"This poster which was designed for Italy&amp;#8217;s rape crisis helpline, Telefono Donna, to bring attention to International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women (November 25), which it certainly has done.&amp;#160;However, much of that attention is of the unwelcome kind. The image has been criticized and condemned as sacrilegious by Milan&amp;#8217;s conservative politicians, where the poster is planned to be posted at 500 locations throughout the northern industrial city. &amp;quot;I&amp;#8217;ll do everything in my power to stop this poster going up,&amp;quot; said city councilor Maurizio Cadeo. After condemning the poster as &amp;quot;blasphemous&amp;quot; critics felt it would offend the religious beliefs of many Italians. &amp;quot;We&amp;#8217;re calling for the poster to be withdrawn because an important day like this should not be debased by such a sexual provocation,&amp;quot; said councilor Carlo Fidanza, a member of the right-wing National Alliance.&amp;quot; Telefono Donna rape helpline President, Stefania Bartochetti, was surprised as there had been no objections raised in other Italian cities. &amp;quot;As a Catholic I can&amp;#8217;t see anything offensive or blasphemous. We chose a strong image to encourage more rape victims to break their silence,&amp;quot; she said. &amp;#8216;Who Pays For Man&amp;#8217;s Sins?&amp;#8217; asks the text on the poster together with a caption which reads &amp;#039;Only four per cent of women who suffer sexual violence report their assailants.&amp;#039; One good thing, controversy stirs attention, and more attention brings about conversation.&amp;#160;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
