Follow me on:

A promotional poster of a giant nipple dripping with milk and the words Québec All Dressed is causing controversy... but not because of the nudity. A number of French language advocates have complained about the English expression used on the poster, while fewer folks have a problem with the photograph itself. Interestingly, the exhibit being advertised deals with food, rather than the nude photographs you might expect.

Wow, that’s really interesting, I never knew Quebecois were THAT proud of their French!

Yup, we are, but on the other hand, we have no problems with showing nipples. I think that makes perfect sense.

What was the ad for, anyway? The dairy lobby?
