We aren't american, and you would never get that many Irish women to run down the streets in their bras.

It would be like that Des Bishop sketch "Ah jaysus, I'm freezin'!"

If they do it at UCLA what odds they do it at UC Davis too? Maybe UCD already HAS a tradition in this...

I do recall once walking to Quinn from Merville and seeing a guy running past me, being filmed by other lads doing a lap of the building... completely naked. I just shouted "well done, you!", and walked on, thinking 'Christ, this is SO much better than boarding school...'

Totally!He's actually drooling!:)

I am actually organising something similar to this for UCD. I am organising a positive body image day/week next year and I plan in getting as many people,men and women as possible in their underwear for a big fun photoshoot. Not in a sexual way but to try and make people a bit more confident in their bodies. We dont want tans,toned thigh etc we just want normal,real Irish bodies and for people to be relaxed in their own skin cos Irish people are so body conscious!

That's unfair. So because somebody may be attractive and relaxed in their own skin, they can't do it?
Are these people abnormal and not Irish or something?

I think inclusion of everyone would be much fairer.

I can see that idea going well. Panda there on her own me thinks!

Notre Dame used to do it. It was called the Bun Run. Think it took place every year during Rag Week, they'd meet at a spot in the library and run through the college bollock naked. Heard all about it from 2 girls from UND here on exchange this term!

nobody wants to see me running around in my off-white Yfronts (except the ladies of course)

Because, amongst other things, it's racist.

Maybe it was your intention or maybe it's just badly worded, but as written above, it's a pretty poorly thought through idea.
