- | Over the past few days I've been mulling over [[Siri Hustvedt]] title essay ''[[A Plea for Eros]]'' which is a rumination on the [[effability|effability and ineffability]] of [[sex]] in connection with the [[Antioch Ruling]]. Since [[January 1]], [[2006]], the [[Antioch College]] in Ohio, United States requires students to gain [[consent]] at each stage of a [[sexual encounter]]. | + | [[Image:Matsys Ugly Duchess.jpg|thumb|right|200px|''[[The Ugly Duchess]]'' by [[Matsys]], see [[ugly women]]]] |

- | Which brings me to [[Cronenberg]] penultimate film ''[[A History of Violence (film)|A History of Violence]]'', the ''[[Straw Dogs]]'' of the 2000s. It is the story of Tom Stall, his wife Edie and their two children. Tom is a good-hearted [[impostor]] with [[organized crime]] roots. After his family finds out his true identity they initially reject him. He is finally accepted in a superb silent scene which is a celebration of the [[nuclear family]]; but not until after an emotionally charged fight between Tom and Edie followed by [[rough sex]] on the stairs. Notice the absence of adherence to the [[Antioch Ruling]]. | + | ;Literature |

- | However, as Hustvedt points out at the beginning ofher essay, an Antioch world can be full of erotic possibilities. Imagine asking a female love interest "May I touch your left breast?"; patiently and eagerly waiting for the answer. Dutch director Warmerdam's cult film ''[[Little Tony]]'' predates Hustdvedt's sentiments by 8 years. In this [[tragicomedy]] the erotic possibilities of explicitness in sexual encounters is illustrated by a key scene in which Brand, the protagonist illiterate farmer asks Lena, the school teacher who has been hired by Brand's wife, "May I see your left breast?". After a putative "Why?" by Lena, Brand answers: "So I can remain curious about the right one."<p align="center"> [http://www.artandpopularculture.com/Template:Featured_article?title=Template:Featured_article&action=edit edit] | + | ;Visual arts |
