A naked feminist activist chained herself to a fence on Wednesday in downtown Rio de Janeiro to protest against a sexist comment made by a Brazilian actor a few days earlier.
Covered in red paint, Sara Winter, a formal member of Femen now part of the Bastardxs group, criticized a comment made by Brazilian soap opera actor Bruno Gissoni in which he said “A bit of sexism is good, otherwise things become a mess.”
The actor’s comment to a local magazine was in reaction to a question his flirtatious fictitious girlfriend in the soap opera he acts in. His answer was bashed on social media.
