Entry tags:bikers do the darndest things, body parts, maybe she's stuck to the seat, omg not depressing, public nudity, think of the children

Nothing brings the wank like naked people.
In Portland, a woman has been creating a stir by riding her bike around in the buff. People have been dialing 911 to report the naked cyclist. The police have asked her to put some swimsuit bottoms on occasionally, but as she's not breaking any laws in Portland, they can't do much. KGW, a local news station. reports on the story and has an entertaining video with the cyclist on their web page.

Amazingly, some people aren't too happy.



There's been quite a stir in the comments of this article. Everyone in Portland has to put in their two cents. Should this be illegal? Is it freedom of speech? Is everyone who doesn't mind her nudity a godless heathen?

Rocky63215: WAHHHH WAHHH WAHHHHH WAHHHH....A woman naked in downtown portland. Big deal! It's not even news. For the men who were staring and getting distracted it's probably because they haven't gotten any action lately. The women complaining is because well they're just jealous that their husbands are noticing her. For the single men or women look all you want.

Marimore: This should not be allowed! Our bodies are temples and they are sacred. They are not supposed to be exposed to everyone.

irideadonky: What an uptight bunch! One person riding naked through the streets is not armegeddon! Actually its a great change of pace. There are far more important things to worry about, as most of the children you are trying to protect could probably tell you.

Dizzylizzy29 has quite a bit to say about the naked cyclist, and wants everyone to know. Some gems:

Women, for their part, should display their beauty by dressing modestly and decently in appropriate clothes, not by braiding their hair or by wearing gold, pearls, or expensive clothes 1 Timothy 2:9

Ok, Honey...let me tell you what you just saw....A psychopath that needs to be put into a Mental Ward...ok..do you understand now dear....lol...you obviously don't have kids

She says that she is bringing the message of peace...no she isn't. She is doing the exact opposite. She is causing me and others to feel anger and outrage..I don't feel peaceful at all. She knows that she isn't bringing peace...She is a Drama Queen not a peace spreader.

Warning: kgw.com makes you register after 3 pages of comments, but there's plenty on the first three pages.

Edit: From msn.com:

Jock10827: You ignorant Americans have nothing better to do than to call the police on a naked woman. Hypocrasy at its best...no wonder you're in the position you're in and the rest of the world just laughs at you. Get a grip on life and learn to accept nature for what it is and respect people's rights. If she wants to be naked...then let her, it's HER body and HER right. Once again, hypocrasy at its best.

Zekke_7484: Actually...to the comment below. If you go back to Adam and Eve then the only reason we wear clothes is because we are ashamed. Once Adam and Eve ate from the forbidden tree. This has no reflection with "do unto others.."

*cracks up* Wow. They should try moving to Austria, where you can lie down perfectly nude by the river and have everyone just walk by without thinking twice about it. XDDD

Ah ha ha! This is fantastic. I'm from Eugene, OR (two hours south of Portland) and waaaay more nude-tastic. Though it gets kind of annoying because apparently when people remove their clothes they remove their ability to follow traffic laws. And then when you honk at their naked bodies which just darted in front of your car they yell at you for being a prude.

Seriously ladies, my boobies use the crosswalk, and yours can too.

I get that, too, when I give some people dirty looks for stepping out into traffic. No, I am not a tool of the system! I'm not trying to make you comply with the man! I just don't want to run you over!

HA! In Seattle, naked bicycling is part of the Fremont Solstice Parade, one of our most cherished annual events.

Hypocrasy at its best...

...spelling at its worst!

Not the worst. I've seen someone spell hypocrite 'hippocrate' before. Which led to hilarious images of the shipping and handling of hippos.

Our bodies are temples and they are sacred. They are not supposed to be exposed to everyone.

Well, that just smacks of religious elitism. Not allowing people to worship and see the true light! How rude!

...er.

(Also, this is the first time I've been called vain for braiding my hair.)

To be fair, I'm pretty sure that the braids referred to are very elaborate hairstyles which require a lot of upkeep and thus are an expense of labor that wastes time.

The Great Generator of Sparkle. Useful for those unexpected Twilight wanks, as well as expressing your love for your wanky, wanky city.

Due to our WS rule here I didn't use the great Sparkle Peni.

She's a modern day Lady Godiva! (link possibly NSFW or for people sensitive to nude women on horseback)

Is it wrong that I live just outside Portland and only heard about this online?

And in the report I heard, people were calling the cops because they were concerned she'd hurt herself since she wasn't wearing protective gear. Which is more important than clothing.

Not that I care about naked bike riders, male or female...

but apparently she's a Californian that decided to 'make her statement' in Portland. *sigh*
