In two weeks my vacation begins. Kids go back to school on Sept 7th. Hopefully I will then slowly recuperate from this idiocy disease which has stolen my mind and ability to function (of course I’m gonna blame the kids otherwise I’d have to actually admit that it was me and isn’t that the whole [...]
They’re calling it “Boobquake”
Just last week I was talking about the muslimFATWAwhich stated that women should breastfeed men that they work with and now we’ve got another muslim cleric saying that boobs cause earthquakes. I don’t even know what to say about these crazy muslims (and I’m married to one, not crazy, just muslim) and their amazing ability to blame all ills that befall earth on women. But this has got to take the cake (or should I say quake). Of course, a group has been started on facebook to prove this guy wrong. If you’d like to join this group of women check out their facebook page. Let’s do what we can for science.
“Iran is one of the world’s most earthquake-prone countries, but the explanation for the tremors by one cleric left a lot of people scratching their heads.
Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi said: ‘Many women who do not dress modestly… lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes.’
In order to prove him wrong, over 30,000 women have signed up to a Facebook group called Boobquake.
It was started by Jennifer McCreight, who wants to test the cleric’s claim scientifically, by getting thousands of women to show off their cleavages to see if any tectonic movements follow.
‘On Monday, April 26th, I will wear the most cleavage-showing shirt I own,’ she says. ‘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…’”
If I were them I would be far more concerned with the cleavage men are flashing everywhere. I mean everyone knows that crack kills. I think a far more likely scenario is this, women see man cleavage and run away as fast as they can. If this happens where there is a large group of women it causes a stampede which then causes a shift in the earths crust bringing on an earthquake. Voila!
If this guy is right and cleavage DOES causes this natural disaster I would begin here:

If scantily-clad women cause earthquakes, what do half-naked women giving birth cause?

I love how us women – with our boobs and all – are the reason why mean cheat and have sex before marriage. God forbid they say no – boobs are just so irresistible. Why isn’t there women walking around with men attached to their teet everywhere they go then? Lol… I’d love to see that.
It’s so stupid… Quakes because of cleavage?

I am dying laughing over this sentence:
“If I were them I would be far more concerned with the cleavage men are flashing everywhere. I mean everyone knows that crack kills. ”
Ahahahahahahah.
But, in all seriousness, I can’t IMAGINE the rational behind thinking that cleavage may possibly cause Quakes.

LMAO! You do come up with some of the most interesting stuff over here. Man boobs and butt crack — the worst!
Seriously though, why are men the world over so afraid of women?

Wilmaryad – That must be where hurricanes come from.
Momma Drama – Ha – Ha!!! I would LOVE to see that.
meleah rebeccah – 12 hours later, I’m STILL scratching my head
injaynesworld – Cuz like my 5 yr old daughter says “girls rule, boys drool – girls are smart, boys are stupid!!”

OK, I just woke up, haven’t finished my coffee and WAM, a big guys ass. AHHHH!!! Well, at least it woke me up!
You know what would be REALLY funny? If there WAS an earthquake that day. Terrible… not like I want anyone to get hurt, but the IRONY of it all….! LOL

I will be on vacation on Monday…on a beach. I will do my part to test the theory. Although an earthquake at the beach might lead to a tsunami, and that wouldn’t be too much fun. I don’t know how to surf.

Katherine – Sorry about that – Man, that would suck if there was one on that day. All we need is a bunch of muslim men running around thinking that the guy was right. Can you imagine what kind of crap they’ll come up with next.
Lanita – I’m sure your contribution to science will be appreciated by all. Hopefully is there is a Tsunami your boobs will help you float.

As I always knew..women are all powerfull!!

Thanks, that’s just what I wanted to look at today. Ewwww!
I say we all go topless on Monday and see what happens. The problem with that theory is that these nuts jobs are patient. Boobs shown on Monday 2010 could mean an earthquake in 2013 or in 2713. These people can wait these things out to prove everyone how right and righteous they are.
I’d say more but I don’t want the same people who are after the South Park boys after me.

Sounds like a great idea! Don’t forget to take plenty of pictures and post visual proof of this historic event!

Buggys – ALWAYS!! We can move mountains so I guess we can also cause earthquakes.
Jen – Nothin like big fat man cleavage to get you all excited! Topless is good. We have to include all religious nuts – what was it Pat Robertson said about the earthquake in Haiti? All these religious crazies need to start their own country and then go to war against each other.
Rob – I’m sure there will be lots of images to document this scientific event.

MY EYES!!!! The images are now burned into my retinas! How on earth am I supposed to sleep tonight?

Women do rule. I agree with Jenn. All women should go topless on Monday. Come by my street in a parade. Let the drooling begin.

Nicky – man boobs and butt cleavage ARE a very painful fact of life.
mel – earthquakes caused by butt cleavage is serious business, you should be scared!
Grampy – I guess even if it was proven that boobs caused earthquakes men still wouldn’t want them covered up.

I would have been helpful in that campaign about 20 years ago. At this point, even if I wanted to join, I don’t have the cleavage to inspire an earthquake. If cleavage could inspire an earthquake. Of course, since I am a woman, my lack of inspiring cleavage probably causes some other natural disaster.

Boobs do provoke earthquakes … in a man’s pants! :p

Anne – I don’t think it matters one bit – just the idea of boobs freak them out
wilmaryad – OMG – you just made me spit coffee all ever my keyboard!!

Sorry, Sheila. I hope you won’t need a new keyboard because of that.
You see, this is the problem of Muslims today. Current times are not favorable for them to wave the frak flag, yet they’re waving away!
Long gone is the time of Prophet Mohammad – Peace Be Upon Him – when taboo subjects were nonexistent, so much so that everything was called by its name. Even Aisha, the Prophet’s last wife, used to gather his male followers and teach them how to treat their wives, in and out of the bedroom, drawing examples from her own private life.
When talking freely about such things becomes a big No-No, repression sets in. The discourse of such cleric is one repercussion of that (unless he’s a fan of Madonna and, just like her, enjoys causing controversy)

Quite important correction: freak flag.

I think you are 100% right. How do things get so twisted that a (supposedly) educated man can even put something this ridiculous forward?

Since there is division amongst Muslims, Sunnis would blame it on the guy being a Shi’ite (therefore, bonkers) and vice versa. I, for one, blame it on lack of close contact with a variety of people, from different walks of life. Being confined between the four walls of an office is not the best way to dive into the world and spray-paint it with tolerance and love, you know.

Hi Sheila,
I just read this post, as hilarious it is, I kinda agree with Wilmaryad (and his comment above). The truth is, we Muslim always forget to interact properly with their surrounding and a world with a proper interaction and understanding is the world that we live today. Sad.
