Prove it [/quote]

Go buy the book from a bookstore and see.  But don't post the pic here, it's NSFW.[/quote]

Better keep your kids out of museums with Ancient Greek art and pottery since that's where the drawing came from.  :roll:

When are you freaks going to try to close down the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England for displaying such smut? It's only been there since 1683.

"Freaks"?  You're the one defending images of pedophilia.

IKR, please show me Ancient Greek exhibits at a museum where there are depictions of sexual activity involving underaged.  Yeah, ancient art has some depictions of sexual activity, like Kamasutra, for example, but this involves adults, and isn't something sold to children or available at school libraries. [/quote]

Go to the Smithsonian. Not only can you see the Greek man on kid thing but you can also see a lot of Indian hanky panky...sometiems with elephant-men. (Dear Indian God; Please forgive me for forgetting your name and typing something crass like I just did. Thank you. Sincerely yours, Larla, a Christian who doesn't want you pissed at her in case she's wrong about the religion thing)[/quote]

Can you please point me to the specific "man on kid" exhibit at the Smithsonian you are referring to? I had visited several, but haven't noticed it.. hmm... I am calling bullshit on this. I have seen plenty of naked statues and paintings, but sexual images are usually not on public display at the museums, maybe in the archives, and printed versions are available for sale.  [/quote]

Ancient porn was definitely a thing. And not just standard adult m / f.  People have written dissertations and theses about it.

The Smithsonian doesn't have much by way of ancient Greek/Roman art. But see this example from the British Museum of older men and youths: https://www.britishmuseum.org/collection/object/G_1865-1118-39

Here's this on view at the Metropolitan Museum: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/256912

Google Zeus and Ganymede! https://artuk.org/discover/stories/divine-homosexuality-ganymede-and-antinous-as-queer-icons-in-art

Pompeii and Herculaneum have a ton of erotic/pornographic art.

Even more erotica

I looked at these, and it's not what you described, there are no scenes involving underaged or geared towards the underaged.  The "threesome" is a scene where an adult couple is engaging in a sexual act while the woman is holding what is obviously her young child.  It may not even depict a real scene but may be an abstraction of a family unit. It's definitely not a threesome, lol.   The other ancient depictions are mainly nudity, not really much else going on.  And you mentioned Smithsonian, did you see anything there on full display depicting sexual acts with underaged catering to tourist crowds with little kids?

And how is any of this an excuse to promote these books, are you really comparing this to art? Ok, then maybe the state of VA can put them into some dusty corner in a museum  :lol: [/quote]
