At the Metropolitan Art Gallery in New York a husband and wife were staring at a portrait that had them completely confused.
The painting depicted three totally naked black men sitting on a bench. Two of the figures had black willies, but the one in the middle had a pink willy. The curator of the gallery realised that they were having trouble interpreting the painting and offered his assessment.
He explained how it depicted the sexual emasculation of African Americans in a predominately white, patriarchal society. "In fact," he pointed out,"some serious critics believe that the pink willy also reflects the cultural and sociological oppression experienced by gay men in contemporary society."
After the curator left, a Yorkshireman approached the couple and said,"Would tha like to know what t'painting 's really about?"
"Now why would you claim to be more of an expert than the curator of the gallery?" asked the couple.
"Cus I'm the fella what painted it," he replied. "In fact, there's no African Americans in it at all. They're just three Yorkshire coal miners.
The lad in t'middle went home for his dinner."
