Harvey Weinstein approves.
Or would if he hasn’t fled to join Roman Polanski.
Attack of the 40-Foot Woman: The NC-17 Remake
Ummmm - NO!
++++
A 45-foot-tall statue of a nude woman, weighing in at 16,000 pounds, will greet visitors on the Mall for four months if activists have their way.
Go head. Objectify them womens
At least it isn't a statue of Hellary.
A lot of great pieces of artwork depict nudity.
This is not one of them.
Devil’s Advocate here:
Nude statues aren’t necessarily ‘obscene’. I’ve seen plenty of nudes, male and female, that were simply works of art, and obvious as such. Same thing with anatomically-correct statues of animals.
It’s all in the presentation.
That’ll drive the muzzies crazy.
And how many women actually have that figure? Why not a Rosie O'Donnell like figure.
How come it's a white woman?
...
What I’ve seen is not obscene. It’s simply a model of a shapely young woman in a standing pose. There is nothing lascivious, salacious, pernicious or ‘Dirty Girl’ about it.
I know why the sculptor wants to place the figure facing the White House, as though it were a ‘challenge’ of some kind to the president. That logic is pretty weak.
Sometimes a sculpture is just a sculpture.
Remember last year, when Michael Moore’s movie “Trumpland” ended up helping the GOP more than damaging it?
Maybe this little stunt will also have an unexpectedly benign effect.
LOL, there is always some shmuck, before he gets crushed, just looking up her dress...:)
Guys - just take a page from the left’s playbook
It makes me FEEL threatened and “triggered”.
So now I can go throw poo, and sheep blood on it.
then cover it with an ISIS flag
and then out some bacon and barbecue ribs on it.
I know - we have mundane responsibilities to fulfill, like work and family. But there has to be a rent-a-mob program to get this done for us.
Suggestions?
All I am going to say is, I don’t care if it’shows a giant naked woman or a giant astronaut in a spacesuit. I am not interested in such a huge statue on the lawn of the national mall. Where are they going to put it? In the lawn area to remove grassy space on the lawn? I like the open space!!!
I’m far happier having a fake naked woman on the mall than a real pant-suited one in the White House.
“they say the 45-foot-tall female nude will be an opportunity to start a conversation about violence against women.”
Well, doing something which inspires such will indeed do so.
