November 25th: Journée de la jupe en France/Skirt Day in France

   25 November is the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women since 1981. 
   The association "Ni Putes Ni Soumises" - "Neither Whores Nor Submissive"-  invited all French women to wear a skirt on Thursday. This gesture was to show solidarity towards all women suffuring violence in France and all over the world. At least 135,000 women took part in the protest.
