#IDon'tDeserveToBeRaped Campaign: Women Pose Nude In
Response To Shocking Brazilian Survey (PICTURES)
A powerful campaign has been launched after a shocking survey revealed attitudes on sexual assault in Brazil.
The country's Institute for Applied Economic Research (IPEA) released research this week revealing that over 65% of 3,810 respondents
agreed that "if dressed provocatively, women deserve to be attacked or raped" while over 58% agreed that "if women knew how to behave,
there would be less rape."
Particularly shocking was that 66.5% of those surveyed were in fact, women, leading many to argue that the response proves how
"widespread the toxic nature of rape culture is."
The response to IPEA's findings was initiated by journalist Nana Quieroz, who posted a photo on Twitter declaring: "Nao Mereo Ser
Estrupada", which in Portugese translates to "I Don't Deserve To Be Raped."
Women and men from around the world have since joined forces to upload their own deliberately provocative selfies alongside hashtag
captions which include #NoWomanDeservesToBeRaped, #IDontDeserveToBeRaped and #MyBodyBelongsToMe.
Here are some of the powerful images contributed to the online protest:

Nobody deserves to be raped - man or woman...
There is absolutely no excuse for this type of dreadful behaviour, although following
the example of FEMEN may not be the most constructive way to get the message
across, but the message is clear.

This is problem for men to face... real men don't rape, beat and abuse others..
There is simply no excuse.

No it is not a problem for 'men' to face. It is a problem for rapists to face. Men in
general don't have to take any responsibility for the actions of sick rapists, and to
suggest otherwise is pathetic sexism.

By posing naked they are saying "even though you find my naked body sexually
alluring. That does not give you the right to think you can rape me" It is shocking
that in the 21st century men and women could think that rape under any
circumstance could be acceptable. It goes to show that educating the whole world
to the same moralistic standards is going to be a difficult but important duty for
everyone.

The campaign is deeply necessary and undoubtedly sincere but HORRIBLY
MISGUIDED
Ladies , getting your kit off distracts from the serious nature of your aims and
trivialises it as you project yourselves as objects , of your own volition.
Surely this is precisely what is being fought around the world. Stop fooling
yourselves with nonsense that this is some form of post-feminist protest , when
anything approaching respect and equality are still decades away in so many parts
of the world.
This does not help progress a cause .
You are choosing to participate in the exact thing you are fighting.
NUTS magazine is mort . PLEASE STOP AUDITIONING

By exposing their bodies will not deter rapists. Rapists are sick individuals who have
no respect for other humans bodies. Any rapist, male or female, should be
incarcerated for life. No man, woman, or child should have to suffer rape or abuse.

Whilst they are right to stand up to them I would think posing nude and flipping

Yes, a culture that tolerates and excuses rape is a toxic thing, but I don't know that
posing naked is the best way in which to counter it. Doubtless I'd have been among
the 65% of women who regretfully admits that dressing provocatively isn't the safest
thing that a woman can do. That is neither right nor fair: it's just the way that the
world is...

Point comprehensively missed there David. They are arguing that woman should be
able to dress as they wish without having to fear rape
