Activists protest against lads mags in Tescos

Over 30 activists from the Object organisation protested against the open display of "lads' magazine

The protest group accused the London grocery chain of openly promoting the sale and display of "lads' magazines" such as Zoo, Nuts, FHM and the Sun within the view and reach of young children.

The protestors placed lads magazines in paper bags and wrote slogans on them, such as "This magazine is sexist, don't buy it", "Women are human too", and "This magazine promotes violence against women."

Object fights against the sexual objectification of women in the media and popular culture.

Although I'd prefer the article without the gratuitous pic from Zoo magazine, New Statesman!

Aparently you too cant bear it if sexist patriarchal culture gets a kick in the face. Hang your head in shame when you insult half the population. Are you a lads mag as well then?
