CALGARY - A study into why women flashed crowds of Calgary Flames fans during last year's NHL playoffs should shed light on current Canadian attitudes about female nudity, says a Calgary professor.

"There are gender role issues here," said Mary Valentich, of the University of Calgary's Faculty of Social Work.

"These women are doing something unconventional and yet they're using the traditional sexual route to express whatever they're expressing."
