Scorned girlfriend vents fury on Net

LONDON (Reuters) - Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned -- and what better way to avenge a cheating boyfriend than to post pictures of him on the Internet cavorting in her silky red bra and pants.

The 22-year-old Briton, who identified herself only as "The Pimptress", said that boyfriend Tom had asked her never to show the snaps of him in various poses wearing her shiny red underwear.

"Guess he shouldn't have cheated with my best m8," she wrote, using text message-speak for mate.

"Women who strive to be equal to men have NO AMBITION," she posited on the site, www.uboot.com/u/pimptress.

The picture gallery of 20 snaps includes shots of "Tom" trying to squeeze on a pair of girl's cowboy boots and putting on makeup.

"I recommend using the red lipstick, you can use it to write 'I'm scum' across your forehead," the "Pimptress" writes in her caption.

Beau Blushing As Scorned Girl Vents Fury on Net

LONDON (Reuters) - A British woman has published photographs of her boyfriend wearing skimpy panties and a bra on the Internet to avenge his cheating ways.

The 22-year-old, who identified herself only as ``The Pimptress,'' said boyfriend ``Tom'' had asked her never to show the snaps of him in various poses wearing her shiny red underwear.

``Guess he shouldn't have cheated with my best m8,'' she wrote, using for the word ``mate'' the abbreviated text message language popular for communicating by mobile phone.

The picture gallery of 20 snaps includes shots of ``Tom'' trying to squeeze on a pair of girl's cowboy boots and putting on makeup.

By early Tuesday the Web site, www.uboot.com/u/pimptress, had received nearly 6,500 hits, or visits by Internet readers. After it was featured in the best-selling daily tabloid The Sun, that number was rising fast.

Okay X heres the latest. A report about a woman who took revenge on her cheating boyfriend by posting pictures of him on the internet wearing just womens unerwear was a hoax.The company involved has revealed it fabricated the story to "stimulate discussion"and to plug its services.It invented the scenario of a cheated woman-who calls herself the Pimptress on her site-revealing how her ex-partner had an affair with her best friend.The firm commissioned a professional male model to pose in a red bra and panties and then put the pictures on its website.A spokesman said 70,000 people had lgged on to see his poses."Were sorry if we've misled anyone a but I hope everyone can see from this the fun that can be had."He added.
