In the heart of Minneapolis on Thursday, an unusual kind of fashion show was getting underway. Planned Parenthood of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, hosted the event “Ready or Hot: Fashion Meets Passion for Planned Parenthood,” to celebrate Valentine’s Day and raise funds for an “excellent cause.”
Here’s how the organization described it:
Ready or Hot: Fashion Meets Passion for Planned Parenthood is a celebration of love, reproductive health and fashion just in time for Valentine’s Day. It’s a fundraiser, cleverly disguised as a dance party and fashion show, with the evening’s centerpiece a catwalk by some of Planned Parenthood’s coolest cats and kittens.
Men and women you know and love, strutting their stuff for the most excellent cause. It’s a randy little Runway Show featuring the va va voom of the Valentine Season — whether you’re going out or staying in, this is what’s sizzlin’.
This “celebration of love” featured a basket of condom wallets for guests, a model named Queenie Von Curves…and this:

It’s shameful, to say the least, that Planned Parenthood would host such an embarrassing event in the name of charity. CLICK LIKE IF YOU’RE PRO-LIFE!
While organizers insisted the organization is all about “women’s health,” I wonder if all the guests attending knew that a large chunk of their donations are more than likely going to abortion services. Blogger Jill Stanek asked a good question:
Where are the abortion napkins? RT @ppmn: Informative napkins are inherently better than other napkins. #ReadyOrHot pic.twitter.com/KwBHcwtbQ4
