Part of my job was to catalog the objects in the museum database. This includes details like provenance, measurements, and a visual description of what the object looked like. >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Like I said, the museum was a pretty snotty institution. It’s got a LOT of objects it’s way famous for possessing, but nobody knew about the absolutely massive collection of Moche erotic pottery it had because the curators were totally embarrassed by this stuff. >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Some examples: >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Pretty hot shit, right? They never, ever put any of this stuff on public view or published it in any catalogues but - we legit had like several hundred pieces of Moche ceramics in the “dirty pots” category. Anyway, I was left alone to just do my job with regard to the database for several years, ok? And I figured, well, these’re accessioned objects in the museum’s collection - better get down to bidness. >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> I catalogued every goddamn bestiality, necrophiliac, cocksucking, buttfucking, detached penis, and giant vulva drinking cup in that collection. I’d be like, >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> _A drinking vessel in form of a standing man wearing a tunic and cap. He holds an oversized erection in his hands and stares into the distance_(note I did not say “like he’s hella-constipated”)_. The vessel has a hole at both the tip of the penis as well as around the rim of the figure’s head, thus forcing the drinker to drink only from the penis or risk spilling wine all over themselves from the top of the vessel. Red and orange slip covers the surface of the piece._ > >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Pretty straightforward, right? Apparently the deep seated fear of these objects that the curators exhibited was meant to spread to me as well, but - no one ever gave me that memo, because I guess Midwesterners reproduce asexually. When the curators understood that I had catalogued all of these objects in addition to the other, non-sexy pieces in the collection, they were apparently livid, but knew they had no legs to stand on in terms of getting pissed at me for it. >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> I visited the museum’s online public access database a few years back and - every single description I wrote of these pieces has been totally neutered to say something like _Male figural vase_. >>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> Long story short? Just call a dildo a fucking dildo. It’s all gonna be ok, I swear. >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> This is absolutely the MOST unusual reblog I have ever tagged with what is probably my second-favorite tag, “talk to me about your work.” >>>>>>>> >>>>>>>> Plus it’s hilarious. >>>>>>> >>>>>>> I love ancient art history !!!!! >>>>>> >>>>>> @lowercasetrashwriter >>>>> >>>>> Museums should have sections dedicated to artifacts like these with a warning that says “There’s a lot of private parts in here but we’re dedicated to displaying history so we won’t censor these. Enter at your own risk” or something. It’s prudish to deliberately hide history because of some ding dongs. >>>> >>>> Fucking Puritanism. >>>> >>>> Unpopular opinion: Sex exists. Making body parts taboo is both psychologically bad for us and kinda stupid. >>> >>> Sex is a big part of human culture, like death. Like death, if you erase a culture’s views and interpretations of sex, you weaken your ability to understand the culture. >>> >>> Also like death, individuals may not want to perceive sexual art. (either temporarily or indefinitely). The idea upthread of making it easy for viewers to choose to opt out of seeing that part of the collection is a good one. But there’s a big difference between “we know this can be a fraught subject for people, so we’re giving you information and letting you make your own choice” and “sex icky; nobody gets to know this art exists because it has cooties”. >> >> Fantasztikus sztori, fantasztikus munkahely > > Olvassátok el Meanwhile Schools | Inspire Learning Today — Vagina Museum
