About 50 prostitutes have decided to bare it and walk down the streets naked to protest in El Alto,Bolivia, South America.
The girls are contesting the fact that locals have shut down the strip bars.
The bar owners are closing their businesses because clients have stopped coming to see naked women.
The spokeswoman for the prostitute said:
“We’ve all taken our HIV-AIDS test and we’re going on a hunger strike,”
“then the government should give us a hand and take care of our children, and afterward provide us with jobs”.
There are apparently 400 to 500 hookers roaming the streets of El Alto earning $US40 a day.
