[QUOTE]Originally posted by PsyLiam: [QB] As a point, if you're trying to describe American terms to a non-American, don't throw "wife-beater" into a sentence without explaining it. (As a point, in the UK wife-beater is a nickname for Stella Artois, an above average strength European larger. Presumably because it was drunk by people who then went on to beat their wives. What Americans call "wife-beaters", we call "Vests-Like-That-Bruce-Willis-Wore-In-That-Film." [QUOTE]Originally posted by Aban Rune: [qb] ...artistic depictions of people should be racially neutral. But then it would suggest interbreeding, and we can't have that now can we? [/qb][/QUOTE]How the hell would you draw them "racially neutral"? Even in black and white, it would be obvious if the person was black or white, unless they were also drawn in such an abstract style as to remove all other identifications of race (since there are differences between black and white faces apart from skin colour). Unless you just has a mural with Darth Vadar and the Stig holding hands. That would be awesome. [/QB][/QUOTE]
