She is talking about the sex-laden ads emblazoned on Moscow billboards. Half-naked women sell everything from cell phones to faxes, from latex paint to shoes. This in a country where, 10 years ago, billboards rarely experimented beyond communist slogans or uplifting images of healthy proletarians.
Make no mistake about it: Russia is in the throes of a Sexual Revolution.
