Portland-based photographer Neil Dacosta satirized the Mormons’ politicized stance on same-sex relations by coming up with this brilliant guide of Mormon missionary positions.
If you enjoyed this gallery and like this kind of humor, you should also check out The Married Kama Sutra we previously published on this awesome site.
Could an American explain this satire to a puzzled Brit, please?
Hahahahaha
Not funny.
“Remember, there is a big difference between kneeling down and bending over”
You’re right. It’s not funny. It’s hilarious!
In the US, when Mormons reach their 18th birthday, they are expected to bicycle around door-to-door preaching their particular brand of good news for 2 years. They dress like the two guys in the pictures. The first position is called Missionary as the Jesuits taught it was the only position that should be used for procreation. That’s the joke, the Mormon Missionaries are doing it missionary style. Ha.
When the Mormon missionaries come knocking on my door, I’ll never look at them quite the same way again.
I guess it’s ok to make fun of some religions but not others. Right? To find out, you could switch “Mormons” with another religion and see what happens!
I thought it was hilarious!
Zeph, calm down. I make fun of all religions. Mormons aren’t special.
Al-nonymous – thanks, I get it now. It’s confusing because the cultural reference for that dress code in the UK is the young men who serve customers in electronic hardware shops – complete with name badges and short-sleeved shirts.
There are similar door-to-door purveyors of cults in the UK, but they either don’t have a recognisable dress code or they wear suits.
Apologies for my cultural ignorance. I’ll never look at the guys in Currys the same way.
