The protest march was part of the #RapeRoko (meaning stop rape) movement which is aimed at exerting pressure on the administration to enact a rule whereby the trial period for cases pertaining to the rape of a minor should not exceed six months.
Boys and men supporting the movement marched without their shirts, clad in their boxer shorts to give a message to society that "clothes do not cause rape, sick mentality does."
The volunteers in a unique manner have challenged the mindsets that tend to shame the survivors.

The movement was also supported by many women who marched along with the men.
