Immodest, promiscuous women are causing earthquakes in Iran

Kazem Sedighi, a senior Iranian cleric, said in 2010 that women who wear revealing clothing and behave promiscuously are to blame for earthquakes: "Many women who do not dress modestly ... lead young men astray, corrupt their chastity and spread adultery in society, which (consequently) increases earthquakes." In response to his remarks, feminist activists initiated a viral "Boobquake" campaign, calling on women to dress immodestly to see if they could create an earthquake.
