Mr Red BS: TV prog- nude photo- by Lewis Carroll??? (56* d) RE: BS: TV prog- nude photo- by Lewis Carroll??? 06 Jan 17


Vaguely remember that live-in dons couldn't be married

Deans were exempt, clearly. Or we would not have the subject to discuss.

On the subject of nakedness and genitalia, what about all those cherubims carved around monuments, in churches. Male I grant you, but naked and revealing. And for adults, fig leafs (often). What does that tell us about the Victorian moral divide?

And photography was new then, expensive and a hobbyist, arty thing. But cherubs could be depicted more simply than hammer & chisel, or paint that had to be manufactured by the artist from oxides and gums.

Gary Glitter? He will be judged as a rather evil Gaddfly (sic).
Analogous to Actor Managers who toured with their 12 year old "neices" of Victorian times. How those times have changed!
