I’m not trying to be tacky, but honestly, if I had as much cellulite on the back of my legs as Mrs. Obama does, I would not advertise the fact.

Why is it that every figurine of a woman has to be some sort of goddess of fertility thing or whatever .....why not just a figurine???? Why is it always some sort of sexual thing?

The find suggests that women had a high social status in the region at the time the figurine was made, Erek explained... Unlike under islam, you moron Erek!

They don’t know. It’s a just a shortcut, to assume that all artifacts that aren’t of obvious practical utility are “religious.”

But it seems all objects are of some sexual thing they say ... why can’t it be just an artistic subject?
