Bless Me Father! Meet the Pinup Priests of the Eternal City

Bless me Father, for I am having sinful thoughts…

You’d imagine that in Rome of all places, lusting after the local Padre might be something to be frowned upon.

Not so, it seems, with the men of the Vatican fine fodder for the womenfolk to swoon over. A dozen of the finest men in collars even make one of the Eternal City’s most popular souvenirs each year; Calendario Romano.

One of the star's of the 2014 Calendario Romano. Bless.

Now in operation for a decade, the calendar still has the power to (pleasantly) surprise tourists, including Her.ie reader Aoife who is currently travelling around Italy.

You can keep your firemen and your sexy farmers, for 2014 it’s all about the pinup priests.  We’ve already asked Aoife to bring one home for the office. 

 

Hat tip: Our pal Aoife sent us this one on Twitter – thanks Aoife! If you’ve spotted something weird or wonderful you think should feature on Her.ie, get in touch! You’ll find us on Twitter here, on Facebook here or you can drop us a line to [email protected]!
