I find Mary somewhat sexually erotic. I guess it's the whole virgin thing. It's like she's teasing everyone with her virginity.

I have something to say about this, but I don't want to derail the thread. Short version: The Virgin Mother archetype goes back into prehistory.

Interesting how each country describes Marys physique differently. The Vatican depicts her as white European while in Mexico the call her "la virgen morena". She look native around those parts.

Born in about 570 CE in the Arabian city of Mecca, Muhammad was orphaned at an early age; he was raised under the care of his paternal uncle Abu Talib.
