We’re glad to see that the annual Boobs On Bikes parade has once again returned to Auckland to help some of our Kiwi friends beat those winter blahs–despite yet another attempt this year by breast-despising meanies to stop it. We’re wondering if the organizers have any plans to franchise the event here in North America, because we could totally use some cheering up around here too. Even if it’s not winter yet.

    As a US expat living in New Zealand, this whole brouhaha has been very interesting to watch. One of the presenters on the news referred to the event as a ‘tempest in a D-cup’ last night. Ultimately, everybody involved got what they wanted. The Erotica Expo promoter and the conservative wingnuts got plenty of free publicity and a lot of people got to see some topless porn stars.

    The attitude of the judge when she handed down her decision not to grant an injunction banning the parade was interesting too. Her body language was screaming ‘why are you idiots wasting the court’s time?’ She pointed out that the parade might be tasteless but its harmless. They’ve done this for years and there have never been any issues, despite the fact that tens of thousands of people have turned up.

    The wingnuts are threatening to continue their fight to stop the scourge of topless porn stars parading down Queen Street once a year. Your humble poster’s prediction? Nothing is going to change. The parade will happen again next year and both sides will continue to garner free publicity.

    God defend New Zealand. :)

    How bizarre. How bizarre, how bizarre; how bizarre.

    Jesus, now I find out Kayden Kross got punched in the face by some nutter. Please don’t hold that against NZ, porn stars of the United States! This was one loony out of 100,000 well-behaved attendees. Please?
