Women's rights campaigners pressure lip-shaped urinals to be removed from Rolling Stones museum
31/Jan/2012 - 16:44 POSTED BY PATRICK
Women in the German town of Luchow have expressed their dissatisfaction at the urinals in a Rolling Stones museum's men's toilets, which are indicative of the Stones's tongue logo, but are more feminine and lack the iconic sticking-out tongue.
Roda Armbruster, a local activist, said, "That's discrimination against women. Why does it have to be a woman's mouth? If it had been based on the emblem of the Stones with the tongue, it would have been OK. But the tongue's been left out and they really looks like women's mouths." An official in charge of women's issues in the town said that "An uproar has gone through the population" and that "around a dozen" women had complained. ![]() What are your views? Are the urinals poking fun at the obvious pun, or are they works of art that fit perfectly into the Stones theme?
