		<description>When the exhibit was shown in Chicago, there were two placards describing the fetuses, identical in every way except that one referred to embryos and one referred to &#039;unborn babies.&#039; Better to piss everyone off than, I don&#039;t know, decide in favor of science in a science museum, right? Though for the record, it might just be a case of incredible curatorial indecisiveness: in front of the exhibit, one sign offered complimentary audio tours, while another offered &quot;complementary&quot; audio tours!</description>

		<description>Nice article! I noticed this stuff as well in Los Angeles...not to mention that only the female cadavers were given nipples, increasing their sexualization in comparison to the male cadavers. So weird.</description>

		<description>THIS.

These bodies are from China, and I&#039;ll bet even the one with &#039;proper records&#039; for each body has unethically acquired bodies. 

These exhibits sicken me. Nothing more than a modern sideshow.</description>

		<description>&#039;Donated by prisoners&#039;. Do you really believe that? I don&#039;t. Not at all. I believe that most of these bodies were acquired in extremely unethical ways. </description>

		<description>Great, another person crying &quot;misandry&quot; just because we&#039;re discussing the lack of female representation. Do tell how this is &quot;misandric?&quot; Oh, right, women are &quot;misandrists&quot; unless they&#039;re silent and never protest.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m shocked that people are being so defensive about this exhibit, and being so boldly sexist. I mean really? How are you not at least a little skeeved by a dead pregnant woman, with no skin, that&#039;s posed like a pinup shot? Why does the sexualization of a dissected corpse not creep you out?

I have a theory. It&#039;s because images of women as sex objects are so pervasive, that its become the norm. Women are sexualized so often that it has become embedded in our brains that women just ARE sexual, and nothing else. I can think of a dozen other ways to pose a body to display a fetus in womb. The fact that they chose that one, is disturbing. Even if there were other women posed doing things like running, or doing yoga, or other physical activities, this is still an extra disgusting example of women being sexually objectified. Almost literally, as she&#039;s now a plasticized corpse, and therefore little better than an inanimate object.</description>

		<description>Oh, well then! It&#039;s ART! Art exists in a vacuum and artists aren&#039;t influenced by society AT ALL. And you are not allowed to have issues with the opinions and beliefs within the images, because they&#039;re an ARTIST&#039;S opinions, and are above reproach. 

Why on earth would that be a solid argument? 

Also, this &#039;stop complaining&#039; mantra is so tired. Silence is interpreted as consent. Tell me, how do you change someone&#039;s mind without talking to them? What ACTIONS can be taken to change a society&#039;s beliefs, besides talking about them at every opportunity? Tell me, please, what YOU are doing to improve equality that is SO effective? Please. I wanna know.</description>
