Naked Protesters Slam Fur Industry in Barcelona

Seems like there’s been quite a bit of naked going on lately, especially with all the work that went into putting together this year’s glorious State of the Union Undress, but these images—from a recent anti-fur demonstration in Barcelona—are way too good to pass up. Dozens of activists gathered to draw attention to the cruelty of the fur industry on Monday, and the results are just incredibly compelling.

Check out the photo gallery here.

And there’s a nice piece about the event here.

How sad that you all have nothing better to do than make fools of yourselves by taking cheap shots at people who don't think and act as you do. I'm embarrassed FOR these protesters...they've made themselves look like ignorant idiots by running around naked about an issue that really doesn't concern them. I will grant them the fact that everyone is entitled to express their opinion but c'mon let's do so in a more tasteful rational way. As far as PETA's Worst Dressed List goes what a load of garbage. First of all if you all have nothing better to do with your time than to worry yourselves about what celebrities or anyone else for that matter decide to wear then you must lead a sad life. Secondly calling for celebs to donate their furs does absolutely nothing to solve this fictional "fur problem" that you all seem to think exists. What difference does it make if a celebrity is wearing fur or leather or any other person is wearing these items? It's still being worn and animals are still being killed to provide the material. PETA should make a strong reevaluation and think about how these things are handled. No one will respect you if you fly off the handle every time someone acts differently than you do. Take a reality check and have some respect for yourselves by making yourselves look like the intelligent people that I'm sure you are. Furthermore back off everyone who has different ideas. Your tendency to attack people who eat meat wear fur etc seems a little hypocritical to your overall philosophy.

These are so much more effective than the "I'd Rather Go Naked" stunts. This is a good sexpositive use of nudity.

Monserrat A beautiful post! How I wish YOU could address the big conclaves that decide the fate of the whales the Safari Club the fur trader's associations the conventions for the pig farmers and beef cattle associations. You give me hope that people all over the world still care about the planet and ALL of its inhabitants. Thank you for your post.

All right! Now this one has my wholehearted approval! I know that will surprise some of the folks here but in this protest it's quite clear that the nudity represents the naked bodies of animals stripped of their fur. It's moving and very very effective. There's nothing salacious or lewd about it. Beautifully done!
