A student has stripped down to her bra and underwear during her thesis presentation in protest against her professor's comments that her choice of clothing was inappropriate.
Letitia Chai, a senior student at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, took off her clothes during her presentation, which was filmed on Facebook live, to stand up against "oppressive beliefs and discrimination".
Ms Chai organised the protest after her teacher allegedly questioned her choice of clothing during a test run of her thesis presentation and told her: "Your shorts are too short".
Describing the incident in a Facebook post, Chai wrote: "She proceeded to tell me in front of my whole class that I was inviting the male gaze away from the content of my presentation and onto my body."

"Needless to say, I was shook," Ms Chai wrote.
After she left the classroom, her teacher came out to talk to her and according to Ms Chai, she asked her what her mother would think of her outfit.
"What would my mom think? My mom is a feminist, gender, sexuality studies professor. She has dedicated her life to the empowerment of people in all gender identities. So, I think my mother would [be] fine with my shorts," ...
When asked what she was going to do, Ms Chai replied: "I'm going to give the best damn speech of my life."
Writing on Facebook, Ms Chai invited others to support her on the day of her actual presentation and asked people to "strip down" to their underwear with her during her 15-minute address.

She told the audience of several dozens that this was a call for "solidarity" with students like her who had been asked to "question themselves about their appearances for the comfort of others".

If she does it there, she’ll likely be doing the same at job interviews.
I knew a perpetual student who wore business attire to campus admin job interviews and then put on whatever goofy clothes she wanted to wear after she landed the job because she knew they couldn’t fire her if she otherwise _behaved_ herself. “That’s how you get _hired,”_ she said.
It worked on campus, for sure. And it’s working in more places outside the university campus, too.
Liberal chicks are easy. Most guys I know did the 4F with them when young, then married a conservative woman later in life. Those married the liberal chicks all got divorced. Those that did the 4F with the liberal chicks also found marriage to a conservative woman difficult and some got divorced.
Her:
“I dreamed I was in my Maidenform bra...
Until I heard the sound of a needle scratching across the record...”
IT’S A MAN BABY
Massive Bush D-
The prof should sue her for sexual harassment. I mean, what male could get away with taking his pants off in front of a female professor?
Too bad she could not give the “best damn speech” of her life without stripping. Sad.
Her male classmates might have a bone to pick...
Oh no.
This is just practice. The job interview will be full nudity.
“See what you are buying?”
True! They fit in for sure. SAD!
Built being the operative word there.
When I transferred after my Freshman year, I needed to tale a summer school calculus course. I also took a speech course to raise my GPA
One speech was delivered in muddy caving clothes and hard hat complete with carbide lamp
She got the instruction backward. To prevent fright, pretend your audience has no clothes
“”the content of her thesis””
I was so disgusted that I didn’t see what the content of her thesis was...What was it? How to make an *** of herself without any effort?
The professor should call her bluff, and tell her that her panties are too short.
Her communist Chinese parents must be so proud of her.
Way to show up those Yankee Imperialist Americans.
The only thing in this story that surprised me is that it appears she shaves
Yes because being professional is oppressive. Ithaca, of course it’s Ithaca.
Definitely NOT a distraction from any thesis presentation...
