Save the Turtles - Surprising Sex Story
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/08/0825_050825_...
     
August 25, 2005?"My man doesn't need turtle eggs," says a poster featuring Argentine model Dorismar, "because he knows they don't make him more
potent."
The scantily clad beauty is the star of a new campaign aimed at protecting endangered sea turtles in Mexico. But women's rights groups aren't so sure
sea turtles need Dorismar.
The Mexican government declared sea turtles a protected species in 1990. Poaching continues, however, partly because many Mexican men believe sea
turtle eggs, eaten raw with a pinch of lime and salt, are aphrodisiacs. Black market trade in adult turtles' meat, flippers, and shells also helps
keep the animals in peril.
California-based conservation group Wildcoast co-developed three posters featuring Dorismar, including this one released this week. Designed to
denounce the turtle egg myth, the posters have drawn ire from women's rights advocates, who say the saucy images promote sexual stereotypes more than
wildlife conservation.

Pam or p.e.t.a.!!!
Just went into amarillo, Texas downtown and lo and Behold a giant Billboard with pamela Anderson showing her Boobs!
Sign Says "Boycott Kentucky Fried chicken".. Sponsered by P>E>T>A.
As an old Fart I think about the many cold and lonley winters in that little ole farm where I had to Feed the chickens and Gather the Eggs. Fryers
were Killed, Cooked, and Canned for the winter, sometimes the only thing we had to eat!!!
Now KFC is serving chicken Dinners to the victums of Katrina while the P>E>T>A Freaks are trying to get more money from the UNLEARNED.
