Fucked Up Statistic of the Day that Pisses Me THE FUCK OFF

From Harper's Index: The number of public statues of individuals in the U.S.: 5,193. The number of those statues that depict women: 394.

Fuck that shit.

Not many people in this country can think of more than a few of statues they've ever seen even in pictures. One of them is Liberty. Another is Venus d'Milo. Another is Justice.

Maybe the statistics don't convey anything meaningful in this instance.

Sofarfromheaven,
You may be right, brother. Thanks for that observation.

Ms. Moon,
I read this in a column from our buddy Jane Fishman. I wish they'd build a statue of her.
