WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- If you're seeing women dressed a bit more revealingly Monday, it could be they're taking part in the "boobquake," and effort to oppose comments by an Iranian cleric, WRTV-TV in Indianapolis reported.
The station said it started with a Purdue University student's attempt to poke fun at an Iranian cleric's contention that promiscuity and immodesty is responsible for earthquakes. It mushroomed into a cause that went viral, taken on by thousands of women.
Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader, ignited controversy by linking tremors to the behavior of women.
"Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes," Iranian media quoted Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi as saying.
Jen McCreight, a self-described "liberal, geeky, nerdy, scientific, perverted atheist feminist trapped in Indiana," and her cause, "Boobquake," is one of the top trending topics worldwide on Twitter and has amassed a Facebook following of about 50,000 people, with hundreds of thousands pledged to help the effort.

I feel the earth - move - under my feet

I feel my heart start to trem-b-ling -

Thankfully, my school was relatively unaffected.
Short of g-strings and pasties how could college girls dress more revealingly? (I know, not all, but too many)

I for one welcome our new jubtabulous overlords.
Some gals just need to hit the gym before posing like that.
If that’s your wife, I sincerely apologize!
A friend of mine said he felt a quake, then realized it was just him shaking. :)
No, it was straight from that article in the referenced FReeper post... :-)
That’s most likely a model, but....really? She’s quite pretty.
