It’s Coming to Something …

It’s coming to something that in this PC, multicultural world that even a work of art, La maja desnuda, painted by Francisco Goya, circa 1797-1800, (oil on canvas), which is displayed in the Museo del Prado (Museo Nacional del Prado) in Madrid, violates Photobucket’s ‘terms of use’.

It seems to me that everyone is becoming a tad too sensitive. It is a healthy part of Western civilization that we all learn to appreciate wonderful works of art. That includes nudity! Is this a narrow-minded American thing, I wonder? Don’t Americans appreciate art? Or is this a broader, more sinister development?
