Now Lets Check Out Some Henry Scott Tuke, A Completely Different Aesthetic To That Of Bliss, And Another

They did the math!!

Henry Scott Tuke - Midsummer Morning (1908)

Henry Scott Tuke - Sun bathers (1927)

Exactly so. The battle ground is bodily autonomy, if there were anything that we should all have agency over then surely it is our own bodies! Remeber; "as long as one man lives in chains the possibility exists that all men can live in chains"

The crux of the anti trans movement is a war on bodily autonomy. They don't want you to have any agency over what you look like, how you dress, who you date, whether to have kids, etc.

They want total control over you. Not just trans people. Not just queer people. You. Everyone.

Trans people are just a scapegoat. They want total control over everyone's self expression. They want the right to mold you into their perfect little cog in their dehumanizing machine.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility. Our rights are your rights. Our destruction is your destruction.

What sort of numbskull thinks that garbage collection is superfluous activity? You couldn't make this nonsense up!

Painter of Youth Discovering the work of Henry Scott Tuke (1858 - 1929)

No.4 The Bathers (1888-89) Colour and light is a quality in Tuke's work. There is a contrast between white flesh and the setting. Deep blue waters, red clouds, and 'boys the colour of ivory,'

In The Bathers, Tuke hides something that the viewer cannot see. A fourth boy's hand is visible at the edge of the frame as it grasps the side of the boat, and the standing boy points to whatever we cannot see.

The painting is now owned by Leeds Art Gallery in West Yorkshire.
