Talk:The Great Masturbator

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

'thinly clad male crotch' changed to 'male crotch in bike shorts' or something therabouts. I just finished reading a few Dali books and have heard his own words on this piece.

Um, those were 1929 bike shorts? If you have a quote from Dali identifying the garment, please provide it, that would be great. Also, please sign your talk page comments, thanks. -- Infrogmation 20:43, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

If it were up to me, I'd keep the "thinly clad male crotch" which I wrote up originally: it's more generalized and in the next paragraph I go on to call them tight shorts. If anything, the second reference is the one that needs revision or clarification.

[edit] Complete physical description

What's the point of this section (given that there is an image of the photo in the article)? It seems not a little anally retentive. Ben Finn 22:48, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

The more complete, the more interpretive. A-giau 13:38, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, think of the blind people ;) 80.42.151.31 23:34, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Hahah... yeah, those blind folks would definitely benefit from that mass of text. I agree with the original post in that this section, if not removed entirely, should be downsized. In the meantime I took the liberty of replacing "grasshopper" with "locust" for this portion (given that it was correctly identified as one in the second paragraph). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.1.143.100 (talk) 00:28, 22 September 2007 (UTC)
