Nice entry dmitri 
I was a little bemused why the 'naughty figureheads' linked to an image of a carved lion's head figurehead 
. It doesn't seem very naughty to me.
I guess I was expecting a partially undressed lady or something

Great entry.
I am interested though, why use the term sexual deviance?
Alex.

Thanks for the comments, folks.
About naughty figureheads - all right, so I have a warped sense of humour. So sue me.
And 'deviance' just means 'not the norm'. 'Normal', to me, isn't the same as good, right, proper, or even sane. After all, somebody told me yesterday that people coming up with new internet scams was just normal. Sigh. Maybe - don't make it fun.
So hurrah for creative deviance, say I. May you never be normal.
