Some comparisons made elsewhere, however, are less convincing because of their generality; it is curious, for example, to match Rodin's large scale erotically driven "The Kiss" (1882), its two figures entwined rising up from their plinth, with the reclining female figures L and M from the East pediment on the basis that their sensuously clinging drapery and arching headless bodies share an erotic charge.

Here's a look at what the US Code says about the stars and stripes: No disrespect While it's true that one man's disrespect for the flag is another man's protesting police violence against African-Americans, the US Code lays out specific examples of what it considers discourteous, including displaying a flag upside down (except during times of dire distress or danger), letting it touch the ground or water and carrying it flat or horizontally, Also -- bikini wearers and Nike execs, take note -- it shouldn't be used as apparel, bedding or drapery.
