Scandal

Carrie Prejean, 
the anti-gay-marriage beauty queen, 
so some of her breast is exposed. 

(For what it's worth, I'm not linking the photo, just the story.)

The pose does look as if it's designed to appeal to heterosexual males. No hypocrisy there, of course!

Her alleged hypocrisy has to do with her Christianity. I'm open minded on this topic. It strikes me that there are many forms of Christianity that are accepting of displays of bare skin. You can find pro-modesty anti-lust passages in the Christian scriptures, quite easily. But, manifestly, many American Christians don't embrace these passages at face value. Which is fine with me.

The human form,
glowing and warm,
is often good for a media storm.
