    I really, really could’a gone without both the art and the comments.

    /// Here Paul Jamin has painted A Rape

    in the Stone Age. She strives to escape

    while two Primitives fight

    over who has the right

    to molest her. (They’re still mostly ape.)

    The matter has come to a head.

    Neither guy’s gonna wait til they’re wed !/

    The lady’s perturbed:/

    These brutes must be curbed.

    Evidently all chivalry’s dead.

    Two males- evidently “in heat”/

    And neither prepared to retreat:/

    The gene has decreed/

    That one must “plant his seed,/

    But they’re treating the lady like meat.

    Synchronized Mountain Climbing was introduced as an Olympic event in 804 bc but disappeared at some point in the 2nd century bc.

    Apparently this is depicting a rape attempt. Is that something I am supposed to think can be turned into a joke? I am not against depicting rape in art/drama when treated for what it is, but for a joke?

    Yes, it’s art, and a notable technical achievement. But its subject matter is reprehensible, and to treat is as a joke is inexcusable, especially in light of the very recent violent death of a 12 year old Texas girl at the hands of two men.

    Good news, folks! In the ensuing battle of the brutes for the body of the maiden, she escaped … leaving her would-be ravishers bruised, bothered, and bewildered.

    (syntax supported by the Google, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, Ecosia, Brave, and Yandex search engines) in the browser address bar (or search for it using one of those search engines) and choose the first Category: found and once there find the text string JAMIN, and click its link for info and links that point to more info (perhaps best viewed by the Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox browsers, which can automatically translate most webpages if necessary) about this large painting. 

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #3345 (June 26, 2024) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu (even larger, if you trim what’s after .jpg from the URL). I have added a comment there pointing to the blog entry with my comment pointing to info about this artist I used to point to here. So far, 2 works by him have been used here, the June 21, 2024, strip being the prior.

    The word “rape” originally meant to take by force and did not necessarily have the sexual context it has today. The definitions that have become secondary and tertiary nowadays had been the primary and secondary ones until the early 20th century:“2: an outrageous violation

    3: an act or instance of robbing or despoiling or carrying away a person by force”

    An example would be The Rape of the Lock – a burlesque narrative poem written by satirist Alexander Pope circa 1712.
