Alischa Ross, founder and director of Y.E.A.H (Youth Empowerment Against HIV/AIDS) wearing a dress made entirely of latex condoms.

hmmmmm I am thinking that her date for the night must have thought he was onto a pretty sure thing.

She is wearing it at a function at the Melbourne Museum which co-incidentally has one of the best exhibits on the human body and human sexuality of any museum I have seen. I may be showing my bias here but it is hard to imagine an state sponsored American museum containing such a frank and at times confronting exhibition.

The Museum like any other large organisation has a significant administrative arm and the offices of the Human Resources Branch sit above this exhibit and the internal windows look down upon it. In these days of sexual harrassment claims for displaying sexually explicit material in the workplace these seems somewhat brave and yet what other section of their administration is more appropriate to favoured with this vista.

In case you didn't know yesterday was world AIDS day, raising awareness of what is currently one of natures more effective brakes on human population growth.
