Well, you must have already received the results by now. American university student Jen McCreight protested a statement made by an Islamic cleric claiming female immodesty caused earthquakes. McCreight, a 22-year-old attending Purdue University in Indiana, was encouraging women to bare their cleavage for a day in response to Hojatoleslam Kazem Sedighi, Tehran's acting Friday prayer leader, who recently blamed earthquakes on immodest female clothing. Her move became very popular because ‘people are increasingly fed up with supernatural, anti-science statements, especially when they're hateful towards women’.

"Many women who do not dress modestly… lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes," Mr. Sedighi told Iranian media on April 16.
