    It's artistic. Not a wardrobe malfunction... :p

    If you say so, some would say Art, others would say a parody of art, or art parody

    The mona lisa looks very similar, but more of a functioning wardrobe. Unfortunately still a 'bad hair' day.:rotfl:

    Not at all...my avvie is a fusion of gender politics with the anglo-american sexual obsession mediated through the breast.

    With an almost incidental side-twist of greek mythology and unintended consequences.

    I think I'll start looking for Midas squeezing a cloud for the next one...

    Are you referring to yourself here?

    I would also add that the Egyptian's and African countries also had a thing for the breast- Freud also had a lot to say on the subject..amongst other things.

    Freud also looked for a few mythological twists as well- I am sure the snakes/medusa twist can be debated and made to fit any theory..intentional or otherwise.

    That really does take a whole new meaning- there are many websites devoted to the subject, so i have no doubt you would find something which would suit your personal tastes.

    Are you calling me a breast? :p

    But not in the same context as the current Anglo-American one. In Africa the breast is seen as a positive - which it should be otherwise quite a number of people would have went very hungry at a rather important part of their life.

    Well this one is rather simple. Look Medusa in the eyes and you turn to stone. So where do you look?

    I have been up since the early hours today and i have the TV on in the background listening and catching up with The Royal Wedding news. I refused to watch anything before, so i can enjoy it just as it is. Quite enjoyable at the moment.

    Have a good day everyone Bob :D
