I've always been an adventurous person and I knew eventually I'd want to just take off and see the world, so that is what I did. I was traveling Europe when I got an e-mail from my brother who was living in Brazil and had met a girl from New York. She told us about The Naked Cowboy, who had been performing there a long time, having fun and making good money. She suggested that there should be a Naked Cowgirl, and my brother thought I'd be perfect for the job.
I decided to just go ahead and take a risk, move from the Bavarian Alps to New York City and become The Naked Cowgirl.
My first impression of New York City? It was extremely different from the small German town that I'd just been living in. It was quite overwhelming to say the least. When I first stepped into Times Square, it was just lights, people and massive buildings and I was in total awe. It was kind of shocking. I took my breath away. The first time I stepped into Times Square was also the first time I introduced The Naked Cowgirl. I got my little outfit on and stepped out.
I wear Gina's Gems to cover my nipples, a micro-mini skirt, boots and a hat. Of course I also have my guitar. The thing is, it's quite a process for me to get ready, whereas The Naked Cowboy can just jump out of his car in his undies and go out - you know how guys are!
It's different for a girl. I have to wake up, take a shower, do my hair, put on my makeup, put my Gina's Gems on with pastie glue, and then get all my stuff into my backpack.

YEeehAw! I adore this

It's amazing that in a world
By larsmith, April 8, 2007 at 13:56It's amazing that in a world where there are so many women who take such a strong stand against the objectification of women that some here in Orato spend so much time highlighting women who willingly objectify themselves.
It's sad to see how many women are so comfortable selling one of the most precious and priceless attributes of themselves in exchange for a little attention ( and other material gains ) which will dry up as these beauties age.
It's surprising ( and yet not ) how this woman, about whom the article is "written", celebrates her licentiousness and then calls it "freedom" ... and the frequency with which Orato highlights stories which not only lack virtue but fly in the face of it.
Someday, I'll be surprised to see that Heather Wallace ( or some other staff member ) highlights a story of someone who's done the right thing, in the face of opposition, and stood for honor, dignity, justice, virtue ... you know ... some of the finer attributes in our society.
What about the Naked Cowboy?
By Heather Wallace, April 10, 2007 at 09:29What about the Naked Cowboy?
I'm glad you asked. Must be
By larsmith, April 10, 2007 at 11:17I'm glad you asked. Must be you missed how I alluded to that article, tho indirectly, in my comments above.
Considering that what the naked cowboy is doing is not more ethical / right / moral than the cowgirl, same applies to the coverage of that person. Both of these people don't know shame but should.
I've been looking at the stats that Orato keeps on the attention that Orato gets, number of readers, number of people who post comments and it seems like Orato is struggling to get credibility, let alone comments back from readers.
I can see why.
Actually Allan, our numbers
By Heather Wallace, April 10, 2007 at 14:29Actually Allan, our numbers have been steadily increasing for some months now. Every month we beat our old record and we have new registrants everyday. The community is growing and thriving. Obviously these stats aren't available to the public, which would explain the faults with your claim. Why don't you just focus on your own credibility and we'll focus on ours.
FYI, we're pretty darn stoked about our stats this month. We have a good shot at reaching 100,000 visitors this month at the rate we're going.
I'm hoping you'll contribute your piece about the science of creation. Instead of focusing on what's wrong with what everyone else is doing, why don't you just post your own story...about something other than the evils of the only thing we're born with: The Body.

Did somebody mention stats?
By Paul Sullivan, April 10, 2007 at 16:03Did somebody mention stats? I'm a world expert when it comes to Orato stats. Time to let a few out of the bag. The number of visitors to Orato has tripled in the first three months of 2007, from approx 20,000 to 60,000. The site is logging 2400 visits a day and that's increasing at a rate that makes 100,000 in April a distinct possibility. Orato is not YouTube; we ask a lot of our correspondents -- by the way, we have 2150 registered correspondents from around the world. Orato thrives on the honesty, commitment and courage of its correspondents, and it is our job to provide you with an environment that respects your stories. Orato's mission is to be a big tent: there's room for anyone who values civil discourse...
Paul Sullivan,

