LOL--love this one: At
the National Art Gallery in Dublin, a husband and
wife were staring at
a portrait that had them
completely confused.
The painting depicted 3
black men totally naked, sitting on a bench.
Two
of the figures had black penises, but the
one in the middle had a pink penis.


The
curator of the gallery realized that they were
having trouble interpreting
the painting and
offered his personal assessment. He went on for
over half
an hour explaining how it depicted
the sexual emasculation of African Americans
in
a predominately white, patriarchal society. 'In
fact', he pointed out,
'some serious critics
believe that the pink penis also reflects the
cultural
and sociological oppression
experienced by gay men in contemporary
society?.

After the curator left, an
Irishman approached the couple and said,
'Would
you like to know what the painting is
really about?
'Now why would you claim to be
more of an expert than the curator of
the
gallery, asked the couple?
'Because I am
the artist, who painted the picture,' he replied.
'In fact,
there are no African Americans
depicted at all. They're just three Irish
coal
miners. The guy in the middle went home for
lunch.
