The hairy armpits pictures could(?) be an artist pointing at contemporary American standards for beauty and saying, "Hey, these standards are wrong. They're based on artificial appearances created by Hollywood. They're not based on the characteristics of real, natural women!" I didn't see this transgender picture but maybe the deeper meaning was that women are starting to use sex as a weapon for pure gratification, similar to the way males often do. I know Madonna's video "What it feels like to be a girl" poked at the different expectations our society places on males/females. I don't know if this is what Tisa means or not. I'm just capable of imagining potential deeper meanings. I, too, hope the mods aren't protecting us from deeper meanings. I was rather unhappy when they protected us from Moscas' wonderful piece involving an ancient mythical creature that happened to have some physical appearance characteristics similar to those of a prepubescent human female. I'm imagining possible deeper meanings in an effort to be fair-minded. I acknowledge that it's completely hypothetical. I don't know Tisa well enough to say what she's thinking. I do know there are some artists that stretch things pretty far.

Before they made me they broke the mold!
