Las Vegas NowCalendar Pokes Fun at Mormon Mom Stereotype
The latest installment of a calendar series that pokes fun at Mormon stereotypes is putting a twist on motherhood.
The "Hot Mormon Muffins: A Taste of Motherhood" calendar features 12 mothers who claim membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in vintage pinup picture poses. Each month also has a muffin recipe.
It's a companion piece to "Men on a Mission" the three-year series of calendars which featured 12 male returned church missionaries who doffed their signature white shirts.
Last year, a dustup over the calendar ultimately cost its creator, Las Vegas entrepreneur Chad Hardy, his membership in the church and his diploma from the church-owned Brigham Young University.
Hardy says the projects are designed to shake up stereotypes that paint Mormons as stuffy.
