Political Dissent, Wetass-Style–Dare 2 Bare: Leave it to the women of Marin County, CA to devise a nude, I mean novel, style of protest. Everyone knows that in an age of Paris Hilton and media clutter if you want to get noticed you have to, well, get naked. Hence: “Naked For Peace.” What does this dangerous, subversive group do? It organizes groups of 50 or so women, who gather at a variety of Cali locales (hopefully warm), strip down and spell out protest slogans with their bodies. Creative stuff, like “PEACE,” and “NO WAR,” and “MAKE LOVE NOT WAR.” They take photos and post them on their web site. And they get lots of media coverage (see, getting naked always works). Okay, I admit this isn’t really a sport. But it does involve wet asses (and it’s funny). So sue me…
