The U.S. has similar restrictions on nose art.

'During the Gulf War, sexually provocative art was removed before an aircraft was deployed to Saudi Arabia to avoid offending inhabitants of the area. Bikinis were painted over to became long black dresses. After the war, artists restored the images to their original state upon the request of the crews and pilots (Walker, More, p. 34).
After the Gulf War and after the wave of negative public opinion, the military ruled against portraying women on aircraft. Nose art was removed from all 319th Wing and 384th aircraft in 1992. On the "Queen of Hearts," the name remains without an image.
Painting an image requires a more formal procedure today than fifty years ago. The crew submits its idea to the crew chief, who presents the design to the wing commander for approval (Ethell, p. 173). Crews still derive a sense of pride and identification with an aircraft through its name and art. Given its past history, nose art, sanctioned or not, is bound to recur in one shape or another in the future.'
ping for later
Whose culture is it? The head-choppers’? The man-haters’?
Counting down before that one goes bye-bye lol

Adultery is cheating on ones spouse. I don't think G*d intended for the single men to ignore single women. Otherwise they wouldn't end up married and propagating the species.
And He very much wanted us to go forth and multiply.
Yowza :-)
NO. Load every everlovin’ aircraft that is capable of carrying a payload with containers filled with dead pigs. Have them fly en masse over every Islamic nation and drop.
Send them to hell.
Hell yeah!
Are you saying God wants unmarried men to ogle and focus upon numerous women, to get sexually stimulated?
