Huh. I like her response to it even better!

Welcome to single entendre theater!  
“When she saw the sculpture she realized that it was exactly what she wanted.” In all of her wildest fantasies.

That sculpture is just hideous. The exaggerated musculature is grotesque, and then, as if to add further insult to injury… :rolleyes:

Why do they quote the sculptor’s mother and father, but not the sculptor? And why do they not give the sculptor’s age, so we can develop a theory about why he can’t speak for himself?
