The wickedness that is women's nipples

[dalekboy]

Just a reminder that women's nipples in art should be covered, lest we head down the slippery slope towards the death of civilisation as we know it.

Personally, I'm in favour of the death of civilisation as we know it.

That's what got me. Las Vegas!?!?!?? I'm stil trying to figure that out.

Brings to mind Stephen King's The Stand though.

What in particular about The Stand? Haven't read it.

I do like that the article points out that this same town ran a 'What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" campaign at one point. Yeah, so painted nipples will lower the moral tone of the place.

The fact they didn't even ask the artists back to paint the pasties on annoys me no end. The stickers look crap, and just whacking them on there is disrespectful to the artists.

Unless I am getting my SK's mixed up (which is always possible), it *is* about the end of the world, but eventually a whole bunch of survivors end up in Las Vegas, and it's the whole religious zealots vs the hedonists thing.

I don't understand pasties, they look stupid and you don't need much imagination to guess what's underneath.

[purrdence]

And how many see the word 'pasties' and think of the pastry? *teehee*

[vegetus]

Mmmm... cornish pasties...

[dalekboy]

But nipples and areola are things of evil. So if you cover them, it reduces the evil.

Oh, but they're only evil on women. Male nipples are pure and good.

Exactly how are pasties less offensive and less suggestive than nipples, the things that feed babies? I love how warped out sense of decency is.

[dalekboy]

It's crazy, isn't it?

It's like movies. You can torture people, shoot old ladies in the head, blow up children, but don't show a breast, that's a terrible, disgusting thing to do.
