Mona Lisa 'Was A Man'

As I said more than a few times before here on "Perspective," we do not attempt to be 'politically correct' in any way shape or form!

I'm getting to an age now where I can say, or do, just about anything I want, (As long as it's legit!) and I find that the older I get, the less patience I have with stupidity!

The Gay community, in their efforts to become more mainstream, claim that 10%+ of the population is homosexual, when in actual fact the figure is more like 2%!

Between this and those disgusting, perverted, Gay Pride parades, (Of which Toronto has one of the biggest) and every second or third person on television who is queer in some form or other, we seem to be inundated with queerness of unprecedented levels!

WELL HANG ON TO YOUR HAT KIDS!

An expert has claimed to have unravelled the mystery behind the world-famous Mona Lisa painting - saying the model was a man and Leonardo da Vinci's lover!!!!!!

(Now it doesn't surprise me that Leonardo, being the artistic type, was gay. But! that Mona was actually Manny, is a bit of a shocker!)

Artist da Vinci has proved an endless talking point for conspiracy theorists looking for hidden meanings in his works.

The Mona Lisa's real identity remains shrouded in mystery with a silk merchant's wife, Lisa Gheradini, being seen as the most likely model for the painting.

That was until Silvano Vincetti, chairman of the Italian national committee for cultural heritage, made his startling revelation.

He said the identity of one of the world's most iconic paintings was a young man called Gian Giacomo Caprotti, also known as Salai.

Salai and da Vinci worked together for 25 years and is believed to be the inspiration behind several of the Renaissance artist's works.

Mr Vincetti said the artist and his effeminate apprentice had an "ambiguous" relationship.

The expert drew on several of da Vinci's works, including St John the Baptist and the Angel Incarnate, to highlight the similarities of the nose and mouth to that of the Mona Lisa.

Mr Vincetti said these works show similarities to the Mona Lisa.

Mr Vincetti also backed up his claims with forensic evidence.

He said: "Close examination of a high-quality digital copy of the portrait had revealed an L for Leonardo and an S for Salai."

Imagine that!

(The findings have been refuted by French art historians at the Louvre museum in Paris, where the Mona Lisa is one of the centre's star attractions.)
