Oh I think "feelings and love" and "nudity and sex" can blend nicely in life
and art, but as someone who has recently become a delighted (and doting) dog
owner for the first time since childhood, I'm troubled that Madonna includes
a canine in her shenanigans. Frederick the Great supposedly said,

       "The more I see of men, the better I like my dog."

I assume that's your generic, all inclusive, pre-nonsexist-language "men,"
and that Fred would have included Madonna as runner up to pleasures of a
good animal friend.
