I Stand With Putin

Pic from The Telegraph, as well as the story
Now I realize we are at war ideologically with ol' Vlad Putin, but I gotta give him some props here. Several members of the womens' rights group Femen protested topless with profane slogans painted on their fairly bodacious bods. I make that call after seeing pictures of their International Topless Jihad Day last week, where they surely did not make many friends among Muslims (pics at the link NSFW, just the way I like 'em). Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Now I ask you, is that the face of a man who doesn't appreciate nekkid wimmen throwing themselves at him? Tell me he does not appreciate the spectacle. He did, in fact, enjoy the whole thing:
He added: “To be honest, I didn’t really hear what they were shouting because the security [guards] were very tough. These huge guys fell on the lasses. That seemed not right to me, they could have been handled more gently.” 

Mr Putin appeared to show a flash of his well-known salty humour, adding: “I didn’t make out whether they were blondes, chestnut-haired or brunettes.”
Of course he had to be all prim and proper:
The Russian president said protests by Femen activists were nothing new. “We’ve all got used to these demonstrations and I don’t see anything terrible here,” he said.

However, he added: “If someone wants to debate political questions, then it’s better to do it clothed rather than getting undressed. You should undress in other places, such as on nudist beaches.”
Yah, yah, yah. Your face just gave you away, brother. And what fun would it be if the Femen protested at a nude beach? These gals beat PETA and Bare Breasts Not Bombs all to hell and back, In My Humble Opinion (both links NSFW). And (definitely NSFW, and you really, really don't want to see this) Femen is much, much better than San Francisco's Inflated Scrotum Man.

There's nude, and then there's nude. There is a difference!

It's a face of a man after several rather badly-executed cosmetic "procedures".
This episode, with naked protesters, has pre-history that really freezes all jokes dead.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pussy_Riot
2 years in prison for a political speech/performance that is at most - a misdemeanor. And Russian jail is not an American jail.
Besides, the Wiki is not entirely correct; the "criminal" deed that landed these girls in jail was the phrase "Putin go away".
That's what is written on the back of that girl in the picture, albeit in a bit stronger language.

It is really a courageous act, carrying real, life-harming danger.
