Religion has a tendency to dictate what women can and can’t do with their vaginas. No subject is quite so heated as abortion. A recent push in Ukraine by the Christian church is to outlaw abortion entirely, a move that isn’t being welcomed too warmly by the Ukrainian women. Not surprisingly, those pushing to outlaw abortion are in fact men.

Ukraine’s decision to entertain this foolishness stems from the fact that the citizenry of Ukraine are falling in numbers. Year after year, more people leave the country while less of those staying are having children. Rather than try and address the concerns the would be parents might have regarding children, like where to find food to feed them or money to shelter them, the Ukrainian state decided to look into other means to help stimulate procreation.

The women of FEMEN didn’t take this potential threat lightly. They quickly rallied 5 beautiful protesters, quietly broke into one of Kiev’s most prominent church towers, and dropped a huge tapestry with the word “STOP”. Just in case people didn’t see the giant 7 meter long tapestry, the girls decided that ringing the bells would bring a bit more attention. Not surprisingly, it did. Less surprisingly, the attention involved the police and territorial guards. The girls did a good job of barring the doors, but the police made their way in. The girls were quickly arrested and are currently being held in a local jail.

Following in the logic that banning abortion would help raise the number of Ukrainians, FEMEN ask a very interesting question … what about all the lost semen from the masturbating Ukrainian men? Shouldn’t they outlaw masturbation as well?

FEMEN’s message was simple … Keep your nose out of our pussy, there is no money to be made there.

Here are a few photos of the preparation to the protest:
