Father with Daughter

This painting was sold to a fashion designer and his tiny wife.  The two of them looked like miniature elves and they hung this canvas in the middle of their living room.

I naively believed that sex between 2 women would be love among 2 equals.   I was wrong.  It was still the top/bottom dynamic.
