Shake me up Judy Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 1 hour ago, wrighty said: In another example of ‘The Simpsons did it first’, a teacher in Florida has been sacked for ‘showing kids pornography’ - an image of Michaelangelo’s David - without first informing parents of the content of the lesson. Seems we’re not the only place in the world with a hysterical overreaction to what goes on in school. Pornography starts with Art and representations of the human form. The fig leaf came long before girlie mags and the internet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two-lane Posted March 25, 2023 Share Posted March 25, 2023 5 hours ago, Shake me up Judy said: Pornography starts with Art In photography it is straightforward - if it's black-and-white (or sepia) it is art. If it's colour, it's pornography. (Not that would know about these things, but Robert Mapplethorpe published some black-and-white photos that did not go down too well with the censors. No hard-and-fast rules.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hissingsid Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 It is rumoured Susie Izzard is presenting the prizes at the prize day at a school in the West. I don’t believe a word of it but it is a strong rumour being touted around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would also be a lovely up yours to all the narrow minded people who would have any sort of issue with it. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ativa Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 “If” what is currently happening at QE2 turns out to be in any way related to all this nonsense, then that gives even more reason to make sure this sort of misinformation doesn’t get spouted and then blown out of all Proportion in the future. Energy seem to have got off lightly so far, considering they were the ones that didn’t fact check what they went public with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they reported was appalling and was the catalyst to so many going bat shit crazy over it.
