Rearly, girls! How unedifying that our brightest and most privileged students should want to display themselves like this

Talk about making an ass of yourself! It seems that these over indulged young ladies, born with a proverbial "silver spoon" in their mouths, and with every opportunity going for them at Cambridge University, have been up to no good. What would entice anyone to strip to their underwear, post photos of their behinds, and submit them into a competition just to get attention? Are they really that shallow and bereft of male admirers that they have to resort to this to feel better about themselves?

Reaching for success: The Tab story as it appeared online

They are the cream of the academic crop, the brightest young minds in Britain. But when it comes to extracurricular activities, these Cambridge students appear to have hit rock bottom. While their predecessors have amassed dozens of Nobel prizes and other intellectual accolades, the current crop of undergraduates is focusing on a rather less taxing competition – rear of the year.

Female students at the university have submitted risque photographs of their behinds in the hope of clinching the title. They insist it is innocent fun – and male classmates are quick to agree – but critics have accused them of harming the feminist cause and the university’s reputation. 

When you think about how much women have had to give up and in some cases are still fighting for equality, you have to wonder why some of the brightest minds in the country are belittling themselves as well as denigrating the causes of their mothers for such an inane and stupid reason? In order to get attention for their arses? It's insane and ridiculous and little more than soft porn! These girls should know better but sadly don't.

Japanese man, 22, cooks his own genitals and serves them up to paying guests at a dinner party

I have to own up and say that I always thought the Japanese a bit odd in general but this really takes the biscuit! When I lived in Japan, I remember a TV show that aired during prime-time e.g. during family viewing hours where the object of the game was for schoolgirls to be catapulted unto the air by a middle aged man lying on his back to see whose panties showed the most! Err...um...yeah, right...perfect for family viewing!

Now it appears a man who had his genitals removed seasoned them before cooking them for five paying dinner party guests. Mao Sugiyama, 22, who is asexual, had voluntarily undergone surgery to have them removed. But the illustrator took his frozen penis and scrotum home from hospital and organised a grim party.

Grim: Mao Sugiyama, 22, prepares to serve up his genitals as dinner for five paying guests at a party he organised in Tokyo, Japan. He charged guests around £160 per person to eat his severed genitalia in Tokyo, Japan. They were garnished with mushrooms and parsley. Before tucking into dinner, guests sat down to listen to a piano recital and take part in a panel discussion, CalorieLab.com reported.

Mao, who goes by the nickname HC, had initially considered eating his own penis – but decided to serve them up instead. He cooked the genitalia himself as he was supervised by a chef. In a Tweet, he offered to cook his penis for a guest for £800. However, he ultimately decided to split the ‘meal’ between six guests. He wrote on Twitter: ‘I am offering my male genitals (full penis, testes, scrotum) as a meal for 100,000 yen (£800). I’m Japanese.

So, if you thought the Japanese were very prim and proper, now you know that there is something of a weirdness inherent in the Japanese psyche!
