Nobody curtsies anymore. The most you see is kowtowing.

Karen L. Kleinfelder "The Artist, His Model, Her Image, His Gaze: Picasso's Pursuit of the Model" is good. Google books has a version but they cut out the Picasso images it's talking about, which makes it fairly worthless. Maybe a university library would have a copy.

I'm reminded also of a satirical article on how to choose your academic nom de plume, and the articles that go with it. One possibility was a video recorder given to a native tribe and observing the results, giving, among the articles resulting

The male gaze is based on women concealing that nothing is concealed.

Your wife or girlfriend with no clothes on is just your wife or girlfriend with no clothes on.

Goodbye Liz, we hardly knew ye.

And are we glad of that.

Let me have some cheesecake, with some male glaze on top.

Thanks!

I just hope that photo wasn't taken by a man. Guess it really objectifies Queen Liz. Stop looking at her like that! She's a person. Remember?

But if they're together . . . Wowza.

Even Henry VII gave Anne Boleyn a thousand days.

As with Thatcher and Reagan, perhaps Liz Truss is blazing a trail for Biden to follow..

Bad omen for Kamala. Truss was also an adulteress (adult-Truss?), and not just in the technical sense.

Typical Know Nothing on the Althouse blog- Claims the "numbers" support his dopey statement, but fails to link or otherwise document those numbers. Where were these people educated?

Doesn’t it dawn on you that excess deaths could be attributed to after affects of millions of people having had Covid,and survived it, Long Covid, insults to the immune system, and lord only knows what else and not the vaccine? Bad science and conspiracy theories won’t explain excess deaths.

Maybe this will help you both.

All I see is a stylized Saturn. Is there a secret handshake?

She didn't break the glass ceiling, but she did break the glass trap door. There have been Prime Ministers for hundreds of years, and she owns the record for shortest term.

Tofu King বলেছেন...

Her Prime Minister term served under more heads of state than the previous 13 PM's. So that is saying something.

I ask the same question.

No photo. No nuffin'.

Or are you supposed to stare at it for a minute, and then see something else?

Big Mike বলেছেন...

Is Liz Truss wearing a name tag? Looks like it. Can you imagine being the country’s political leader and needing to wear a name tag to an important event.

"She didn't break the glass ceiling, but she did break the glass trap door."

That's a good one. I hope "glass trap door" can become a popular phrase. Works for Hillary in a different context.
