Said the headteacher, defending his students, who were asked to make a sea-themed statue for their town. The teacher is quoted in "'Too provocative' mermaid statue causes stir in southern Italy/Art school headteacher hails ‘tribute to the great majority of women who are curvy’ amid social media uproar" (The Guardian).
Go to the link to see the statue, which has huge globular breasts and a giant ass. I'd never even thought of a mermaid's ass before, and now I'm trying to think of how the human ass converges with the fish tail in the mermaid anatomy.Is the teacher trying to say that because one alternative — "extremely skinny" — is bad, anything else must be good? That's a logical fallacy.
Anyway, what is a mermaid but a sexual fantasy? They asked students for a mermaid, and they got exactly what they asked for.

Haha, it's wonderful! She doesn't have silicone breasts. Her arm is acting like a bustier.
As for "the arse"... for a fictional piece I have contemplated mermaid fishy tails and reproduction rules more than is healthy. Let's just say the topic is biologically complicated.
I’ve never seen a butt on a mermaid before. Normally, the fish becomes human higher up so they don’t have to wear pants.
From the front, I don’t see the problem. She looks fine. From the back, she looks like a standard nude. No indication of being a mermaid. That would be my complaint—they only half followed the directions.
The whole point of a mermaid's (fictional) tail is that it allows her to swim underwater with ease. It's difficult to see how the shape of this one's lower body would allow her to do that -- not to mention the two heavy anchors she has up above.
That's not a mermaid, that's a Las Vegas strip club billboard! And pretty terrible art too.
For the extreme opposite type of mermaid, take a look at this traditional Japanese fish-woman-demon thingy:

An important part of the reproductive physiognomy of a female human has been, in the mermaid, replaced by fish-like anatomy. As a male human I find that reproductively ... disappointing.
It seems to me the human ass is what it is because of legs and walking. On land.
In water, swimming, and without legs, what functional sense does the big rounded ass make? Why would it be cleft when the tail is a single structure.
There is that the Starbucks "mermaid" with 2 tails, but that's actually *not * a mermaid. https://www.quora.com/Why-does-the-Starbucks-mermaid-logo-have-two-tails
Mermaids seem oppressed.
Coming soon on a Bud Light can near you.
Mermaids do not have butts and cannot sit. They are usually pictured lying down.
This is a bad nude by a sculpter that cannot do legs.
Oh. My. God. Ariel look at her fluke. It's so big...
I like big flukes and I cannot lie
No other dolphin can deny
When a mermaid swims by with an itty-bitty waist
And a wide fluke in my face
I must breach
Two heavy anchors? I supposed they were floatation aids.
As Mermaids go, that sculpture is no Daryl Hannah. Who by the way isn't all that curvy. But why would a mermaid be expected to represent non-mermaid women? Why is everyone so intent on defining what a woman is supposed to look like or act like, I don't get it. Anyway, Disney is supposed to be remaking the movie "Splash" but with Channing Tatum in the mermaid(man) role...of course.
Didn't Darryl Hannah resolve this issue?
Well, darn! How did I miss that when we visited Puglia?
Man...if you can't do that in Italy, where can you do it?
The logical fallacy of False Choices or Equivalencies.
While women have curves, boys, men, and trans/neo-femimales with gay appeal do not.
Let’s see how shiny the boobs get over time. https://bethcollier.substack.com/p/who-was-molly-malone-and-why-are

I have wondered about the first statement for YEARS. Why, exactly, is a mermaid a sexual fantasy? It's reassuring to hear a man confirm my befuddlement.
On Futurama, Fry (who's really stupid) fell in love with a mermaid while they were all underwater in submerged Atlanta. When the rest of the crew headed back to the surface, Fry stayed behind to go to bed with her. A few minutes later, after he finally figured out the situation, he came desperately running after them.
As any guy to design a mermaid and that's what you get.
The reaction is always the funny part.
Mermaids don't have buttocks or ass cracks.
See fish.
Finally, a mermaid sculpture for Sir Mix-A-Lot!
I like the mermaid. And I hear she's really into Shokushu poruno, so..

>>>A common definition of "mermaid" reflecting that disappointment is:
"Too much fish to fry, not enough woman to love."
Anatomically why/how would she have a human butt, with full butt cleavage, and then a single fish-fin below that? Stupid.
If you think Molly Malone's boobs are shiny, you should see Phil Lynott's bulge... There is a life size bronze of him on the street by the Bruxelles bar.
With all that fat, she retains too much buoyancy to be able to dive deep.
I always thought of a mermaid has the perfect celibate’s sexual fantasy.
