Wives and girlfriends of gang members in one of Colombia's most violent cities have called a sex ban in a bid to get their men to give up the gun.
Dozens of women are said to be taking part in what is being called the "strike of crossed legs", a move backed by the mayor of Pereira.
The city in Colombia's coffee-growing region reported 480 killings last year.
A city official said the idea came from a meeting of wives and girlfriends over the progress of a disarmament scheme.
