    I don’t think I would want to see that on a subway really… No. I wouldn’t actually…

    A subway pole is the last thing I want to touch, much less wrap my nethers around.

    I wasn’t wild about the whole “sweaty near-nekkid person flouncing around in close quarters” premise in the first place, but then reading through these comments - oy vey - the thought of someone “wrapping their nethers” around a subway pole is enough to send the germophobe in me into a catatonic trance … I would certainly be happy to be spared that “goddess’” blessing =P

    Oh man. The germs…the amount of germs in subways can make anyone double over and cry.

    Hopefully she won’t run into an undercover officer…..

    We have seen people taken off the car and ticketed for just having their feet on the EXTREME edge of the seat in front of them even if the subway car was half empty. - and even drinking a cup of coffee on the platform.

    But you have to wonder what types of environments people like that come from - to not be embarrassed and to be so focussed on their dramatic goals.

    Perhaps they are so determined to get discovered that they will do whatever novel thing it takes to get noticed after years of frustration.

    And it is working - she got on YouTube and Neatorama

    Ugh someone push her out of the subway (safely to the platform of course) at the next stop, please!

    Nothing worse than women who think they’re gods gift to men. *Catty meow*

    This is the kind of thing that gets a swift, slamming response from the authorities? I thought only Americans were uptight about the human form, sexuality, and strangers interacting.

    Remember friends, killing is rated R (or more likely now, PG-13), while making love is rated X. Which is more offensive? Which is the better part of human nature.

    Thank Gods Burning Man is only a month away!

    I can understand someone wanting to get a point through, but really, some people would hate having that forcefully being seen. I’m fine with sex porn all of that. I just would rather keep it in my home, I get sick enough of lingerie ads all over the city. FFS if I wanted to look at that stuff it’s on TV all day and in so many magazines. And porn costs 1 dollar for a bargain book.. woo.. so f-cking what.

    Weird.
    I’d be more concerned about what germs she’s picking up rather than what she’s leaving behind.

    Although I can imagine the conversations.

    “Honest, honey, I don’t know where I got that herpes. All I did was ride the subway!”
