Boob-Aid > Ice Bucket Challenge Any Day Of The Week

Have you been guilted into doing that god damned ice bucket challenge yet? Yeah, me neither. I'm not having it, and neither are these Japanese porn stars apparently, as they've put together a much better fund raiser called Boob-Aid.

According to MTV.com, these nine ladies have decided to generously offer up their best assets in the name of charity...

...for 24 consecutive hours, nine adult film actresses will let dudes fondle them in exchange for a donation to an AIDS foundation. 

“I’m really looking forward to lots of people fondling my boobs,” said Rina Serina, one of the porn stars, in an interview with the Tokyo Sports newspaper. “But I would be very happy if you would please be delicate.”

One element of the story which MTV overlooked (I know, shocking, right?) is that this fund-raising effort is actually celebrating its 12th year and what's more, this is a televised event. All of this is according to The Nation (link below).

The event, the 12th since its launch in 2003, will be broadcast on adult cable television, with punters donating to the anti-Aids campaign in exchange for a feel.

It comes after sexist heckling of a Tokyo assemblywoman hit the headlines, highlighting old-fashioned views towards women that still permeate Japanese society.

Lawmakers from Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s ruling party sparked a public outcry in June when they subjected Tokyo assemblywoman Ayaka Shiomura to sexist taunts, shouting "Why don’t you get married?" at her during a debate on motherhood.

Squeezing boobs to help AIDS research and combat misogyny? Damn, I wish I was in Japan this coming Saturday.
