    Thumbs up Boobquake!

    Help fight supernatural thinking and the oppression of women, just by dressing immodestly!

    ----------------------
    http://www.blaghag.com/2010/04/in-na...-my-boobs.html

    (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!

    ----------------------
    NOTE: There is no official Boobquake shirt (at least, not yet - I may be able to be convinced if there is a demand, as I am an artist). If you see some saying that proceeds will be donated to charity, buy at your own risk, since I can't guarantee where that money is going. Here are some real charities you can donate directly to:

    Dressing modestly won't end earthquakes, so help out the victims of inevitable natural disasters at the Red Cross: http://www.redcross.org/

    Ayaan Hirsi Ali Foundation: http://www.theahafoundation.org/

    ----------------------
    The official Boobquake fan page (in case of future boobquakes) can be found here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Boobquake/115608248460905

    You're not missing anything on this one. Just someone doing a poor rendition of Carly Simon.

    Did 'Boobquake' Facebook group spark Taiwan tremor? New 'evidence' for cleric who claimed baring of cleavage causes earthquakes

    A tremor, measuring 6.5 on the richter scale, came as a Facebook event called ‘Boobquake’ received support from 200,000 women vowing to bare their chests.

    You could almost believe that is a fake photo, hard to picture that much land moving in one go.
