THERE HAS BEEN A TOPLESS PROTEST IN ARGENTINA REGARDING THE
ISSUE OF WHETHER OR NOT IT IS ACCEPTABLE OR LEGAL TO
SUNBATHE TOPLESS IN WHEN SRS.
APPARENTLY A JUDGE IS ARTIE RULED THAT IT IS NOT CRIMINAL
BEHAVIOR IF SOMEONE DECIDES TO SUNBATHE TOPLESS.
IT IS NOT
THAT BIG OF A DEAL WITH ALL MOVE ON WITH OUR LIVES, BUT
APPARENTLY THERE WERE BEACHGOERS AT THIS ONE PARTICULAR BEACH WHO
WERE UNCOMFORTABLE WHEN A FEW FEMALES WERE SUNBATHING TOPLESS.
THEY CALLED THE COPS.
THERE WAS AN OVERREACTION TO IT.
POLICE ACTUALLY CITED AND NATIONAL CRIMINAL COLD
ARTICLE PROHIBITING OF SCENE DISPLACED TO JUSTIFY ASKING
THE WOMEN TO LEAVE THE BEACH, ALTHOUGH AT LEAST ONE JUDGE
RULED AFTER THE INCIDENT THEY GOING TOPLESS WAS NOT A CRIME.
SUNBATHING TOPLESS IS APPARENTLY NOT AS COMMON IN ARGENTINA AS IT
IS IN LET'S SAY SPAIN SO SOME PEOPLE WERE MAYBE CAUGHT OFF
GUARD AND IT DIDN'T MAKE THEM FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE BUT AGAIN IT
WAS NOT OF SCENE TO A WOMAN TO BEAR HER BREAST.
THAT IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS THING OF EVER HEARD.
ANYWAY, THE TRIO REFUSED TO PUT ON THEIR BIKINI TOPS WHEN
APPROACHED BY OFFICERS AT THIS BEACH THE ATLANTIC COASTAL
RESORT AND WHEN SRS.
ONE EVEN WITH HER TOP OFF WHEN BEING WARNED ABOUT THEIR
BEHAVIOR.
FINALLY AT ONE POINT THE COPS THREATENED TO ARREST THEM,
HANDCUFF THEM AND ARREST THEM AND THAT IS WHEN THEY
FINALLY COMPLIANT BUT THIS ACTUALLY LED TO A LOT OF
OUTRAGE IN THE COUNTRY AND SO WOMEN ARE NOW PROTESTING
AND THAT INCLUDES PEOPLE WHO ARE PROTESTING TOPLESS AND
PEOPLE ARE COMPLETELY CLOSED BUT I THINK WHAT IS INTERESTING
ABOUT THIS IS AT ONE STAGE ABOUT 20
POLICE OFFICERS AND SIX PATROL CARS ARRIVED WHICH IS ABSURD.
THAT KIND OF POLICE REACTION WOULD MAKE IT SEEM AS
THOUGH THIS WAS AN INSANE CRIME AND WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING
ABOUT IT IMMEDIATELY.
BUT APPARENTLY, THERE IS A HUGE ISSUE IN ARGENTINA
INVOLVING VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN.
RECENTLY, A 16-YEAR-OLD GIRL WAS KILLED.
SHE WAS DRUGGED AND MURDERED AND IF YOU LOOK AT THE
STATISTICS, A WOMAN'S WOMAN IS MURDERED IN ARGENTINA EVERY
30 HOURS.
IT IS A BIG PROBLEM THAT WOMEN IN THE COUNTRY
FEEL IS GOING UNCHECKED AND THERE IS NOT ENOUGH OF A
RESPONSE AND TO SEE A POLICE REACTION OR POLICE REACTION
TO SOMETHING AS FRIVOLOUS AS WOMEN SOME BATHING TOPLESS
SHOWS A SHARP CONTRAST BETWEEN THE PRIORITIES.
THERE IS A HUGE ISSUE OF GENDER INEQUALITY IN ARGENTINA.
I WAS ON THE SHOW I BELIEVE WHEN WE REPORTED UP OF THIS STORY OF
THE 16-YEAR-OLD AND IT CAUSED A BLACK WEDNESDAY WHICH WAS
THE PROTEST THAT WENT THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
THERE WERE A LOT OF PEOPLE STANDING WITHIN IN 2016
ALONE, 275 GENDER RELATED MURDERS HAPPEN IN THE FIRST
FIVE MONTHS IN ARGENTINA.
IT IS A PROMINENT ISSUE AND THIS
IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE, ALTHOUGH TO GLANCE, YOU ARE LIKE THEY JUST
WANTED TO SHOW THEIR BREASTS, IT'S JUST A MINOR ISSUE.
