there is nothing "wierd" about it. the year before last year, there was a drought for about 3 weeks during summer time, so all these women plowed their fields naked and within a couple of days, there was very very heavy rainfall, so heavy that it actauly threatend the crops. and its not called "stripping". the person who wrote the news might find it weird or whatevever, but u gotta do waht you gotta do. and some might call it superstitious, ,but its faith and if the faith yeilds results, which it often does, then go right ahead.
