📖 About this session
March 8th, 2013, Málaga. A group of protesters took charge of the first 'Procesión del Coño Insumiso' (Procession of Rebellious Pussy) where the protesters prayed to Saint Rebellious Pussy. [More info here: https://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2013/03/12/andalucia_malaga/1363112940.html]. The group of women that led the event carried a big foam rubber vagina to protest against the violence against women sexual freedom, as in topics as abortion, practices as ablation and to give visibility to women sexuality as something natural.

Bringing back the spirit of the first procession, this session deals with stories that give visibility to the topics back then combined with the experience of terrible husbands, denied intimacy and sexual disappointment.
