Are you talking about. 15 00:01:03,444 --> 00:01:06,164 Speaker 2: Wow, that is a substantial mermaid. 16 00:01:06,283 --> 00:01:09,724 Speaker 1: This is a substantial mermaid coming out of the water 17 00:01:09,844 --> 00:01:13,364 Speaker 1: with an enormous set of honkers. Well yeah, big pert 18 00:01:14,124 --> 00:01:18,404 Speaker 1: erec nipple honkers. She looks like a porn star. Ugly 19 00:01:18,444 --> 00:01:21,284 Speaker 1: and pornographic is what this statue has been labeled as. 20 00:01:21,284 --> 00:01:23,004 Speaker 1: I said, it's been there since two thousand and six, 21 00:01:23,044 --> 00:01:26,164 Speaker 1: and I think finally people are feeling brave enough to say, 22 00:01:26,164 --> 00:01:28,804 Speaker 1: you know what, that doesn't represent us anymore. 23 00:01:29,124 --> 00:01:32,244 Speaker 2: You know what, It's cold in the water. Firstly, hence 24 00:01:32,244 --> 00:01:35,644 Speaker 2: the erect nipples. Secondly, she's got both hands as she's 25 00:01:35,644 --> 00:01:38,604 Speaker 2: coming out on the plymth, so that's going to thrust. 26 00:01:38,604 --> 00:01:39,443 Speaker 1: Are you on the slyinth? 27 00:01:39,964 --> 00:01:42,764 Speaker 2: I went to art school, so when you do sculptures 28 00:01:42,764 --> 00:01:45,084 Speaker 2: and things like that, these are the things you take 29 00:01:45,124 --> 00:01:49,884 Speaker 2: into into account. You know, Michaelangelo's David. It's actually got 30 00:01:50,364 --> 00:01:53,404 Speaker 2: the one of the tendons in his arm. Michaelangelo managed 31 00:01:53,404 --> 00:01:56,204 Speaker 2: to capture the tendron in his arm because David is 32 00:01:56,284 --> 00:01:59,804 Speaker 2: moving his hand. That's what it's all about. This sculptor, 33 00:02:00,044 --> 00:02:00,564 Speaker 2: David had. 34 00:02:00,484 --> 00:02:03,484 Speaker 1: The world's biggest schlong. Do you think there'd be some 35 00:02:03,524 --> 00:02:05,484 Speaker 1: sort of uncomfortable discussion around. 36 00:02:05,444 --> 00:02:07,884 Speaker 2: I think it was proportionately the right side. 37 00:02:07,924 --> 00:02:12,244 Speaker 1: That's what say, because it makes them comfortable what they've said. 38 00:02:13,924 --> 00:02:15,364 Speaker 1: That's what they've said. Well, you couldn't get a fig 39 00:02:15,444 --> 00:02:18,284 Speaker 1: leave big enough to cover these honkers. And what I'm 40 00:02:18,284 --> 00:02:20,244 Speaker 1: just saying, what the problem is. I'm not saying I 41 00:02:20,324 --> 00:02:22,364 Speaker 1: have a problem with it. I'm saying this is why 42 00:02:22,363 --> 00:02:25,284 Speaker 1: it is being removed because people are saying it's just 43 00:02:25,363 --> 00:02:28,123 Speaker 1: two pornographic. We already have the little mermaid. We don't 44 00:02:28,124 --> 00:02:35,284 Speaker 1: need the big porno mermaid and the guy, the artist, 45 00:02:35,724 --> 00:02:39,524 Speaker 1: the sculptor has who the designer said, he can't understand 46 00:02:39,564 --> 00:02:41,564 Speaker 1: what the fuss is about. This is a quote. The 47 00:02:41,603 --> 00:02:45,324 Speaker 1: mermaid has completely normal proportions in relation to her size. 48 00:02:45,564 --> 00:02:47,564 Speaker 1: Of course, the breasts are big on a big woman, 49 00:02:47,644 --> 00:02:50,484 Speaker 1: he said. He said that it's pure nonsense that people 50 00:02:50,483 --> 00:02:56,084 Speaker 1: aren't happy with this, and it's also a journalist said, 51 00:02:56,124 --> 00:02:58,044 Speaker 1: on the other hand, she has got huge breasts and 52 00:02:58,084 --> 00:03:00,043 Speaker 1: that could be where the problem lies. Do you think 53 00:03:00,324 --> 00:03:02,643 Speaker 1: this also there's a similar problem in Italy. Two years ago, 54 00:03:02,684 --> 00:03:05,724 Speaker 1: a statue of a mermaid they're not even known. Italy 55 00:03:05,803 --> 00:03:08,724 Speaker 1: is not known for its mermaids with large breasts and 56 00:03:08,764 --> 00:03:12,684 Speaker 1: a generous bottom, was unveiled in Pulia. Critics said it's 57 00:03:12,764 --> 00:03:15,924 Speaker 1: large buttocks and soccer ball shaped breasts were vulgar and 58 00:03:16,084 --> 00:03:20,444 Speaker 1: overly sexual. Some local writer said the statue had two 59 00:03:20,524 --> 00:03:23,724 Speaker 1: silicon boobs that would make a plastic surgeon blush. It 60 00:03:23,764 --> 00:03:26,244 Speaker 1: has a huge ass that you'd never see on a 61 00:03:26,284 --> 00:03:32,483 Speaker 1: mermaidd's seen a mermaid well, even sailors who've been at 62 00:03:32,524 --> 00:03:34,964 Speaker 1: sea for manys they thought juwgongs were mermaids. That's how 63 00:03:35,004 --> 00:03:38,284 Speaker 1: desperate they are. Even they don't picture them with enormous bumps. 64 00:03:38,324 --> 00:03:38,644 Speaker 2: They do. 65 00:03:38,803 --> 00:03:41,604 Speaker 1: The Kardashian bumb does not exist in the merv in the. 66 00:03:41,524 --> 00:03:44,004 Speaker 2: First world, that's what would serve them while they're at 67 00:03:44,004 --> 00:03:46,724 Speaker 2: to sea. Now you're taking that away from the pool sailors. 68 00:03:46,724 --> 00:03:48,444 Speaker 1: Well, this is being removed, this statue. 69 00:03:48,444 --> 00:03:49,484 Speaker 2: Where's it going into your 70 00:03:49,564 --> 00:03:52,244 Speaker 1: Shd I'm sure maybe you can put your shark's jersey 71 00:03:52,244 --> 00:03:54,204 Speaker 1: on it on No need
