  4. I have noted that artists are obsessed with nude paintings, because it gives some sort of recognition to their work. I think that the University of Auckland is right to downsize staff numbers & cut certain courses (papers) from being taught at the Elam School of Arts.

    If you are a bloke then you SHOULD be obsessed by nude females. What are you into?

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
