Nymphs, Grid Girls and #metoo
Manage episode 197726496 series 1914206
In this episode, Nick and Carey talk about a couple of related items: the decision by the Manchester Art Gallery to remove the painting 'Hylas and the Nymphs' by John William Waterhouse, in order to 'provoke debate', and Formula One's announcement that they will no longer use 'grid girls' (they're to be replaced with 'grid kids' We talk about objectification, changing attitudes and the implications for porn if all titillating female roles are now going to be taken by children. We also take in the fallout (so far) of the #metoo movement - is it proportional, and is it too early to say if real change has happened?
