    SANTIAGO (Reuters) - A stripper who danced on the poles of Santiago subway trains to challenge the prudishness of Chilean society was arrested on Thursday 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.


    The professional pole dancer worked quickly all week to avoid arrest, getting on at one station, finding a subway car with no children on it and stripping in time to exit at the next station.


    Chilean media dubbed her "La Diosa del Metro" or Subway Goddess. She called her performances "happy minutes."


    "Chile is still a pretty timid country," said her manager Gustavo Pradenas. "People aren't very extroverted and we want to take aim at that and make Chile a happier country."

  • There are proper places for this type of thing, and a subway isn't one of them. *Shakes head*

  • Well at least you are willing to admit that there are proper places for this type of thing, instead of just condemning the lass to eternal flames. Then again, I personally can't think of a better place than a subway. :mrgreen:

  • Actually, the appropriate place is the privacy of her husbands bedroom, and for him only. ;)

  • taint ridiculous, it's very becoming akshuly. You've got room to talk, your beard is the envy of every Mullah from Casablancee to Yarkand!


    Starnge isn't it, we always tend to think of South America as being pretty much homogenous yet there are clear cultural distinctions; in Chile this behaviour is frowned upon, yet in Brasil no-one would bat an eyelid.
