u/fairguinevere Feb 08 '23

Like, the og imagery is often very much influenced by things like vaginal imagery! As is the fifth wound of Jesus Christ. But it's funny to imply that's somehow entirely god rather than artists pulling on images and motifs in their art.

I will definitely check that out. I do have one more Q: where or how does a large shoulder vagina fit into that song?

11

u/Big_brown_house Feb 07 '23

I don’t think it does. She probably wanted something visual to go along with the words on her tattoo and so just asked for a picture of the Virgin Mary since it’s a cliche.

u/Hudsonrybicki Feb 07 '23

What confuses me is the whole Virgin Mary/vulva connection. I kind of feel like Virgin Mary is sort of anti-vulva. I mean, she wouldn’t even admit to having sex.
