ansuzmannaz, I personally wouldn’t have an issue with it, but I think a lot of people would have been offended. I think all of those people should get the same reaction this Catholic League joker is getting here.

My response was “Wow”… I won’t try to judge it as an ad, but honestly, I think it’s great art. Absolutely amazing.

The advert doesn’t offend me personally but that doesn’t mean I agree with it. Making an advert that is designed to get some flack (flack=media attention=free advertising) is a cheap way of promoting yourself, and done often at the expense of a minority group should be unacceptable no matter who that group is.

Just a thought.

I thought it was a perfume add. I would have never thought fitness club if it was not spelled out to me. Maybe that’s just me. O well.

What I wonder, though, is how people would react if the model were female and the nuns were monks instead. Would it still be an innocent scene of the “appreciation of beauty” then?

I’m a dude. And I’m straight.

My first thought – “I really need to hit the gym ’cause I am way behind.”

My second thought upon reading the comments – “I really, really need to hit the gym ’cause I am way behind.”

Bill Donohue is one of those pathetic people who just sit around waiting, hoping and praying to be offended. As nunsploitation said, it’s his job to complain.

I don’t ever, ever, ever remember hot nuns while I was in Catholic school. This is an insult to hot women all over the world!

Those poor hot women never get a break do they.

It would have been amusing to see a likeness of Bill Donohue wearing a bra and panties sitting with the nuns admiring the male model

I just thought, hey I’d like to sculpt that model! Why can’t the nuns take up drawing? What the hell is so wrong with the human body that nuns aren’t allowed to see it and enjoy it?!

I actually think this image is quite innocent and the nuns give it a sweet quality…

But then I draw and sculpt from nude models at my work, so I tend to look at drawing sessions like this in a nonsexual way.

I’d love to work with that model, my sculpture would look great! He’s beautiful! The models playing the nuns might have great builds as well…they look like they might.
