(82,333 posts)You don't get it.
What do you think would happen to this statue if it was displayed outside?
seabeyond
(110,159 posts)chest are all as shiney.
just as shiney. so no, your theory fails and yes, i get the game is not nearly as fun as to pretend men? boys? have to walk by and feel a statue up.
i would say this would be 13 yr old giggles. but, i do not even see 13 yr olds behave like this.

(82,333 posts)Do you object to pedestrians touching bronze breasts? Or bronze penises for that matter?

I've seen a few. but I can't remember the names.
seabeyond
(110,159 posts)statues tits. seems to be really bothersome that an artist had the area, along with other areas, more shiney than the rest. and it is not attributed to, i guess, grown men rubbing on an inanimate object.
go figure.

(12,388 posts)I was there last year. Favorite meeting spot for Dubliners. We used it as that ourselves, rounding up our friends on cell phones to meet by fair Molly and then lunch at the pub around the corner from her. Great pub, wish I could remember the name; think it was O'Neill's?

(12,388 posts)We had just come from touring it, so I think it is one of the buildings of Trinity

(12,388 posts)We traveled in a horseshoe pattern from Dublin to Galway and saw many wonderful things, but I really loved Dublin. It is a big small city, if you know what I mean. Easy to get around, chock full of interesting history and sites, yet at the same time, a great sense of fun and humor. I would go back.

(82,333 posts)I remember in high school one of the teachers said Democritus got his idea for the theory of atoms by seeing how worn some parts of the statues in the temples became. He didn't say if was breasts or noses though.
