Suitable nose art for the 21st century...

[Cagey]

LOL!

[dragonblustar]

Would the Muslims prefer this?

Here's one for the feminist...

And here's one for the wives of the enlisted...

You know what lady. Its people like you who have neutered the male culture in this country. I am all for respecting women. I was raised never to dishonor a woman or raise a hand in anger to one. All I got from it was walked all over by my ex-wife. So I will tell you what; if you are offended by a soldier or sailor or airman who is trying to remind himself and his buddies of what they are likely dying for, you need to grow a thicker skin. You do NOT have the right to be offended by every little thing. You do NOT have the right to foist you puritanism upon others, and you most certainly do NOT have the right to CENSOR the freedom of expression of the men and women who lay their lives on the line so you can live fat, dumb, and happy here stateside. GET A CLUE!

I have always thought it interesting that the “repressed” 40’s had such risque nose art. Your story made me chuckle.

[Gideon Reader]

In retrospect I feel pretty bad, and somewhat of a schmuck for having a painting of Sylvester the Cat wearing a squadron cap and holding a screwdriver on “MY” F-86F Sabrejet, FU-627 (311th FighterBomber Squadron, 58th Fighter Bomber Wing)Osan AB, Korea 1956-57)

[GovernmentIsTheProblem]

these paintings do respect and honor women....

[Fairview]

As a Christian woman, I also find these paintings offensive.

Well, as another Christian woman, let me suggest that if you are offended, you always have the option of not joining the RAF so you won't have to see such offensive art. No one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you either to study these pictures or to read a thread where your thoughts might be compromised.

Most men don't fight for some abstract political cause. At the deepest level of their psyches they are fighting for their homes and the women back there. Let these strong heterosexual men be reminded of what they love and want.

I have never understood people who get upset about pictures of women. It’s as if they think women don’t know men like women unless they see a scantily clad picture of women on a mans locker, airplane etc. If these pictures are out of line, then all women who go to a beach in a bikini, or walk down a street with shorts , halter tops, etc. are out of line. Can’t see what the big deal is except someone wants to control everyone else.

Allies are going to be subjected to such pc censorship and sanitization, then what is it that we are fighting for?

That's my question. What's more motivating to a manly fighting force than beautiful women? I'll fight the Pope over short shorts and bikinis. Ba-donk-a-donk makes the world go 'round as far as I'm concerned.

Porn is not nice.

Pin-ups are porn? Not buying it.

Pin-ups are porn? Not buying it.

"You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell."

I was offended on 9/11 when a gang of savages killed 3,000 innocent people to show their so called god “Allah” how effing holy they were. We should be opening up Strip Clubs in Baghdad in the name of cultural sensitivity. Why are we bending so a gang of savages are not “offended”? Also, were the men who won World War II a bunch of pigs? All this on the anniversary of D-Day!

[Eurotwit]

Then there must be a lot of heroes in hell.

Cheers.

[SouthernBoyupNorth]

I find it hard to believe that a God who gave his only son to forgive the sins of man would be so unforgiving. If that is the case I say unto you thus...
HES YOUR GOD THEY ARE YOUR RULES>>>> YOU BURN IN HELL!

[redlegplanner]

Bottom line: The universe does not revolve around her.

[snarks_when_bored]

Good luck with that whole self-mutilation thing. I’ll pass.

[SouthernBoyupNorth]

Sylvester the cat? Oh come on..... there is nothing wrong with that. Sheesh.... its not like a naked Marilyn Monroe or anything....

[Mac94]

I don’t know if you realize it or not, maybe you do, but he is quoting from the Bible ... Matthew 5:28-29 to be exact. If you have an issue with what he said ... take it up with scripture .... you know ... the whole message and messenger thing.
