And absolutely every human being in the theater, having absorbed the profundity of the Nude's nudity, is now admiring her admirable breasts. Her third scene includes some wardrobe, namely a clear plastic raincoat, which has to be meaningful. Finally, she puts on a fuzzy sweater, but still no pants, which tends to draw the eye downward.

Though there seemed to be a slight aesthetic preference for not wearing a hat and a slight functional preference for keeping one on, no one had a really good argument for giving your baby plastic surgery. A pediatrician told me the sole reason he circumcised his son was so that the kid looked like him. If my son looks at my penis and the biggest difference he notices is foreskin, I have far more serious problems. Plus, if I wanted my son to look like...
