I have few interjections too.

The original post was given the subject entry for a purpose. Often, we post, and no
discussion/response is forth coming (at least the amount of response we hope for). The
subject line was effective and appropriate.

I would ask the original poster to "enough", what are you hiding? A colleague
approaches, 'what's that' they query, wah-lah!, an entry into the subject matter that
the original post was inquiring about. Thus, a relevant response may be the result.

IOW, the "enough" reply is a symptom of the original question, whimsically (or
pathetically) appropriate while it is interestingly ironic too.

I don't know the answer regarding 'nude natives' in exhibits. It doesn't offend me. In
fact, as an 'educated' 'white man', I am offended when I detect the censorship that
would hide the truth. IMHO, Nudity is in no way offensive. Post signs? Well, in our PC
society, I think it is obligatory but pathetic. Perhaps, our subject line entries need
obligatory apologies too!? I dunno.

Likewise, does Natural History embody humanity? I dunno. No, I do know. Yes. In my
museum, and in my opinion, white folk and their cultures are interesting and
exhibited. The semantics seem superficial.

If this is about pornography then we are in a different arena altogether. However it
is not about pornography. The subject line was explainable and interesting and
professionally relevant.

Censor the censors and what do we have? A Museum exhibit?

Let's keep the conversation on focus and not resort to flames.

Tanks for reading, large amorous ones. :-)
