If you haven't read today's Girls with Slingshots, you don't know today is the Boobquake

In response to an Iranian cleric's remarks that immodestly dressed women and sexual promiscuity  cause earthquakes (while a giant earthquake is menacing the capital of Iran but no one is being evacuated), a Purdue University student organized Monday's "Boobquake," an event designed to prove Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi wrong. With the help of Facebook, observances were held on the Purdue University campus, in Washington and elsewhere. Jennifer McCreight said Boobquake was designed to show that even when large numbers of women simultaneously wear low-cut tops, earthquakes do not occur. 

So basically, we are disproving silly nonsense with cleavage. SCIENTIFICALLY.

I participated. Today, I posted on a facebook wall, signed an online petition and wore a low-cut dress. 

Honestly, I'm not a huge supporter of things like immodesty and sexual promiscuity. I believe people should have sex when they are ready and mature, whenever that is for them. I believe people would dress well if you let them express themselves rather then force down a doctrine or a media image down their throats. So I wore a low-cut shirt today. To show I am against people who try to force people to do something by using silly arguments, enforced powers and scare tactics. Those people may be silly Iranian extremists, Christian housewives or the Hollywood media. The point is that they have no right to tell people what to do and use life altering events and guilt to push the points further.

People's only influence should be love.

And just because I can : For the FANDOM!



Because no boob-focused day can pass without a Naga joke. 

In unrelated news, [livejournal.com profile] rufftoon  ended today her long-standing "Avatar the Last Airbender" comic called "Water Tribe". She is a drawing genius. And for her, I drew this. Because "Water Tribe" touched me as much as the series itself.



That's all for today.

p.s. Shake it like you mean it girls.

EDIT : CRAP! There was an earthquake in Taiwan! However, Taiwan barely moved and little or no damage was sustained. So what do you think guys? Did boobs cause this? Or maybe in was God trying to prove a point by making the quake minor?

Mystery mystery.

I saw that. I'm not really one to be dressed that way either, but for science, I wore one of my lower cut shirts. ^_~ Also, how can we have this topic without a Naga joke.

Did she finish the comic? I need to go back and finish reading that.

Just to add to the "earthquake in Taiwan" fact. No, I don't think it counts. The way I see it, the idea of this is that an earthquake would happen in the country where women were showing their cleavage.

I don't know how many women across the could took part, but last time I checked there were no major earthquakes in Canada or the US. ^_~

The taiwan one did barely any damage too, so...

You have to check her LJ for the last pages I think. That's where I saw them.
