A stripper who danced on the poles of Santiago subway trains to challenge the prudishness of Chilean society has been arrested during one of her lightning performances.

Monserrat Morilles, 26, surprised subway riders all week stripping to skimpy underwear, but she refused tips.

She said she was protesting a lack of tolerance in Chile, one of Latin America’s most conservative societies where the first generation since the Pinochet dictatorship is reaching adulthood.

“This is just a beginning. We are starting an idea here that will grow and be developed further,” she told Reuters as police and subway guards surrounded her.

I’d be happy just to have mass transit. I could commute without exciting entertainment.

    Maybe that’s how we should get Americans on mass transit.

    If that kind of content is considered to be ‘Not safe for work’, then we really are in trouble. I could understand it if someone swore, but that was shown on daytime television news.

    I’d be happy just to have this energetic free spirit at home. Then I wouldn’t want to commute.

    More amazing to me… Chile has a subway??!?

    The secret for life in the city is going to be good cheap mass transite. Either that or the problems with electric cars is going to get sovled, cheap and effective batteries/capaciters will be for sale.

    At $8 or more a gallon I don’t think most people are going to be able to keep on doing things they way they have in the past.

    Sure there is plenty of oil still in the ground but getting it out isn’t going to be cheap and we and Europe aren’t the only ones that get to use it any more.

    Pole dancers are optional.

    #2 – you obviously don’t work in a corporate environment. Dickens would be considered exotic reading matter.

    May be if you stop living under a rock, you’ll notice more things.

    Wondering if Chile’s society will grow to be like Spanish one. Woooo!!

  9. Stephanie says:

    “Body is kinda average”?!?!?!

    Since when did this turn into a forum about what she looks like rather than what she did?

    Maybe in Chile the men are more for the ‘real’ look rather than some tanorexic fake boobed bimbos. She was stripping for political reasons rather than an 8 ball.

    You are a moron.

    When I travel, I’m often surprised how some developing countries have BETTER mass transit than most American cities.

    Damn the anti-tax conservatives who been blocking infrastructure development ever since Reagan.

  13. #9 – Stephanie

    Pedro is gay. Don’t pay any attention to him. He hates all women.

    Yes, I am going to hell.

    I’m having that discussion in the other post about the Colombian women who posed naked.

    I honestly believe this: guys who are too picky about women are unwittingly outing themselves.

    Totally straight guys are not very picky.

    Of course we have our preferences but most women are interesting to us, except for some extreme exceptions.

    This is actually something I think some women don’t understand. They think a few extra pounds or some other flaw will make turn the guys off.

    Not the straight ones.

    #15 – Quite possibly the deepest thinking ever on this blog. Well done.

  17. GregAllen says:

    Thanks!

    I thought about this a lot when I was in school.

    Some of my friends were such jerks about the girl’s looks.

    Later I figured out that those same guys had pretty serious sexual issues.

    #9 So, if it’s for political reasons is ok?

    And, where’s the politics here? she just wanted people to accept public nudity.

    Where’s the average body? no curves neither side nor behind & fake boobs.

    #13 Not yet. Just when Jesse Jackson gets to me and severes my nust, which I fathom will happen after he does the same to Oby.

    #15 Maybe you’re just jealous ’cause I have better cattle to pick from.

    If you offer food to a kid, it might not eat because he’s already eaten a lot of candy, with more candy wating for him later.

    pedro! Did you get your iPhone 3G activated yet? ;-)

  20. bobbo says:

    #17–Greg==I think you have part of the curve figured out==the gay “end” of things, but the other end has eluded you.

    Every swinging dick is just not the same, and the polymorphous pansexuality of the male sex has many degrees of perversity.

    When in boot camp, the military would not march us when it was raining. Drill Sargent said they lost too many men to guys fucking mud puddles.

    So–I think normal,healthy straight men do have some beauty standards when it comes to the women, the mud puddles, and the goats they take to bed. Its why god created beer.

    I had a work mate once who was married to a real fat ugly woman making the one in this thread a beauty. He used to laugh saying she appreciated his attention like no one else he had ever been with. Everything was fine until she caught him screwing the family dog.

    I’d be careful what you call straight.
