发帖数: 7349 | 1 Ours is the Age of the Bum. Where the 18th century’s Age of Reason was
obsessed with the mind, today things are a little fleshier, a little
wobblier.
So swollen in cultural consciousness has the rump become, it and it alone is
believed to be powerful enough to break the internet. We flatter it with
songs as if it were a grumbling God we’re desperate to please. Lots of
songs: from My Humps to Anaconda, from Baby Got Back to Bootylicious and its
tushy taunt “I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly”.
So committed are we to glorifying the bottom, we increasingly undertake
surgical procedures to inflate it beyond its natural size (so frequently in
fact that 2015 was christened ‘The Year of the Rear’ by the American
Society of Plastic Surgeons). And now, we nominate exalted representations
of buttocks for major art awards. |
