Indian Girls Plow Fields Naked in Attempt to Bring Rain

Friday, July 24, 2009

Indian farmers -- desperate for rain -- have asked their unmarried daughters to plow dry fields naked, in a bid to spark interest from the weather gods, and bring some badly needed monsoon rain.

The nude girls in the eastern India state of Bihar chanted hymns as they plowed the fields, asking for rain, witnesses told Reuters.

"They (villagers) believe their acts would get the weather gods badly embarrassed, who in turn would ensure bumper crops by sending rains," Upendra Kumar, a village council official, told Reuters.

"This is the most trusted social custom in the area and the villagers have vowed to continue this practice until it rains very heavily," she told Reuters.

Yeah I know this is not good without pictures, but this is foux snooz after all.
Maybe someone could talk some of the more radical sky beings myth believers in this country into doing something like this for their cause? Can you imagine the pro-birther's picket line or Sarah Palin supporters.... Ah, maybe not. Anyway think of the possabilities.

16. And you're being real mature, yourself

So what you're saying is that nudity is perfectly okay... Just so long as no one who might enjoy the view is around to see it.

And that men who want to see naked women are "creepy," "immature" and "childish."

it would seem to me that perhaps you don't buy your own "nothing wrong with nudity" statement.
