She totally went to Parliament, threatened with rape by MP

Newly elected MP in Brazil Anna Paula da Silva sparked controversy by putting on a red ympsuy discovered on the chest during the swearing out ceremony. The 43-year-old was wearing a jumpsuite on February 1st that discovered her chest, causing anger in Brazil.

During an interview given to the Brazilian network N The SC TV she said: “I thought people would talk about my red dress, but they focused on the chest. Women have breasts and I have big ones. I've always been like this, I didn't become when I was elected deputy and I have no reason to change. The way I was dressed is my problem”, Da Silva said.

Latin America's largest nation has long struggled with gender-based violence, and men continue to dominate most of the public sphere, including politics. “Gras are in politics and society needs to get used to what they are. There are far more important issues for the Legislative Framework to discuss, she added. Despite that, some citizens have threatened to rape her, but the post was immediately erased from the MP's stage.
