Look at the shadows. Hard shadows where there was little shadow before, and a side angle (see the backwall light). The photographer evidently knew a thing or two about physique photography.anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17951695323985335556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-814549419838495324.post-46774582089641774972018-04-18T07:46:03.751-04:002018-04-18T07:46:03.751-04:00Kind of interedtimg, since bare male torsos were o...Kind of interedtimg, since bare male torsos were obviously always Code-acceptable, even bare for the whole film, hence Tarzan and Hercules movies could be made, but still slightly indecent IRL.<br /><br />This actually surprised me. (Huge "dear white people" rant alert!) Elite institutions as a whole were some of the last bastions of segregation outside of the South. (And the West, if you're an Indian. The only state to my knowledge where an American Legion hall has been used for a lynching would be South Dakota. In 1972.) They weren't on federal funding, so they couldn't be penalized that way; and when it risked their accreditation, they would admit a few tokens and that was it. I would've expected the first black students in the late 60s or 70s. What's interesting is how quickly these institutions forgot their past, pretending instead that policies instituted by law, homeowners' associations, banks, academic institutions, and various places rich people congregate, were all exclusively the domain of "white trash".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
