Sounds Like: A note about the cover - which was taken as part of a series of nude men in the poses of famous nude women. At first, I just liked the concept and the photo and thought it would make a great cover. I had no idea it would cause controversy. It seems while the female form is expected to be naked, draped over a couch, it is somehow "wrong" for a man to be - that was part of my determination to use it! Some men, even in the press, were horrified! Why? It's just me lying on a couch, starkers. Big deal. Get over it - I'm all for people taking their clothes off and running around. Try it next time you go to Wal-Mart.
