Or rather, nude candidates. A small women's political party in Poland is getting a lot of free publicity by posting a "nude" picture of their candidates for parliament. The posters do not actually show anything, of course but they are getting international buzz from the stunt.
WARSAW (AFP) – A new Polish women's political party risks shocking the majority Catholic country by plastering nude posters of their female candidates for the upcoming October 21 parliamentary election.
Seven women, including Women's Party (Partia Kobiet, PK) founder and president, writer Manuela Gretkowska, have launched their campaign with nude posters of themselves with the logo "The Party of Women. Poland is a Woman" masking their private parts.
The poster also incorporates their electoral slogan: "Everything for the future… and nothing to hide."
The poster can be seen at the Partia Kobiet website. It is safe for work unless your company has an extremely strict policy – use your judgment.
UPDATE: I do things like this just to torment my loyal commenters. Here's Hillary's bust.
Partia, Partia, Partia!
MY EYES!! MY EYES!! I CAN’T SEE!! EVERYTHING IS SO DARK ALL OF A SUDDEN!!
Mwalimu, I would be saying the same thing if HRC had been posing among them, or maybe I would have turned to stone first?
I just updated the post, Feeblemind. With a link to Hillary’s bust. Because I care.
Before I look, excuse me while I don sunglasses and cover myself with tinfoil. The bust may be emitting death rays.
I use it to keep varmints away from the garden. They make great lawn ornaments after they turn to stone.
*crack*
You owe me a new monitor:(
*barf*
…and keyboard.
I always wondered where stone lawn ornaments came from…..
I finally did look, Gaius. ooooooooooooh, wince, cringe. I thought this was a family site and you did not link to pornography? Oh wait. It’s ART. Yeah. That’s it. ART. My bad. Like those x-rated ‘art’ theatres that used to be on the seedy side of town back in the 70s. If I was just a little more enlightened, I would have seen that it was art straight away.
Sorry about that. But we are all about the art here, after all.
That and penguins, of course.
Im defense of the sculptor, he didn’t have much to work with. Seeing that sculpture, I do almost feel sorry for HRC, but don’t let the adverb escape you.
