What's good for the gander is good for the goose

As if Donnie Yen's martial arts skills were not enough, the Hong Kong actor is hoping to attract more fans by becoming a sex symbol. The 47-year-old launched a photo book at Hong Kong's book fair on Wednesday that had both women and men swooning at the size and cut of his muscles.

Traditionally, wannabe models release soft porn material masquerading as "photo books" at the annual book fair and promote them by wearing as little as possible. Organizers have "harmonized" the event by banning these types of activities and books, but that has not deterred Yen.

For his book, the kungfu star strikes a number of poses featuring the styles of various martial arts schools, including some taken at the iconic Shaolin Temple.
