If you donate at least $5 on-line to one of 4 linked Katrina-related charities,
you forward a copy of your confirmation e-mail to this site and they set up an account for you to look at various pictures of, er, breasts they have collected on their site. (They have male and female breasts.)

Or, you could just send them pictures of your own breasts, if you'd like to help with that part of the project.

That's it .... another huge storm from "God" is a brewing their way

Well since the grocery store is out of Earth Balance, mine are retreating so I'll decline :D . Do you think I could sell a slightly used 'manzier' on ebay ?

Huh? Send your breasts?

oh dk_art, I love your work. You're a fantastic artist. :)

Haha!

It seems they've updated the site to allow contributions to a 5th charity to count--The Humane Society of the US (HSUS). So, all you animal lovers and AR people can get in on the fun.

They are also offering--for a limited time only--a free account to any woman who uploads a picture of her breasts if the name of the website is written on her body and visible in the picture (unacceptable if written on a sign).

I personally think it's a bit of a sad state of affairs when you have to use the lure of naked bodies to get people to donate money to a national disaster. But I guess that's a very New Orleans sort of thing to do......they seem kind of obsessed with boobage there. :-/

I wonder if the money actually gets to where it's suppossed to go?

From what I can tell, you donate directly to the charities and then forward your receipt to these guys and they manually give you access to the boobies.

I think it's a great idea. They've raised over $10,000 so far!

When I visited NOLA, I quickly sussed out that there is Bourbon street, and there is the rest of the city. I suspect the same is true of Las Vegas.

Hey, yeah, what's wrong with boobs? Everyone likes boobs!

^^ misses the point :idea: :)

Yes, that is exactly right.

Well, they didn't "have to" do it, but I think this makes it more fun.

BTW, most of these boobies were fairly plain looking. Only a few of the women had really attractive boobs, IMHO.

Nice :rolleyes:

"They've raised over $10,000 so far!"
---------------------

Good lord! That's $5000 a boob :O

Nice :rolleyes:

I could have said that they all had wonderfully attractive boobs, and Playboy should send a photographer to do a feature on it licketysplit,
but then that would be a lie.

Unfortunately, if you tell the truth, you can't always say things that are "nice."

"They've raised over $10,000 so far!"

They have about 50 women showing their boobs, so that's 100 boobs, or about $100 a boob.

P.S. I could not find the word "manzier" in any dictionary. If you have a source/URL, I'd really appreciate it. I think I get the general idea--it's some sort of piece of military equipment that straps aroound the shoulders and upper chest like a bra--but I am vague on exactly what it is and what it is used for.

LOL , I'm sure it will be spme day. It was from a Seinfeld episode. George's father was getting rather 'endowed' in the chest region and so he and Kramer invented a brazier for me. The argument between them was whether to call it the 'manzier' or the 'bro' haha.

You see Joe, your comment about these women's boobs is one of the reasons I don't like these kinds of things because they can end up becoming an exercise in sexism. You paid your money to see the boobs because it's "fun" (your words), and then you start getting all critical about the boobs that are on there. I'm not saying you necessarily have to like what you see, but seeing as they belong to ordinary women and not playboy models, and it is for charity, you could be a bit more gracious about it and keep your criticisms to yourself.

Ah, thanks. I didn't realize the Seinfield origin. Nor did I get the brazier - bra + man = manzier connection. I did see some sites that were selling some sort of military equipment--unclear what it was for, maybe carrying ammo or something--that was advertized with the names "manzier" and "bro."

I guess I'll have to look further in some slang dictionaries to get a definition. :D

ETA: Urban Dictionary has manzier and bro (def. #s 3, 27 & 30).

Why should he? Some people have boobs that I find more attractive than others. No shame in that.

Barechested men are featured as well, so I don't see that as sexism. But I am a heterosexual, so unqualified to evaluate the men's photos.

No, I donated to one of the charities because it was a worthy cause.
I wouldn't have donated to the Nazi Party or the KKK just to see the boobies.
Seeing the boobies was just icing on the cake. And yes it was fun.

If "fairly plain looking" = "getting all critical about the boobs" in your mind, then I think you are the one with the problem. I stand by my assessment.

Seeing as I introduced this topic and seeing as I wouldn't want to be accused of tempting people to donate to gain access under false pretenses, I think that telling people on VB my sincere and honest assessment of the photo gallery was and is appropriate.

... keep your criticisms to yourself.

Practice what you preach, dearie. :lol:

Yes, I'm aware that there are bare-chested men also. And if a women had come into this thread saying that the men were rather plain-looking I would've had a similar reaction.

If "fairly plain looking" = "getting all critical about the boobs" in your mind, then I think you are the one with the problem.

Yeah, a problem with stuff that borders on sexism.

And as for your comments me practising what i preach and keeping my criticisms to myself....well, you put this in the compost heap "dearie" :-/

Someone has PMS..

jk :p

^^a sexist comment from a woman!

(too easy Marie :))
