Muslim Women Against Femen: Facebook Group Takes On Activists In Wake Of Amina Tyler Topless Jihad (PICTURES)
A group of Muslim women have joined forces to protest against the work of Femen, branding them white colonial feminists.
Muslim Women Against Femen launched an online response to Femens topless jihad day, which urged activists to bare their breasts in support of Tunisian teenager Amina Tyler.
The group, which claims Femen are Islamophobes and imperialists, has opened a Facebook page featuring images of women holding up slogans such as Nudity DOES NOT liberate me and I DO NOT need saving and Shame on you Femen, hijab is my right.

13 members of the Birmingham-based unit have penned an open letter to Femen outlining their objections to the group, which was founded in Ukraine in 2008.
It says:
"We understand that its really hard for a lot of you white colonial 'feminists' to believe, but- SHOCKER! Muslim women and women of colour can come with their own autonomy, and fight back as well! And speak out for themselves! Who knew?
"We are proud Muslimahs, and were sick of your colonial, racist rubbish disguised as 'womens liberation!'"
The letter continues, accusing Femen of having messed up priorities and advising the group to take aim at male supremacy, not Islam.
It adds: You dont really care about violence and harm being inflicted upon women, you only care about that when it is perpetrated by brown men with long beards who pray five times a day.

The Huffington Post UK contacted Femen leader Inna Shevchenko for a response and this is what she had to say:
"They say they are against Femen, but we still say we are here for them.
"They write on their posters that they don't need liberation but in their eyes it's written 'help me'.
"You know, through all history of humanity, all slaves deny that they are slaves.
"We are proud to share progressive ideas for all over the world, all ideologies have the place where they were born but ideology of freedom doesn't have nationality or specific location, it's a universal idea that is shared by Arab women too!
"Why do they have to cover their bodies? This is beginning of the process."

In response, Muslim Women Against Femen spokesperson Ayesha Latif told us she found Shevchenko's comments "racist as well as evidence of colonial feminist rhetoric that portrays Arab/Muslim women as oppressed."
She added:
"It is incredibly inappropriate and offensive that theyre taking advantage of the stereotype that us Muslim women have to face in order to further their questionable cause.
"The assumption they promote is that we are subjugated creatures controlled by men, who need to be liberated by a group of perfectly groomed white women posing nude and using shock tactics.
"For them, the more you strip the more of a feminist you are - thats Western feminist ideology. Thats not liberation for us, but that doesnt make us anti-feminist.
"We wonder how many Muslim women they have actually spoken to?"
Thursdays "topless jihad day" saw thousands of women across the globe protesting outside Tunisian embassies and mosques in support of Amina, who was threatened with death by stoning by a Tunisian preacher for baring her breasts online.
In a statement posted on Facebook, Femen called for solidarity against the lethal hatred of Islamists inhuman beasts for whom killing a woman is more natural than recognising her right to do as she pleases with her own body.

Heralding the event as the beginning of a new Arab Spring, the message urged: Come to the embassy of the Republic of Tunisia and protest topless, with My Body Against Islamism! written on your body.
It added: Long live the topless jihad against infidels! Our t*ts are deadlier than your stones!

Jesus Christ
) but I'd still have no problem knocking down quite a few of the chicks whom were protesting. My preferences vary, not every chick I pursue is a pawg, sometimes they're petite. Sometimes their extremely attractive and other times their simply average. p*ssy is p*ssy,
