Tuesday’s #GOPHandsOffMe protest outside Trump properties in New York, Chicago, Washington, D.C. and who knows where else certainly wasn’t the first time feminists broke out the vagina costumes; Code Pink checked that item off their to-do list years ago. But it always seemed such a shame that there was never anyone around to capture the moment with some really high-quality photos.
Finally, thanks to Reuters and freelance photographer Joshua Lott, there are enough glamour shots of pussy-obsessed protesters to make that calendar everyone’s always wanted, and just in time for holiday gift-giving, too.

It is so much easier to take these protesters seriously when they’re given proper lighting and professional creative direction — the Sharpie ink on those “Pussies in Formation” posters really jumps now.
Just compare the artistic quality to these candid on-the-street photos:

Yeah, we’re going to go ahead and guess whoever said that wasn’t raising children during Clinton’s second term, as America had that long-postponed discussion on whether oral sex counted as sex. Good times.

Some of those signs make these T-shirts worn by the cast of “Orange Is the New Black” cast look downright classy.
