Last week a row in the UK when a woman was asked not to breast feed in Claridges Hotel in London and yesterday a French woman, former member of the feminist group Femen was sentenced to 6 months suspended imprisonment for a "shocking display" in the Notre Dame cathedral in Paris. Admittedly Eloise Bouton had set out to make a display, unlike her London "co-condemned". But the dozen or so people in the church at the time (and the choir who were rehearsing) were duly shocked and the rest of the world regarded the pictures with more or less interest.
The Femen have made many bare breast demonstrations in public without legal consequence, but in a church is a step too far it seems.
