Togo women call sex strike

   
Contrary to what the picture above says, lol, it was just so funny i had to put it up,but here's some serious developments going on in our neighbor country Togo.

Women in Togo have been urged to abstain from sex for a week from Monday to push their demand for reform. The ban has been called by opposition coalition Let's Save Togo, made up of nine civil society groups and seven opposition parties and movements. Opposition leader Isabelle Ameganvi said that sex could be a "weapon of the battle" to achieve political change. The coalition wants President Faure Gnassingbe, whose family has held power for decades, to stand down.  She said she had been inspired by a similar strike by Liberian women in 2003, who used a sex strike to campaign for peace. "If men refuse to hear our cries we will hold another demonstration that will be more powerful than a sex strike," she added...culled from BBC.

Well  a sex strike for a week? will it work? because the only message being passed across here is that these guys get "it" on a regular so they might be compelled to listen if the don't have sex for a week. I just hope it works,thoughts on this move anyone?
