"...but brick and mortar museums have no such filters. Children go to the Louvre everyday, and I have never heard of a child being harmed by viewing the breasts of the Venus de Milo."
"teaching them that nudity is NOT a dirty thing that one has to HIDE in a closet in order to stay "respectable", but something to live honestly and openly,helps them grow up to become well balanced and mature adult individuals"
I wonder what makes some of you people think you have a God-given right to tell others how to raise their children? Who died and appointed you the official authority for all parenting information? Are ya'll banding together to become a composite 'Doctor Benjamin Spock for the new generation' or some such? If anyone chooses to let their children view or not view nudity, artistic, porongraphic or otherwise, what right is it of yours to same a damn thing about it? Until I see a Doctorate in Child Psychology, Pediatrics, Early Developmental Behaviour or a related field from the "Here's-how-to-raise-your-kids" chorus, their advice is going straight into the oval file in the corner of my studio...exactly where it belongs.
