Around 500 people turned out in Paris over the weekend for a protest by feminist groups against a wave of sexist commentary generated by IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn's arrest. Strauss-Kahn, who had been favourite to win next year's French presidential election, was charged with sexual assault, kidnapping and attempted rape in New York last week after an alleged assault on a hotel maid.(via AFP )
