Terminology
[edit]In the introduction, making love seems rather coy and loaded. Shouldn't it be having sex or having sexual intercourse? Salopian (talk) 14:09, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

- I came here through WP:DYK, and have changed it (citing WP:EUPHEMISM). matt (talk) 15:17, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
I think that it could be just one guy with a booner. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.223.2.169 (talk) 17:49, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
The Sexes of the Lovers
[edit]The one of the right is the female. Her legs are wrapped around the conjoined figure on the right. Given their positioning, it seems to facilitate male penetration.--108.41.190.141 (talk) 21:59, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
Use of BBC material
[edit]The description here of the statue presents the very same material and details as the BBC program History of the World in 100 Objects. As a result, this article verges on plagiarism
It's not enough merely to cite the program as a source. The narrative itself must make it clear that the material is Neil MacGregor's.
It would also be good to get more material from other sources so this entry isn't simply a précis of MacGregor's lecture.
