"This highly realistic sculpture has, within just a few hours of its outdoor installation, become a source of apprehension, fear, and triggering thoughts regarding sexual assault for many members of our campus community. Well that's just heterosexist thinking and anti-male bigotry that has these wimyns' panties in a wad.
You can't go around in this world thinking that every man is a potential sexual predator anymore than you are permitted to roam around thinking every muslim is a potential terrorist or every black male a potential robber.

“..... it was put up to bring attention to the work of a sculptor named Tony Matelli. ...”
1. Shows that Mr Matellis has superb technical talents, but absolutely no artistic ones.
2. Shows that the college lib arts profs are just as untalented and unproductive as we imagined.
Who in h*ll allows such junk to be purchased...or even donated?

“triggering thoughts regarding sexual assault for many members of our campus
Putting bananas on the menu for the school lunch would trigger thoughts regarding sexual assault for many at Wellesley.”
Wellesley is full of “four year lesbians” - and I humbly suggest that any thoughts of a sexual nature induced by bananas probably would include something other than male/female rape.
Further this poster posteth not(my flame suit is being cleaned).

I wonder what sort of reaction “Piss Christ” would get?

IIRC, back in their Little Rock days, Hillary took the young ladies(term used casually) upstairs first.
Bill got ‘em later.

He looks like a homo. They should get rid of it, art or not. Add some tranny attire and they would be forced to accept "him".

Well its a statue and it can’t move.
That must mean that when they see it, they want to sexuality assault it (role reversal being an impossibility. )
I applaud them on acknowledging the immorality of their thoughts.

Well with Monica and Huma being in the WH intern corps together, I wondered if there was a WH “daily double” going on.

My boys crack up for some reason when I say “undershorts.”
I think the students should make a game out of the statue, take turns dressing him up. “Do you recognize this character from ‘The Walking Dead’?”

Thanks, but I was thinking of something more threatening . . . like a statue of a young Hillary Clinton.

These are the same people who invite “Pussy Riot” to their campus and sponsor performances of “The Vagina Monologues.” I guess some genitalia are more equal than others. Or these whimpering twits are truly androphobes.

There are some great comments on the boston.com version of the article. Here's one of my favorites:
if the statue was at any other college it would already have been decorated and dressed in any number of different "outfits" with pictures of it all over the web. At wellesley they sign a petition.

It is the way the creator of the statue says “look at me..... look at me!”
