You do realize that only a little further this way lies "Chekhov's Loaded Penis," right?KiramidHead wrote:they're just symbolic. He stabs Maria multiple times with long spear, which could be symbolic of sexual penetration.

I don't think one needs to be a pervert to notice something sexual about two burly masked men in aprons, suspending a stripper upside-down in a harness and stabbing her from behind with a giant javelin.

I always considered that PH, constantly murdering Maria, represented James murdering Mary. But never really a symbol of sexual frustration.
And however, why is this issue discussed in this topic?

It does bear reminding, especially in this community , that symbolism can be taken too far. Before long, guns are penises, swords are penises, knives and spears and cars are penises. Eventually, every object -- including you! -- can be a penis, and everything that isn't an object is a vagina. Before long, the act of walking through a door symbolizes sexual penetration.
Think of how many doorways James has walked through. What do you think it means?

I don't get why this issue is still so big. It's obvious she was sexually abused. She states it right in front of James. It's not that hard to figure out.

It's not so big. That's why you had to go back two months to find a thread which effectively died off a year ago.
And, given that there isn't any real room left for debate on the subject, it's time to let it die its natural death, I think.
