What next? Will the Fr*nch stop women from sexually assaulting Victor Noir's memorial? Will New York visitors no longer be able to rub the balls on the Charging Bull? The world just ain't what it used to be, I tell ya.

"Dublin City Council do not want anyone to touch any work of art whether indoors or outdoors to avoid damage and costly repairs," a spokesperson said.

However, [The council] said that these options (moving the statue/raising the plinth) would be "costly", adding that placing a railing around the artwork "may increase risk".

So it would be be less costly to just leave it? I swear, this subject is not indecent enough to warrant this amount of attention, resources, nor effort. Please work on something else.

What costly repairs would a bronze that's touched more require?

Skin oils alone will corrode various metals over years. Also, lots of touching will basically erode it, hence the "polished" look on the statue's entire cleavage

I was having a conversation with someone the other day about lost websites, including this one. I only managed to track it down from a comment I made on a forum about a tonne of links I sent to a news site, which included a jokey aside about statue molesting. Blimey that was hard work. Now to find Fat Chicks in Party Hats and Portal of Evil...

He lies on his back and has a polished spot at the surprisingly featureless crotch. It's just statue pants. He's also had the high spots of his face polished.

I'm actually quite ignorant to how that works now. So Ireland is still part of the EU, right? And is it entirely its own country at this point, is there still some vestigial connection?