BUT IT IS ANOTHER REPRESENTATION OF THE OVERWHELMING ISSUE
WHICH IS WOMEN ARE NOT TREATED FAIRLY IN ARGENTINA.
IT IS A CULTURAL ISSUE.
WHAT IT REMINDS ME OF US WE ARE LOOKING AT SUCH THINGS AS
THE WOMEN'S MARGIN YOU GET THOSE WHO WILL RESPONSE WHAT
RIGHTS DO NOT HAVE?
HAVE WE NOT MOVED ON FROM THIS?
THE PIERCE MORGANS OF THE WORLD WHO COME OUT AND SAY THINGS
LIKE THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY ARE PROTESTING AS IF
THE ONLY REASON WOMEN ACROSS THE WORLD ARE PROTESTING IS
BECAUSE OF DONALD TRUMP THAT HE WOULD LOVE TO THINK THAT,
HE WAS THE REASON BEHIND IT BECAUSE HE STANDS FOR A MEDIEVAL
OUTLOOK ON WOMEN BEING GAGGED THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE STAND FOR.
IT IS AN IDEOLOGY THAT STILL PLAGUES A LOT OF NATIONS
LIKE ARGENTINA.
THERE MIGHT BE LAWS PUT IN PLACE TO ADJUST OUT THERE NOW LOST PUT
IN PLACE TO MAKE SURE THAT IT IS CALLED FOR WHAT IS.
IT IS A
GENDER -RELATED MURDER WITH MEANING THE PUNISHMENT IS MORE
SEVERE AND THEY CAN TRY TO STRIP THIS BACK AND HELP THIS ISSUE
BUT IT IS IDEOLOGY THAT IS PROMINENT THERE.
EVEN THOUGH IT'S WRITTEN IN LAW WHEN WOMEN CAN GO TOPLESS
IT STILL MEANS THAT TOO MANY PEOPLE UNDERMINE WOMEN IN
THAT COUNTRY DUCK
ISN'T THAT WHERE THE TWO AUSTRALIAN TOURISTS WOMEN
THAT WERE KILLED, THEY WENT BACK TO THE GUYS AND THEY BLAMED
THE WOMEN FOR GOING BACK TO THE HOUSE WITH THE GUYS AND
PARTYING WITH THEM?
I DON'T KNOW IF I'M FAMILIAR WITH THE STORY.
IT WAS SOMEBODY IN MY COMEDY COMMUNITY ACTUALLY KNEW
SOMEONE CONNECTED TO THAT.
YOU KNOW WHAT, IT'S FUNNY THAT WE TARGET ARGENTINA BUT
THIS IS A WORLD ISSUE.
WOMEN ARE DEALING WITH INEQUALITY AND MUCH HE IS KNOW
AS A LATINA WOMAN, I HAVE BEEN SUBJECT TO THIS IN MIAMI, YOU
CAN GO TOPLESS ON THE BEACH AND THEIR PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER DUCK
IN MIAMI YOU CAN WEAR STRING AND YOU ARE GOOD THAT BUT I LIKE
THAT YOU BROUGHT THAT UP BECAUSE IT JUST SHOWS HOW NORMS
PLAY SUCH A HUGE ROLE IN WHAT DOES AND DOESN'T MAKE US
UNCOMFORTABLE.
IN SPAIN, EVERYONE IS SUNBATHING TOPLESS.
WHEN I WENT TO BARCELONA A FEW YEARS AGO, I WAS LIKE AWESOME.
I TOOK OFF MY TOP AND NO ONE MADE ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE
AND IT FELT SO NORMAL AND FINE BUT IF YOU WERE TO DO THAT
EVEN AT A NUDIST BEACH HERE IN CALIFORNIA YOU WOULD STILL
FEEL LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE BECAUSE IT'S LIKE A SPECIALLY
DESIGNATED PLACE WHERE IT IS OKAY TO BEAR THE HUMAN BODY.
IT'S ONLY ALLOWED WHEN THEY ARE PAYING FOR IN A MAGAZINE.
IT'S TRUE, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE ENDED UP TURNING UP TO THE MARCH
AND WORK ON WOMEN AND THEN THEY WERE TOLD TO LEAVE BECAUSE
IT IS SUCH AN INTERESTING CONCEPT THAT I FEEL LIKE
MEN FEEL THAT THEY ARE EMASCULATED BECAUSE THEY
CAN LOOK AT THE WOMEN'S BREAST, NOW THEY'RE FORCED TO LOOK
AT WOMEN'S PRESS AND THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.
IT IS A RIDICULOUS IDEOLOGY.
IS STILL PLAGUING A LOT OF PLACES BECAUSE WOMEN DOING THIS
SEE IT AS AN ACT OF DEFIANCE AND THAT IS POWERFUL.
