Pornographer Steve Crow is defending his decision to have bare breasted women on show over ANZAC weekend.
The Erotica Expo, and Boobs on Bikes parade, are being planned for Palmerston North, Levin and Wanganui on April 23.
Parades will be held on Levin's Oxford St, and Wanganui's London St and Victoria Ave, before heading to The Square in Palmerston North.
Mr Crow says Anzac weekend was a last resort.
“Unfortunately it was the only dates that the Palmerston North Convention Centre was available and I had to weigh it up really carefully because I knew I was going to cop some backlash about it but reality was they were the only dates we could have.”
Steve Crow says ANZAC day is a special day for him - he owns the New Plymouth RSA and last year marched in the Dawn Service parade carrying his father's ashes.
