Boobquake

I got invited to this event on Facebook. Figured I'd spread the word so all the world could rejoice. Cause, you know, boobs are awesome.

Help fight supernatural thinking and the oppression of women, just by showing your cleavage!

(For those who want a more serious explanation of the event, please go here: http://www.blaghag.com/2010/04/quick...boobquake.html)

"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes," Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi was quoted as saying by Iranian media. Sedighi is Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader.

I have a modest proposal.

Sedighi claims that not dressing modestly causes earthquakes. If so, we should be able to test this claim scientifically. You all remember the homeopathy overdose?

Time for a Boobqauke.

On Monday, April 26th, I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own. Yes, the one usually reserved for a night on the town. I encourage other female skeptics to join me and embrace the supposed supernatural power of their breasts. Or short shorts, if that's your preferred form of immodesty. With the power of our scandalous bodies combined, we should surely produce an earthquake. If not, I'm sure Sedighi can come up with a rational explanation for why the ground didn't rumble. And if we really get through to him, maybe it'll be one involving plate tectonics.

So, who's with me? I may be a D cup, but that will probably only produce a slight tremor on its own. If you'll be joining me on twitter, use the tag #boobquake!

My favorite kind of protest is the kind with tits.

All the best tits are pro-choice, anti-war, environmentally aware, and advocate equal rights.

And my family wonders where I got my political views.

Look, there is *zero* connection between immodesty and seismology. Earth quakes have to do entirely with plate tectonics and nothing to do with the quaran. I have no patience for those who pretend otherwise.

With that said, while admirable, this experiment/protest is unnecessary. My position as ToS may be unofficial but please take it from me that there already exists more than ample statistical data to discount this bizzarre theory without anyone having to sacrifice their dignity.

PS This story probably might have been a good update for The CHUD Quake Command Center IMHO. Oh well.

Cleavage is a powerful force for good in the world. I heartily approve of any justification for greater cleavage visibility.

I don't care if it does cause earthquakes. Release the crackin'.

I need to find a way to get this thing started over here. I won't rest until I do so. All in the cause of women's rights, of course.

We need to combine it with a mass bra burning in some way.

This is for science damnit! You didn't hear Oppenheimer going on about dignity when he was formulating a way to toast the Japanese. Get with the program.

Anyway, they are just talking a bit of side boob...

This noble effort will be first and foremost a scientific endeavor. So, I want all those budding (and buxom) scientists out there to take pictures of this experiment. Lots and lots of pictures.

Seriously, Diva, you know what this boobquake could mean to science? If we jumpstart it, and it's real, it could mean a lot. It could mean actual advances in the field of science.

I was under the impression this would be a "big boob" fest, but all are certainly welcome.

Dressing modestly today, no reason to perform an unnecessary experiment where you could possibly end up verifying the deranged hypothesis of a religious mad man should a quake choose this moment to strike

If anyone is looking for some reality based discussion of plate tectonics, head on over to the CQCC

1) Because as previously mentioned, what if a quake were to occur today? It would just fuel the flames of idiocy.

2) I should not have to change how I dress just to disprove some theory that has zero scientific basis. Is Mardi Gras the most quake ravaged time of the year? No? Iranian Quake Hypothesis Disproven!
