Sex museum opens in Seoul

Dream 05-26-2003

The Asia Eros museum displays more than 300 exhibits, some several hundred years old, from Korea and around the world.

Crowds of curious visitors arrived as the Asia Eros museum opened its doors in a quiet but upscale neighbourhood in the South Korean capital Seoul.

It claims to be the country's first sex museum and features erotic art from paintings, photographs and carvings, dating back through the centuries.

Some of the items are shamanistic sexual symbols. Other erotic images are displayed on everyday items such as plates, mirrors and coins.

Items from Tibet and Japan are also on display.

That is very interesting. First I have ever heard of sexual abstractions being displayed. You know...for the longest time this world seemed to wunna hide the fact that sexual relations existed...weird how it's all changing huh! But you think it's for the better or the worse?
