antique condom rijksmuseum christian protest 2661519

A 19th-century condom printed with a bawdy scene depicting a nun and three clergymen is on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam as part of the exhibition “Safe Sex?” The Catholic foundation Civitas Christiana staged a two-day protest outside the museum and launched a petition with over 1,000 signatures demanding the object's removal, calling it a grotesque insult to God, the Catholic Church, and the Dutch nation. Right-wing publications like De Dagelijkse Standaard have supported the protest, drawing comparisons to restrictions on depictions of Mohammed.
