Boobquake

Well, ladies, are you going to let some feeble-minded mullah foist his superstition on the world or will you join in the great protest.

According to what I've seen:

"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.

He may have a point, you know. If I take these girls out without proper support, the jiggle alone could put the world off its axis.

Been there, done that

Nice try..I recall in my college days, bras were verboten. Tried living up to this and noticed that the men around me were driven to incoherency

felt pity as it is not fair

i tend to like my men able to speak in full sentences

saving the bra-less-ness for those of you i intend to seduce

be warned....

Eh...being braless has nothing to do with Boobquake. Showing lots of cleavage (or just lots of skin, if you prefer not to show cleavage or are like me and have no cleavage to show) is what they're getting at.

And I'm STILL trying to figure out what to wear tomorrow.

Not everyone seems to think Boobquake is a good thing.

I appreciate McCreight's intentions behind this; she meant it as a feminist response to a ridiculous statement. Unfortunately, it seems to be turning into something else, with many men chiming in, with their "show us your tits" camera-ready attitude. Women on parade again ... sigh. Since when did we "stick it to the man" by wearing low-cut shirts or short shorts? When women burned bras back in the day, there was a statement there, full of boldness and righteous anger. This type of happening feels like feminism lite, "cute" feminism or "male-friendly" feminism.

Reviewing the hundreds of comments that continue to pour into the Boobquake Facebook page, many women apologetically replied, "Sorry, I don't have enough cleavage to show" or "I'm as flat as a board ... sorry!" A movement that encourages more body issues! Yay for us.

Personally, I think this article sounds like yet another "feminist" who has "grown up" to find that what they see as society's (i.e., "the patriarchy's) obsession with young women is indicative of some male shortcoming. I've long since begun to interpret this viewpoint as containing some sour grapes in addition to social commentary.

In my neck of the woods the minute the thermometer rises above 70F the amount of female skin on view would send that goat-fucking mullah into a coma...earthquakes nowithstanding. Hey, that Icelandic volcano just popped it's top a couple weeks ago and that's when the ladies began showing marvelous amounts of flesh...nahhh...it's a coincidence I'm sure.

It's not the cleavage; it's all those hand movements in reaction to the cleavage.

HAHAHA!!! Sort of like a global Shake-Weight?

Bear,
I've always believed that ample cleavage is something that one can look down upon and praise at the same time.......................

 

[Huckleman2000]

Oh No! It Worked!

Don't tempt Mother Nature, LOL

He may have a point...

That guy, Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, perhaps he had these in mind....

Definitely Reichter scale material...especially in Iran...

Now, Stephen, we both know that a somewhat naked Twiggy would be Richter scale material in Iran.

Now that's funny!

Now that's funny!

I'm in complete agreement on the redhead thing, too.

 

[Goldie Munro]

I always let it all hang out - sorry for the earthquakes folks!

 

[stephen55]

It's hard to predict....

Now, Stephen, we both know that a somewhat naked Twiggy would be Richter scale material in Iran.

I'm not sure just how a somewhat naked woman in Iran causes an earthquake, so I can't predict the scale of various earthquakes caused by the various degrees of somewhat nakedness.

That said, I'm going to guess that a reasonable flash of Twiggy's breasts would cause an earthquake of magnitude...6.2 on the Richter scale in Iran. A reasonable flash of Christina Hendricks' breasts...how about a 9.7?

Jesus.

Looks like two bald-headed men wrestling under a blanket.

When the delightful Leslie Hornby was modelling at the right place & Time, she almost revolutionised modelling modern fashion. But no observer would have thought that her boobs were even a 4 on the scale. June Palmer? yes. Twiggy ? No.

Christina Hendrix, however, must be worth a 7.8. (who is she, anyway?).

Christina Hendricks is an actress best known for her starring role as two very large breasts, no...make that Joan Holloway in the AMC cable television series Mad Men.
