Curling – a beautiful sport?

January 26, 2010 By: Nekkid blogger Category: Art, Norway, Topless, Women No Comments →

I always though curling was a boring sport. The game itself is OK, but it takes place on ice with players who are not all that attractive. I thought. But I may have to revise my opinions on the game. Maybe things have changed, or maybe I simply did not see the beauty or the beauties of the game?

The two curling players below certainly are beautiful. They are from a calendar full of similar curling players. Female, that is. And good looking!

Silvio Berlusconi appreciates beauty

May 09, 2008 By: Nekkid blogger Category: Art, Celebrity, Dagbladet, Guardian, Italy, Politician, Topless, Women 2 Comments →

image Many things may be said about Italy’s Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi (71), and, indeed, much has been said. But one thing is for sure: He likes beautiful women! An apppreciation of beauty he shares with most of his countrymen, I am sure (and a few others, as well).

Now he has appointed the very beautiful, conservative and talented Mara Carfagna (32) as his minister for equality. But not only that – at a dinner party he also said that if he had been single, he would have like to marry her. That’s a slightly unusual way for a prime minister to speak of his ministers, I would say. And, clearly also a statement his wife was not to pleased with, and made quite a lot of noise about.

Beautiful Mara Carfagna has a future, like most people. She has been a TV-hostess and a top-less model. And now she is, I would think, the most beautiful minister in any government in OECD. That really has to count for something in Italy?!?

And there is no rule anywhere stating that ministers of equality must be ugly, is there?

Beautiful naked women – art or pornography

I am European, so I view the following images as both beautiful and as art. But the line between the two is sometimes hard to draw. Especially as some pornographic pictures may also at the same time be beautiful. I guess?

So what to you think? First, Gisele Bündchen:

So? Which is what? Or are they all – what?
