Hundreds of women stripped off to stage a protest against rape and violence as part of a ‘SlutWalk’ event.
The participants raised slogans written on their bodies and banners as they marched through the streets.
The event was held along Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana beachfront in Brazil.
According to a report in Mirror.co.uk, the protesters said that their key aims was to address claims by some that women provoke attacks by the way they dress or act.
They also wanted to fight against proposed new abortion restrictions which, if passed, would mean a woman who was raped could only have a termination if she could prove the crime.
