Well, Janet, due to the subject, it seems evident that in such
exhibition you may encounter nudes.
Those who want to "protect" their children or are allergic to
nudity must have been warned well before entering the show, why did
they go there and complain after ?
The *very* surprising thing for me is that this society wants to
make an exhibition on what some consider a sensitive subject and
reacts heavily on the first negative reaction.
The director just didn't assume his job, if she has a problem with
nudity then she should organize exhibitions on landscapes, flowers
or others ...
I hear you. That's something only the director can answer. But
she's the director and it's their gallery.
I absolutely agree with you when you say that some just like a good
fight, there's a real war going on between moralists and the rest
of the world. I'm part of the rest of the world and will not let
them do without reaction.
And no, this not only a US war, moralists are everywhere ...
Claudio,
You state that well. Some call it a "cultural war", and trust me -
everyone is pulled in, in some way. It's troubling on every level,
it has become very black and white... no fence riding allowed. That
really is where the war lies, isn't it? In morality!
Yes, moralists are everywhere - as are imoralists. And I wish
everyone could see how easily and clearly you've defined it, because
ultimately, everyone of us chooses which side we're on in every
choice we make and at all times!
Sincerely and without shame,
Janet Gable Cull
