PHOTOS: Femen Activists Bare Breasts At Church Doors In Abortion Law Protest



Feminist activists mounted a bare-breasted protest outside a Madrid church on Monday to decry Spain's plan to ban women from freely opting for abortion. A member of the protest group Femen kneeled on the pavement baring her breasts with the slogans "Christmas is Cancelled" and "Free Abortion" daubed on her chest.
Two other activists circled her, spilling a red liquid on the ground outside the city centre's Church of San Manuel y San Benito, shortly after worshippers celebrating morning mass had left the building.
Under pressure from the Roman Catholic Church, Spain's government agreed on Friday to roll back a 2010 law which had brought Spain into line with much of Europe by letting women opt freely for abortion up to 14 weeks into pregnancy. Ministers adopted draft legislation allowing abortion only in cases of rape or a threat to the mother's health.
