Who speaks for Muslim women?
Muslim feminists reject Femen's 'sextremist' brand of protest.
- In a Skype conversation, Amina Tyler, a Tunisian woman whose topless pictures caused controversy, discussed her experiences with feminist group Femen, saying she was kidnapped and beaten by her family. She also said she does not want to leave Tunisia until she carries out a topless protest.
- Femen leader Inna Shevchenko called for a 'Topless Jihad Day' in support of Amina Tyler and later argued in an open letter that Muslim women cannot truly be 'free'.
- And you can put as many scarves as you want if you are free tomorrow to take it off and to put it back the next day but don't deny millions of your sisters who have fear behind their scarves, don't deny that there are million of your sisters who have been raped and killed because they are not following the wish of Allah! We are here to scream about that.
- Below is a screenshot from the 'Muslimah Pride Day' event on Facebook, a response to Femen's 'Topless Jihad Day':

- The organisers of the counter-protest urged Muslim women to speak out for themselves and assert their diverse identities:
- This event is open to ALL muslim women, Hijaabi's Nikaabis and women who choose not to wear it. Muslimah pride is about connecting with your Muslim identity and reclaiming our collective voice. Most importantly it is about diversity and showing that muslim women are not just one homogenous group. We come in all shapes and sizes, all races and cultural backgrounds. Whether we choose to wear hijaabs or not is nobodies business but ours. So please get clicking, get creative, get loud and proud. #Muslimapride

- The organisers also penned the following open letter to Femen:
- Using the hashtag #MuslimahPride, netizens criticised Femen's campaign and said it reinforced stereotypes about Muslim women:
- "Only if Femen and Richard Dawkins would come to rescue us from our oppressive men and religion" said no muslim woman ever! #muslimahpride
- We don't accept the stereotypes enforced on us by the west. Nor do we need #Femen to become our collective mouth piece. #MuslimahPride
- Mimicking Femen's tactic of posting topless photos to social networks, 'Muslimah Pride Day' participants shared photos of themselves expressing their opposition to 'Topless Jihad Day':
