I like her top, they were really ahead of their time.
spandex sports bra is an ultra rare drop from kangaroos, so you know she’s a serious hunter to have found one.
This looks like my bloodborne character.
Why the US-style censorship on historic content?
this is as far as my internet sleuthing is going for now. It has the photographers name as well as the company. I found some of his other works, but I can’t find an unedited version of this piece. Really sickens me when people censor art
I found this one as well: https://piefed.social/comment/10556273
No, she also invented the tube top.
that’s bullshit.
Reminds me of Islamic theocracies that censor sports because sharia law.
This, is equally bad, if not worse.
idk, this is just how I found it.
Ah okay! Well, the question remains, but I guess I am not going to find the answer :) Thanks for clarifying!
Maybe they’re from The Australian Institute of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Studies (AIATSIS) and/or from TROVE, many pictures there are restricted or not digitally available.
This is a staged studio photo that both exotcises and eroticises a woman from a group of people were and are still actively being genocided, but dorks on here are all why can’t i see her tits tho
Or ykno, it’s more like “I can’t believe someone was so pissed off that they showed a nipple in a piece of art that they went and defaced the art entirely”
It’s like me saying that I don’t like your comment bc it hurt my wittle feelings, so I think I’ll just change your comment to “uwu yes daddy” because that makes me feel better. It’s stupid fucking Americans and prudes having to take a piece of art with a message and make it about them, as always. Fucking prudes can’t just let things be. If you’re deathly afraid of a nipple and think it can unravel the very moral fabric of society and that’s a good reason to tell women they deserve less rights than men, I’m willing to spend a decent section of my day taking time out to spite you.
My issue is with censoring nudity, especially considering the topic of this community. There is nothing inherently sexual with our naked bodies, I think censoring only strengthens the idea of that it is.
I agree that we need to respect the original people of Australia (and other places for that matter), and acknowledge the atrocities committed towards them and the ongoing harm that results from it[1].
My belief is that an accompanying message, like they do (and are obliged to?) in Australia, to acknowledge the Aboriginals and Torres Straight Islanders, is more helpful than censoring parts of human beings.
Examples of such a message can be found here: https://aiatsis.gov.au/, and here: https://trove.nla.gov.au/ ↩︎
Metal! 🤘
It is early because my first thought was wondering why her top wasn’t sepia like the rest of the picture.
I was thinking “was the boob tube invented back then and did the idea migrate here or to there”.
It’s not even that early here!
Them Victorian mores
I’m sorry, it says here, mopes.
Is there an uncensored version? For science!
?
we need the uncensored version because the censored one should have never existed!!!
Not because some weirdo online wants to sexualise women older than their grandma.
Fuck western puritans shoving their values on everyone else and erasing history.
She’s ready to fight god.
Hell yeah she BONK
I wonder how heavy that thing is.
Then again, I imagine it can’t possibly be heavier than claymores and zweihanders, and those were allegedly used despite being longer than I am tall…
With zweihanders, it’s all about leverage. People can strike pretty fast with them - but because of the long handle (and sometimes holding the unsharpened part of the blade) giving them more leverage.
Why is the sword so big? There’s got to be a practical purpose for it
Big Bonk, presumably.
If you do no metalworking, scaling is your best tool for making a
blunterbetter blunt weapon. Put some heft behind it!Makes sense. More force at the end.
Cultural sensitivity Deceased persons
In some Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, hearing recordings, seeing images or the names of deceased persons may cause sadness or distress and in some cases, offend against strongly held cultural prohibitions
https://aiatsis.gov.au/cultural-sensitivity
I’m not fully versed in the complexities of this, but there’s a taboo about depicting deceased Mob / Blak Fellas, this can extend to using a different name / not using their name, not depicting them in recordings, photographs, the like
it’s important to be aware that during the more open colonial period, photographs like this were staged, likely coerced in contexts with limited consent. There’s a lot like this where photographers have posed people beating women, and in other ways to justify their preconceived ideads about the natives they were actively involved in displacing
remembering this was at a time colonists did not consider Aboriginals as human, were stealing their bodies, selling their bones to museums, and treating them as animals
I encourage everyone to do some reading about this, and educate yourselves about cultures that have little to no understanding of
