Kinda cool, but the visual of the skirt looks a bit weird, and wouldn't you lift a skirt up instead of pulling it down...

It is cool.

In a violent attack, the perpetrator has no time to lift the skirt. They use force to get it off - even tearing it off the victim.

Kudos! Gets someone thinking ...

KInda cool, but the skirt visual is weird man. couldn't tell what it was.. but kinda cool

Cool is not the word here- intelligent, effective, empathetic and striking are......bet u guys are men.....three cheers for the ambient, we actually need these kinds in every country.

It might be intelligent, effective and empathetic for women more than men but isn't that the problem? The copy is aimed towards men, not women. The cause is just but when we're drunk off our Ass at a night club then we won't take the time to read too much in to it. Effectiveness gone.

I think it would be better if the whole mouth was tiny, but it has been done, so… Next!

Good use of ambient. It would definitely be noticed. The art direction needs some tweaks, though.

DJ Gareth Cliff?

Wow.

Wow.

I mean

Wow.

nice though would have been more powerful if the image showed a more torn up skirt

Maybe the paper should have been cut to look like a skirt. Might have been better.
