In approximate chronological order:
* Get a life, neighbours.
* The Venus de Milo does not have those abs. Or those breasts, although I'm willing to put that down to technical limits of the artist in this medium. This "is" the Venus de Milo in the sense that both have no arms.
* she now thinks the snowy Venus looks "more objectified and sexualised" than it did before the authorities intervened. Of course. The purpose of censoring the human body is to objectify and sexualise it. The whole point of interfering was that that you attempted to use a nude female form in a non-sexual context, and you were stopped. That's a success.
* Hang on a second, the actual Venus de Milo is already wearing a sarong.
* David next year?
