Differnt is dangerous, or not?
Sorry to brake it, but the world is not flat and mankind are not a product of divine powers
Manet challenged the foundations of the academic tradition in France and was due to this victim of controversy and ridicule. This was mainly due to the female characters' undisguised nakedness, which was perceived as extremely offensive to an audience who could appreciate the open eroticism only if it had the correct classical costume.
Duchamp lacked faith in art itself, and he sought to replace aesthetic values in his new world with an aggressive intellectualism opposed to the so-called common-sense world
In 1998, the University of Central England was involved in a controversy when a book by photographer Mapplethorpe was confiscated. A final-year undergraduate student was writing a paper on the work of Robert Mapplethorpe and intended to illustrate the paper with a few photographs from Mapplethorpe, a book of the photographer's work. She took the photographs to the local chemist to be developed and the chemist informed West Midlands Police because of the unusual nature of the images.
The police confiscated the library book from the student and informed the university that the book would have to be destroyed. If the university agreed to the destruction, no further action would be taken. The university Vice-Chancellor, Dr. Peter Knight, supported by the Senate, took the view that the book was a legitimate book for the university library to hold and that the action of the police was a serious infringement of academic freedom.
The Vice-Chancellor was interviewed by the police, under caution, with a view to prosecution under the terms of the Obscene Publications Acts. After the interview with the Vice-Chancellor, a file was sent to the Crown Prosecution Service as the Director of Public Prosecutions has to take the decision as to whether or not to proceed with a trial. After a delay of about six months, the affair came to an end when Dr. Knight was informed by the DPP that no action would be taken

DIFFERENT IS DANGEROUS, society do everything in its power to defeat it, by cultural, political and religious values and regulations. This conformed regulations makes sure that no one passages the fine line of the ordinary, since different tends to shake and make people's world insecure.
When expressions of different could be a slap in the face for a hole society it could half a century later attract thousands of visitors to different fancy museums, making people switch opinion over night saying - what was it that i said. Because its not until different is accepted by a "higher force" its going to be apart of peoples daily life.
We think different, we think different its beautiful, different is creativity and the essence of evolution. When people see obscene, devious, bizarre, perverted, strange things we see a new light, we see change, we see art and the beginning of something great. In fact we cant even understand why people sometimes are offended by the different, what in their minds makes things dirty, twisted and obscene?
So here comes a new year, open your mind enrich your life with something new stop struggling the alternative way and embrace it. Practice, for every situation you encounter and have fixed opinion, think the total opposite, embrace that new perspective for a while, slowly leave your box and realize in the most remote feeling and taughts lays a never encountered undiscovered world of new possibility's, different makes difference...
Every picture above have through history turned peoples life around, and in the future there are more pictures to see the daylight...

BDT Book club #2, "The Man Cave"
After the wedding, most men swallow their egos, phase out their buddies, and choke back tears as they watch their homes collect bizarre items like gravy boats, potpourri, and vacuum cleaners. They sacrifice, stamp out their past, and even throw out the essentials - those must-have items like the Redskins couch with built-in beer holders, the original Atari that no longer works, and the stuffed falcon heads.But there's a better way. A sanctuary where a man can resurrect the glory of his past and cherish his hobbies without ever disrupting his family. The Man Cave."The Man Cave Book" shows even the most domesticated man how to create the refuge of his dreams. Chapters and sidebars include: interviews with award-winning man cave owners; Q&As with key experts; The First Man Cave in America; man caves as therapy; When money is no object - The Gentleman's Cave; a man cave on a budget; tricks for convincing your wife you should build a man cave; the man cubby - when you lack room for an actual cave; the Woman Cave - fact or fiction?
Does a single guy need a man cave? Forbidden activities in man caves (changing diapers, emoting); 10 warning signs you've been in your man cave too long; and, clutter - it can be an art form. So why are you still reading this? Grab your old tool belt, get some dirt on your pleated pants, and start building your very own Man Cave. Your wife will thank you.
