Talk:Tamara de Lempicka

[edit] Sexuality

I'm going to restore 'and was famous for her many liaisons with both men and women' which was shortened to just 'and was famous for her many liaisons' by an anonymous user (Who's IP has been a source of vandalism according to the talk page for it (though it is a shared one it points out)), whilst I don't usually think a persons sexuality is terribly relevant, (do we specifically comment the heterosexuality of every historical figure who is?) it does seem in the case of Tamara De Limpicka to be relevant to mention it, most of the biographical information about her makes mention of it, including that by her daughter, and that linked on the main article, and in the context of the different societal attitudes to sexuality of the day it does illustrate something of how she was perceived in her day, also many people have commented on how her sexuality influenced her work which I think makes it very relevant to at least mention.

I hope that the edit summary was sufficient this time, apologies for not including a note on my first edit, I was restoring information that had been deleted (without explanation) and posted on the discussion page but I forgot to include a reference to that in the edit summary, my bad, I do feel however that removing it in the first place is what required an explanation since it was cited from and discussed extensively in biographical information already linked on the page.Number36 20:46, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
