•  Neutral We have only 2 FPs of this famous monument, but this composition is not good enough. The statues at the bottom are half cut. Regards, Yann (talk) 14:45, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
  • I have cropped slightly from the bottom to correct the composition. Thanks. -- Dey.sandip (talk) 15:02, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

•  Question Is it really about homosexuality? The figure giving hand job to the man looks definitely female to me, despite of the beard. --Kreuzschnabel 13:21, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
  • Well, it is of a man:) In ancient Indian sculpting and especially in Khajuraho, all bearded figures represent men, and more specifically men with status, royalty etc. All figures are artistically curved, so sometimes it becomes difficult to understand which one is a man or which one is a woman. Its a well-known thing to the local people that this particular curving of two people, refer to homosexuality. Thanks. -- Dey.sandip (talk) 13:58, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