Wow, Heather and Paul
By larsmith, April 10, 2007 at 17:56Wow, Heather and Paul contributed something substantive. Something I said sparked must have hit a sensitive spot with them, they came to life and said something substantive.
Now if only I could get them to go back, read some of my questions and take some of my challenges, perhaps we could actually see them participate in ... um ... what were Paul's words ? "civil discourse" ?
I remember when I lived in PEI, I was writing back and forth with a gal in Moncton, NB. She told me that her high school history teacher had said something about the people in PEI lobbing dynamite at the people in NB ... and the people in NB lighting them and tossing them back.
I've been lobbing things to Heather for some time now and all I've seen her do is to check the expiration date on the delivered package. I've not yet seen her light the fuse and toss it back. She's in good company, don't doubt it. I've tossed some challenges to other respondents to different articles and other than some mockery and scoffing and a few angry words, I've not seen anyone return the volley.
I've seen Orato staffies mention discussion and ... um ... discourse ... but I've not seen them engaging in much of it.
Lead by example, folks. Show the world what yer REALLY made of.
So why don't you explain why
By Heather Wallace, April 11, 2007 at 06:53So why don't you explain why you damaged your own credibility claiming to have seen our stats, when you had not...I noticed you forgot to explain your way out of that one Allan. Why are you so keen on dissing Orato, yet you continue to be one of our most active members?
You didn't touch a nerve Allan - you just gave us the perfect excuse to toot our own horn.

Not only have I seen stats but now everyone can check out the above webpage and see for themselves.
As for me being "so keen on dissing Orato", it should come as no surprise to you that someone somewhere "out there" will show you and/or Orato some disrespect. That's life. Just as some people have dissed me and some have dissed Michelle and some have dissed the Canadian board who're responsible for refusing that gay guy refuge in Canada, and just as people have dissed the military in their treatment of Michelle, so also I've dissed Orato ... when I've felt that it was reasonable to disrespect what is disrespectful.
Your choice of words in comments directed to me has often been disrespectful. You probably feel justified in your disrespect to me. Being dissed is a fact of life. I can deal with it. Can you ?
I keep coming back to Orato because I like exposing liberals for what / who they are. I have a glimmer of a hope that out there, there's someone who'll recognize the weakness of the liberal perspective, realize that it is like a house built on sand and will themselves take a philosophical and spiritual position grounded on The Solid Rock.
I also come to Orato so that I can experience people punching holes in what I say and believe. It is a good exercise to find out where my perspective needs adjusting and correcting. It's a good thing to have people show me where I'm wrong and where I need to re-think. It's good to have my butt kicked and, at times, to get whooped. Best way to become a better wrestler is to wrestle with people better than I, best way to become a better hockey player is to play against people who're better ... and I come here, hoping to find people who are better than I am at debating an issue so I can become a better debater.
So ... be better than I am @ debating. Counter my arguements. Put forward your convictions with confidence. Show me that I've met my match. Stop hiding behind your keyboard / monitor. Say something that contributes to the discussion ... perhaps something which you think might help me change my mind about how what Michelle has done is wrong.
So far the best you've done is to diss me, mock me, make fun of my position, etc. Anyone with half a brain ( Canadian or otherwise ) can do that. You're WOMAN. You are STRONG. Now, for once, prove it :)
sorry to be the bearer of
By Heather Wallace, April 11, 2007 at 13:19sorry to be the bearer of bad news Allan, but those are not our website stats...those are specific to the forum.
Heather I stand
By larsmith, April 12, 2007 at 06:42Heather I stand corrected.
I'm happy to hear that the stats I've seen show what Orato considers improvements or progress.
It's encouraging to know that I've contributed to increased attention & responses ... maybe even readership.
I really thought i had heard
By Trisha Baptie, July 5, 2007 at 19:12I really thought i had heard the last from Mr.Smith some time ago, but alas while quietly trolling this site up he pops.
I have to deflate his ego just a titch when he says "It's encouraging to know that I've contributed to increased attention & responses ... maybe even readership"
Um, seriously don't toot your own horn to loud because the one consistant topic that comes up when people check out the site and read the forums is why is he (you) allowed to post anything??!!I'm not sure you encourage anything other than a slight snicker or two.

Re: The Naked Cowgirl: A Wholesome Act
By Anonymous, November 16, 2008 at 17:42Hey Lars,
No disrespect intended, but unless you have something nice to say, do not say anything at all.
And mind your own business.
The U.S.A. is a free country, and the cowgirl can do anything she wants, as long as it is legal, and not hurting anyone.
Also, I do not think she or anyone that does anything like that is objectifying themselves, they do not feel that way.
The human body is not an object, it is a work of art created by GOD, and there is nothing to be ashamed of in revealing it to anyone.
Enough said.
Have a good day,
Jay
