Women's rights!

The SlutWalk protest marches began on April 3, 2011, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with subsequent rallies occurring in the United States, and rallies planned in Europe, Australia, and the Middle East. Participants protest against explaining or excusing rape by referring to any aspect of a woman's appearance. The rallies began when Constable Michael Sanguinetti, a Toronto Police officer, suggested that to remain safe, "women should avoid dressing like sluts." The protest takes the form of a march, mainly by young women, where some dress like "sluts". There are also speaker meetings and workshops. Critics say that this approach is an example of women defining their sexuality on male terms.
