Art and Erotica


Cupid and Pysche

Ok. Now I have got your attention. I had to blog this nonsense on art and the human reaction to the nude form.

"For tourists here, the classical nude can seem like wallpaper, one particularly abundant commodity in the full Italian experience, to be chased then checked off somewhere between Chianti and Santa Croce.

But Dr. Graziella Magherini, a top psychiatrist in Florence, urges caution all the same. The nude, she warns, can be dangerous to one's mental health."

Click here and read the entire article.

What is the implication? People cannot handle the nude form? What about all those surfing on the web for their daily kicks? Hmmmm..... Seems like dodgy science to me. Or maybe the museums are desparate for entrance fees, so, they are resorting to the tried and surest form of advertising. SEX. Ooh.....

OK I figured out how to color a word to make it a link to a different site. However, I did everything it said about adding your blog link to my side bar but it won't show up.