THERE TRYING TO GET A COUPLE OF YARDS WE'RE GOING TO MAKE SURE
EVEN IF A LOT OF ESSAY, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE THEM FELT
COMFORTABLE BECAUSE EVEN IF THEY DIDN'T FIND A WAY TO MOVE THEM,
THEIR ARTIE BEING DISRUPTIVE, THEY'VE ARTIE CAUSED A PROBLEM
BY GOING UP TO THEM AND SAYING YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THIS
YEAR AND THAT IS RESTAURANTS GET FRUSTRATING BECAUSE SMALL ISSUES
LIKE THIS WILL END UP, HAS A DOMINO EFFECT, IT WILL MOVE
FORWARD TO WOMEN TRYING TO FEEL DO LITTLE THINGS THAT BEING
UNDERMINED.
IT IS A WORLDWIDE ISSUE TO FOCUS ON IT BUT IT
IS IRONIC THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO IN RESPONSE TO THE WOMEN'S
MARGIN LIKE YOU ARE NOT PROTESTING SAUDI ARABIA,
LOOK AT WHAT THEY DO TO WOMEN AS AT THE WOMEN'S MARCH AS A
WHOLE HAD A SPECIFIC CAUSE.
NO, IT WAS SAID TO ENLIGHTEN THE WORLD THAT THERE A LOT OF
PROBLEMS GOING ON IN THERE A LOT OF ISSUES THAT STILL
UNDERMINE WOMEN.
SOME WOMEN PROCESS IN THE MIDDLE EAST ARE
BY THE WAY, MAYBE IT MAKES SENSE TO PROTEST AT A FEAR
THAT WOMEN'S RIGHTS WOULD ROLL BACK TO THE CRAZINESS THAT
YOU EXPERIENCE.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN?
I HAD SOMEONE ON FACEBOOK MAKE THE SAME ARGUMENT.
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO BE AN AMERICAN WHO IS CONCERNED
ABOUT AMERICA REGRESSING.
THERE WERE WOMEN WHO THERE AND MEN OF ALL BACKGROUNDS WHO HAD
VARIOUS ISSUES THAT THEY FELT NEEDED TO BE VOICED AND THAT
IS WHAT THAT PROTEST WAS ABOUT.
IT WAS NOT JUST ABOUT WOMEN'S
RIGHTS, IT WAS ABOUT A HOST OF ISSUES THAT AMERICANS ARE
FEARFUL NOW THAT WE HAVE ENTERED A DIFFERENT AGENT AMERICA.
THAT IS SOMETHING TO KEEP IN MIND.
BY THE WAY, THE POLITICAL ACTIVISM THAT WE ARE SEEING
HERE IN THE UNITED STATES, IN ARGENTINA, AND FRANCE, I
LOVE IT.
PEOPLE ARE STANDING UP AND SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER.
I HOPE THAT PEOPLE CONTINUE TO DO IT IN A PEACEFUL WAY AND
WE ACTUALLY GET THINGS DONE.
NOW MORE THAN EVER, FEELING PEOPLE ARE ENGAGED IN POLITICS.
ABSOLUTELY.
THAT'S A SILVER LINING TO ALL THE NEGATIVE STUFF THAT IS
HAPPENING AROUND THE WORLD ARE
THERE WAS A FANTASTIC PROTESTING GLASGOW SCOTLAND
AGAINST DONALD TRUMP.
SOME OF THE BEST SIGNS YOU'VE EVER SEEN.
THE SCOTTISH HAVE A WAY WITH WORDS, USING OUR OWN SLANG
TO INSULT DONALD TRUMP AND I WAS ACTUALLY ON TWITTER
TRANSITING THEM FOR AMERICANS.
I GET ALL THE TIME THAT PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS ASKING ME
WITH REGARD TO THE MARCH, WHAT WERE YOU GUYS MARCHING FOR?
YOU CAN FIT IN HUNDRED AND 40 CHARACTERS.
KNOW, THIS IS JUST A SYMPTOM OF A GREATER ISSUE AND WOMEN, SOME
PEOPLE THINK THAT PROTESTING TO BE TOPLESS IS SILLY, BUT IT
REALLY IS JUST SOMEBODY'S WAY OF SAYING WE ARE TIRED.
WERE FRUSTRATED, WE DON'T GET PAID AS MUCH WE ARE ABUSED,
WE ARE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED AND THERE ARE CONSEQUENCES.
IF YOU THINK THIS IS SILLY, THEN FIND SOMETHING THAT IS NOT
SILLY TO YOU AND GO FIND YOUR WAY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE
AND SPEAK OUT AGAINST THE STUFF
