Apparently tired of contemporary culture's phallocentric worldview, Finnish artist Mimosa Pale has started riding a gigantic, quite anatomically detailed vagina bike around downtown Helsinki. And what's more, passengers can crawl inside and be taxied around. Uncensored picture probably NSFW.
i don't think that this will make anyone think twice about sexism. that giant vagina is gonna scare the shit out of countless innocent children.
Oh man, melissa, if I had a dollar for every time that thought occurred to me...
How many "innocent" children are there anymore? This sort of art has zippo shock value in 2008.
A woman needs a man like a [vagina] needs a bicycle. Is that the expression? I'm lost.
I'm a child and that scared the shit out of me. I think it still has some shock value, although I think that it is more shocking that they let her ride this around.
in public.
"oooh those europeans are so shocking to my puritan sensibilities! what shall I do now my tiny world has been shattered by this audacious artwork." You know who was a great artist? Norman Rockefeller. Eat that eurotrash.
This looks like something from a Tim Burton movie. Or an old man yawning maybe. If I were her, I'd advertise it as The Cooter Scooter. "Hop on up and take a ride in my vagina!" Now that's how you really spark some interest.
