Click pic for obviously NSFW snow goodies
Police told a Rahway, New Jersey family to cover their nude snow woman after an anonymous complaint.
Maria Conneran’s family sculpted Venus de Milo in last week’s snow outside their home on Colonia Boulevard.
Gonzalez says Sgt. Dominick Sforza was apologetic when he went to the house and asked the family to dress the snow woman.
The family added a green bikini top and a blue sarong bottom.
The snow woman melted as the temperatures warmed up this week.

How the hell can they even think of asking to cover this up? It’s art. If it was me and I had the snow I would have done David next.
They definitely look fair and balanced.
Snowlady hot
This is a ridiculous double standard. You have Snowmen showing their Snowballs all the time!!!
I don’t think it even warrants a NSFW tag. Really, are we that prudish?
Lets ask a question..
HOW easy is it to see snowmen/women in a background of MORE SNOW??
Its not easy all the time. NOW you install Colorful clothing on it, and GUESS WHAT.. NOW it can be seen very easily..
I also LOVE the idiots that Think “this will corrupt our children”.
I say to them..
1. If they Start having a problem with this, ISNT it time to explain LIFE to them?
2. I think its the ADULT with the problem seeing something that AROUSES them.. and they cant make a PASS at it.
Next time I’m in France, I’ll demand to put a bikini on all the Venus statues…..
This is about as retarded as when that pope with the penis envy smashed all the ancient statues…
A friend of mine who lives in a leafy suburb put a plastic skull over one of the yard lights on his front lawn for Halloween one year. One of his neighbors knocked on his door the day after Halloween and said “You need to take that skull down now. My wife is a Christian and she doesn’t like it”.
This caused my friend to consider the plastic skull a permanent addition to his home. Over the next year the neighbor called the police and every city and county department he could think of and all of them told him to pound sand.
The neighbor told my friend in front of the cops that he would come over and take it down himself. He eventually did just that. My friend got nice clear video of the guy backing over the light post in the middle of the night with his company truck.
The guy was arrested at work the next morning and eventually forced to pay damages. He was also fired. The damages went towards a nice new light pole which was fitted with the plastic skull as soon as it was installed.
#8 We need more people like your friend who will stand up to this shit!
If the snow-venus had been mine I’d have used spray paint to make it more visible and used hot pink for her naughty bits.
#5: The cop thought so.
Lucky escape – since presumably the snow was less than 18years old they would have been arrested for child porn.
#8/#9 above, I second your sentiments. Some people are prudish, true, but they also seem to be forgetting that freedom OF speech does NOT mean freedom FROM speech (nor of religion, for that matter!). If I want to do up a tribute to the Great Masters on my front lawn (tough to do in snow down here in the Phoenix metro), I have every right to do so. This is no different than installing a plaster statue or fountain of the Venus on my front lawn. It’s ART, and perfectly acceptable. Just because the neighbors can’t control their sexual demons doesn’t give them the right to dictate what I have on my property.
Now, if the statue was modified by adding flesh tones, obvious nipples, or pubic hair, I could understand the neighbors being upset, much as the neighbors were upset in Beverly Hills many years ago when a Saudi ‘prince’ had all the nude statues atop the wall of his compound painted in a ‘lifelike’ manner. Still, the difference between art and smut is many times in the eye of the beholder.
I think neighbors like those of the Conneran’s need to seek counseling over their obvious sexual hangups.
Am I the only one thats noticed, but the snow-womans left breast is sagging a bit lower than the right…..
I wouldn’t know what caused me to notice something like that….
#12 from Wikipedia:
“Most Greek sculptures were painted in strong colors. The paint was frequently limited to parts depicting clothing, hair, and so on, with the skin left in the natural color of the stone, but it could also cover sculptures in their totality. “
I like both versions, but it ain’t Venus de Milo.
Miss de Milo wasn’t nekkid and had a head.
#14: True, I am aware of that as well, however, the Puritan Fathers made sure that we weren’t so enlightened here in the good ole U.S. of A. as they were in Ancient Greece…times and tastes have changed just a smidge in the last couple thousand years…
Also please note that I said I could understand the NEIGHBORS being upset, not that I would necessarily be so.
LOL – only in America!

if the person had come over and requested/suggested that it was ERIE and that he might think of removing it..He probably would have.
“Im Christian (or any religion), REMOVE/DONT DO THAT”, ISNT reason to do anything.
A hot snow woman.
Brilliant concept.
Who honestly gets bothered by this kind of stuff? Or like the puppet cleavage that got banned in Colorado recently. http://tinyurl.com/ybu5oug
I mean with all the abusive, valueless sex on TV, in music, on movies, etc, someone can really get worked-up over a tasteful snow sculpture or puppet cleavage?
I’m getting an icicle just looking at the snow woman.
In a fitting climax to this story, the Chief of Police of Rahway and Sgt. Sforza were invited to the grand re-opening of a wing of the Louvre in Paris this morning, where they were asked to unveil the recently cleaned statue of Venus Di Milo, and then were pelted by the attending crowd and press with tangerines and sarcasm.
Can you say RIDICULOUS?! I had this on my show today http://bit.ly/9Tl8dd
