Shimane ,Japan ;

A replica of Michelangelo’s Renaissance sculpture David that was put up last summer is unnerving residents of a Japanese town, with some calling for the naked masterpiece to be given underpants.

Good one Simbi.

I find it somewhat bizarre that an internationaly recognized historical, replica sculpture , is suggested in Japan to be modified to hide the "private parts"

This is appreciative ART, not porno.

What about a fig leaf, a big one.

This - coming from a country that has a penis/fertility festival. I would post a link but the mods would probably block it.

Just Google "Japan Penis Festival".

I almost went to it one year . And dont forget the tanuki statues all over the place.

You're supposed to rub the balls for luck in sexual prowess . A guy thing,but theyre everywhere .

For some unknown reason Bukakke comes to mind after reading this story.

That particular David is uncircumcised and markedly under-endowed considering the Italian models Michelangelo would have used. Odd for the king of Judea.

I recall being, not shocked exactly but surprised, at seeing a billboard in Amsterdam of a frontally nude man and woman, several times life-size.

The Japanese bathe in public baths nude anyway and I never noticed any embarrassment.

I think the Japanese are jealous LOL
