

We are deeply indebted to Bas, who very kindly sent along these photographs he took of anti-fur protesters in Antwerp, Belgium. Bas reports that he took the photos on October 4, 2003. These attractive folks were shouting “Liever naakt dan in bond!” which means “I prefer naked over fur!”
