• The homoerotic art of Arnold Friberg in the Salt Lake Temple Visitors Center

I'm unfamiliar with any Friberg art that could imply homoeroticism. Can you give me a specific reference?

Imagine you are attracted to the male form and you are sitting in church surrounded by these:

Funny story. In high school I gave one of my (closeted) gay friends a copy of the BOM. He said he really liked it. Most of these pics are in there.

So apparently women in the church are having the same problem viewing these paintings??? If just the partially unclothed male body is such a turn on for women then the church must really be in the dark here.....this would practically be porn for women, right?

Then you're telling me this is an issue of people showing a little thought discipline?

It's been known to happen.

But isn't it funny that a church that is so homophobic and sexually repressive decorates it's halls with very ripped very shirtless men?
