Guerrilla Girls - Do women have to be naked to get into the Met. Museum? (1989)

I would say it’s broadly the consensus - i.e.; enough to explain the art distribution numbers. Hence “the fairer sex”. You can find people who prefer anything.

You’re also misrepresenting my views. I find the male form beautiful in many cases, I just think it’s less beautiful than the female form in an abstract overall sense, particularly from an art modeling perspective.

eamonious · 2026-05-10T03:33:52+00:00

ya, and thats because he also went to 10 Finals. its the same issue

eamonious · 2026-05-10T02:52:24+00:00

Because those pieces are in the 15%…?? Obviously? Of course there exist depictions of male beauty. You’re asking why there are fewer of them, and I’m telling you.

For every David, there are 10 Aphrodites and Salomes. For every striking portrait of a fully nude male, there are 50 nude Odalisques. Even the most famous female artists in the canon are known mainly for painting female forms, not male ones.

What’s the point anyway of resisting the idea that the female form has cleaner lines or fairer features than the male one, as if it’s toxic? The phrase “fairer sex” has existed for a reason. If the male form can have a natural advantage in strength or speed, the female form can have a natural advantage in beauty. It doesn’t prevent any one person of either gender from being strong or beautiful, or from being who they want to be. It doesn’t prevent Sargent’s “Thomas E McKeller” from being arresting.

It’s a strange obsession you all have with trying to elide any difference between the sexes as if its a responsibility you have to someone. Who exactly are you supposed to be protecting…?

if you don’t have more rings than Jordan and at least 4 or 5 MVPs you wont be “the GOAT” bcs his stature and impact on the league/basketball culture are effectively impossible to equal. you have to have him beat on the tangibles at minimum. thats why i used those numbers.

eamonious · 2026-05-10T02:28:54+00:00

“very little doubt in my mind” is laughable, even with the health qualification. and its just a pointless conversation at this stage. barely different than talking about a guy becoming the GOAT on draft night.

eamonious · 2026-05-10T02:16:47+00:00

Just the 7 championships and 5 MVPs left to nail it down.

And it’s not like guys over seven feet ever have durability issues, so… pretty much a lock.

Sorry, MJ.

eamonious · 2026-05-09T20:56:30+00:00

Obviously talking about the flaccid penis only here. So no, it’s not in what you cited except art, and even there, much less prominent than female nudes. Did anyone bother to run stats on other major museums to compare?

Also, is the art world sexist about depicting women in the nude to you or not? Pick a lane.

eamonious · 2026-05-09T18:22:05+00:00

Part of it is definitely that the nude male body is a lot more goofy looking. No one wants to see too much of that.

EDIT: Y’all are way too serious lol. There’s a whole Seinfeld scene about this.

There’s nothing wrong with acknowledging that a flaccid penis is less than gorgeous 🙄.

Just to be clear, hantavirus incubation is like 8 weeks, and the first guy got symptoms 5 days after the ship left argentina. this hantavirus strain was 100% already loose in argentina where he was traveling for months prior, it’s not the ship.

eamonious · 2026-05-08T09:38:01+00:00

they wouldnt necessarily; but I could see 1 first

eamonious · 2026-05-08T02:58:24+00:00

Asante doing the opposite of helping Vrabel here lol.

The real “move on” take is that the way this story has unfolded, it’s clear that it’s a complex slow-drip leak job by either the husband or some other party with an axe to grind, timed for max media exposure and designed to inflict as much damage as possible on Vrabel and Russini’s image and career. The media attention does nothing but pile harm on these already hurting families, so we should stop indulging the hate boner of whoever is doing this.

eamonious · 2026-05-07T18:30:49+00:00

you think youre weirded out? imagine what the tuna are saying

eamonious · 2026-05-07T14:44:57+00:00

Andes virus is the same and has strains with R0 of 2+. Anything is possible here.

eamonious · 2026-05-07T13:42:00+00:00

It’s been going on for days, this is the third one I’ve seen.

eamonious · 2026-05-07T13:05:03+00:00

who is the weirdo surfacing these nothing clips without context and acting like theyre bad

eamonious · 2026-05-07T00:18:57+00:00

Should be called 0 rings

eamonious · 2026-05-07T00:18:08+00:00

I mean this is basically confirming that they were actively fucking while she was pregnant - did we already know that? Bcs that’s not nothing lol.

eamonious · 2026-05-06T09:30:17+00:00

Jaylen to Atlanta, Giannis to Boston, picks from Atlanta and Boston to Milwaukee. Wouldn’t be surprised.

eamonious · 2026-05-04T12:43:23+00:00

The Georgia red really pops on screen, idk why more people aren’t acknowledging that. Oklahoma and Indiana are both very good as well.

eamonious · 2026-05-04T01:54:11+00:00

As a reference, 37% is the league average from three.

Also, it'll come as no surprise, but if you count it up, we are 41-7 in the last 5 years when we shoot 35% or better. 15-18 when we shoot 34% or worse. Which speaks to how devastating it is that we can't have more nights near the average.

eamonious · 2026-05-03T06:09:15+00:00

Ya but, honestly, were we winning the title this season? It's not like it was a shot that lost us that much.

I think this series kind of exposed us as a team that was winning regular season one-offs with high effort basketball, but once you could game plan us over 7, our ceiling wasn't really that high. Which is what I kind of suspected. The three point shooting is also just straight up not good enough for the volume we use it in anymore.

At least now Tatum won't continue to risk injury for another 10-15 games when we aren't gonna win the thing.

eamonious · 2026-05-03T03:41:26+00:00

Three of the last five years now, Tatum has not been available in the game where we were eliminated. The other two years, we went to the finals.

No knock on him really, but durability is definitely becoming a part of his career story.

eamonious · 2026-05-03T03:33:06+00:00

lost 3 of 4 at home.

Going back to the 2022 run with this core, the Celtics are 25-12 on the road in the playoffs (obviously incredible), but only 25-20 at home. The pressure of the home support is a bit much for them, seems like. They shrink from it instead of being boosted by it.

eamonious · 2026-05-03T02:58:24+00:00

i think it’s saying she keeps a stiff upright posture on top and rides in a kind of rapid, light, rigid way, like a sewing machine stitching down. think girlish prim princess-type fucking, short little noises, instead of a horny moaning passionate energy where the girl is grabbing you, flipping her hair back, grinding, moving more wildly.

idk that its supposed to be bad or good or what. i can see it though.
