After researching and finding sites and clips of previous protests against rape and sexual objectification, such as the links here... we have developed our ideas for the protest. 

We initially thought of the idea to dress with very little on, with words that are used to describe women with negative connotations written all over our body in black and red to represent the dirt and fact that on the outside, women are an image that men have drawn for their sakes. We formed the idea that, because we actually are not the image they conceive, we will rub off the words with some form of water/wipes as part of the theatrical piece to symbolise the idea that together we can get rid of this image. 

I found this quote from the bible: 'God said unto woman: "I will greatly multiply thy sorrow and thy conception; in sorrow thy shall bring forth children; and thy desire shall be to thy husband, and he shall rule over thee." Genesis, Chapter III verse xvi' 

I found this really shocking, because there are so many people who will follow the bible as a culture and are justified by something that is internationally recognised by many cultures. 

We have written facts and statistics on pieces of large cardboard so that there are visual aids for people to know what we are protesting about. Whilst we are getting the words off of us, we may say the statistics, after shouting the words that we will use from 'Project Unbreakable' at both the beginning and the end. 

I was hoping to maybe walk on holding hands with all of our group and walk off doing the same, showing a sense of community, and if we are all in it together, we can change something. The idea of us coming on with hardly any clothing on will shock people and create instinctive thoughts and comments made by people passing who will then in turn feel uncomfortable about thinking or commenting on us once they have understood what we are standing for. The personal guilt will hopefully change what they say to girls in the future.
