DH's 50th

[BlackbirdFirst]

He wants to ask for this from his mother. AIBU to not like it? It would have to go in the bedroom. I'm not a prude, but her bush looks weird ....... [https://www.bonhams.com/auctions/25379/lot/165/?category=list]

It does look weird, you’re right.

[CulturallyAppropriatedName]

Cripes. It's a nice painting, I have no problem with pubic hair, but 3 to 5k? Lucky bloke.

[JM10]

He wants to ask his mother to buy him a painting if a woman touching herself? I am a bit of a prude so there's no way I'd do that 😳

I see what you mean. Not sure if it's supposed to be hair or a shadow, but it does look a bit weird.

[NearlyGranny]

That's beautiful! And it will appreciate, too. I would hang that, no problem.

Of course, his DM may well be outbid...

[Backtoschoolnotsoonenough]

Your dh wants his dm to buy him a picture of a woman masturbating?
Is nobody else a bit disturbed by this?

[Aquamarine1029]

I could live without seeing that monster bush for the rest of my life, but if that's what he really wants, I'd put up with it. It's his 50th after all.

[ThroughThickAndThin01]

She looks like she’s Just sleeping to me.

[DamnShesaSexyChick]

I like it.

[BlackbirdFirst]

I dont mind pubic hair.

He is now cross I put on this thread its from his mother and should have put from a 'family member'

[BlackbirdFirst]

I think her hand is draped, but it's rather close to wank territory

[WorraLiberty]

Why on earth would you want a painting of a woman knocking one out, on your bedroom wall?

[icelollycraving]

No M&S gift vouchers in your house then
Art is extremely personal. I don’t particularly like the painting. The subject is a slightly unusual gift from a mother to a son.
Art will appreciate so if her having pubic hair troubles you, I guess he could sell it in the future.

[BaconsLaw]

This thread is weird.

[Toilenstripes]

I love it! It’s art, and these days art seems under appreciated.

[candle18]

I could think of better things to spend 3-5k on!

[WorraLiberty]

@Toilenstripes

I love it! It’s art, and these days art seems under appreciated.

I don't think good art is underappreciated really.

[Aquamarine1029]

I'm laughing now because even though my dad and I are very close and not prudish, I still don't think I'd ask him to buy me a painting of a bloke with his cock and bollocks on show.

[WorraLiberty]

Perhaps we're all wrong and she's giving birth to a guinea pig?

[honeybeetheoneandonly]

What do you mean "it's from his mother"?
Just buying it for him? (Weird)
She is actually the model in it? (Weirder)
She is the one who painted/would be painting it? (Surely, there are better motifs)

[Craftycorvid]

Worraliberty 😂.

That bush has a life of its own. I wouldn’t trust it not to hop out of the frame and scurry round the house of a night.

[OhCaptain]

He specifically wants it from his mother???

Freud would have a field day with that one!

[LaurieFairyCake]

That's an amazing painting

And the woman has thick, luxurious dark hair on her head - surely we'd expect that sans bush too, no?

That's what mine looked like as a much younger woman when bushes were in

[BluebellCockleshell123]

I absolutely love it. But a painting of woman with her hand in her bush as a present from a mother to her son? Slightly strange.

I can’t imagine my MIL thinking this was appropriate. And I’m sure as shit that my sons would be horrified if I suggested buying it for them.

Surely there are other paintings?

[MrsSpookyM]

"Mum, can I please have this painting of a lady with a prominent bush fingering herself please?".
