With the second round of voting on Egypt's draft constitution slated to begin on Saturday, a young Egyptian blogger famous for her nudist activism had decided to strip naked yet again in protest against the contentious document.

Aliaa Magda Elmahdy, 22, was photographed fully nude and holding up an Egyptian flag outside her country's embassy in Stockholm on Thursday despite the sub-zero temperatures in the Swedish capital.
A slogan painted on her body read "Sharia isn't a constitution," referring to the strict principles of Islamic law.

Elmahdy was joined in her protest by two members of the Swedish feminist organization Femen, known for its topless activism and use of sexual imagery, according to Gulf News. The two held up anti-religious placards over their private parts. The slogans on their posters targeted Egypt’s president Mohamed Morsi, Islam, and religion in general.
