Short Shorts and High Heels Protest French Burqa Ban

Hot chicks in short shorts and heels. Works all the time when the goal is to get a bit of attention. Doesn’t really matter what the intended goal is. People will look at hot chicks just because they are hot.

In this case, these hot chicks – two French students, one Muslim – had a very specific purpose for donning short shorts, high heels…and mini-burqas. The two were out to protest a new law in France that makes wearing a burqa in public worthy of a fine.

So the girls, who refer to themselves as Niqabitches, got all sexed up and took a stroll down the sidewalk and over to the Ministry of Immigration and National Identity. Whiplash ensued as gawkers couldn’t get enough of the pair.

Explaining the stunt, the pair said, “We were not looking to attack or degrade the image of Muslim fundamentalists – each to their own – but rather to question politicians who voted for this law that we consider clearly unconstitutional,”

Live and Uncensored reports the video was uploaded to YouTube October 2 and has seen 28,274 views. And on Vimeo, the video, uploaded on September 17, has seen upwards of 249,000. Chicks in short shorts and heels. It works every time.

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
