Bravo! Glasgow Scotland joins the latest addition of Slutwalks on June 4, 2011.

Demonstrators march merrily donning their gaudiest and most creative yet feminine outfits – though no one really looked like a slut at all – on a Slutwalk on June 4, 2011 in Glasgow, Scotland.

This was Glasgow's first ever Slutwalk which made its way through the town center streets in a bid to raise awareness about commonly-held attitudes towards rape and sexual assault.

The first Slutwalk started in the streets of Toronto when local women took on the protest to correct the perceptions of a local personal security seminar that was teaching that women should "avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized."
