The Very Muscled Boy Scout Memorial in Washington, D.C.

The sculptor had an eye for male beauty. Or maybe this statue depicts the idealized masculine virtues of which Josh Hawley speaks.

The '60s were so fucking weird.

Did Jerry Maren pose for the scout?

The scout is wearing too much clothing.

I remember when I was about eight years old and our Cub Scout pack did an overnight in a park. One morning, I looked out of my tent and saw our Scout leader taking a shower at the outside shower used for rinsing off from the pool. Since there were no girls around, he was totally naked with his big dick swinging for all to see. I was gob-smacked and my mouth fell open. I'm sure purses fell out. He was magnificent! He looked like a gorgeous Tom Selleck parading in front of us little boys. I carry that image to this day as my first memory of hot male lust.

What a crass piece of work.

The man and woman are redolent of the Nazi aesthetic of harsh, ugly, overbearing Roman-influenced statuary.

The scout looks like a small man rather than a boy (which, to be fair, might have been intentional if the reference is also to ancient Greek work).

What the fuck is that supposed to represent? And, the muscles extend to the woman...along with her giant nips and flimsy, clinging outfit.

The sculptor was Donald de Lue, who also created "Spirit of American Youth Rising from the Waves" at a military cemetery in Normandy, France.

Are you a foreigner, r13, or just a dumbass?

Is he side eyeing the stoutfrau?

At least the one in R11 looks artistic. That boy scout one is insane like he made the sculpture of the boy scout and then just added on two other unrelated statues he happened to have just laying around.

R14, are you unaware of the pedo boy scout leader thing? Maybe you're the foreign or dumbassed one if you don't understand that.

by Anonymousreply 16August 13, 2022 2:22 PM

R11 has at least a certain Art Deco suavity.

Will that statue survive when President De Santis brings "Don't Say Gay" to D.C. and the nation?

Mary R9, you're missing the deliciousness of this sculpture, not to mention the unintended humor of it.

I guess you haven’t heard about the HUGE Boy Scouts sexual abuse scandal

They should've out ME behind the cub scout leader! He wouldn't think TWICE about diddling anybody!

Doesn't anybody have any personal scout stories to tell?

Why “memorial?”

The woman is holding a very scary looking butt plug.

This sculpture trio should be the mascots of DLs favorite subjects—hot muscled men, overbearing fraus,and twinks.

It would be interesting to know what the reaction to this sculpture was back when it was unveiled. Hard to believe that it was anything but “wtaf were they thinking?!?”

by Anonymousreply 30August 13, 2022 4:33 PM

Naked man is uncut.

by Anonymousreply 31August 16, 2022 4:05 PM

The kitschy sculptor appears to have been the 3D version of George Quaintance. Oddly, he was married to a woman, whose doubtless well-muscled physique served as model for his female figures.
