An Iranian cleric, Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, issues a warning about seismically slutty damesHojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi wrote:"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes,"
I wish I'd known that before - it would have made studying geology so much more interesting.
As Jen McCreight, the BlagHag points out - that's a scientifically testable hypothesis - so she suggests it's time for a boobquake.
Jen McCreight wrote: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 Boobquake.
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.
Of course this only works if men are led astray by the awesome boob power. May I volunteer for that part? (I hope I'm not too old)
