I learned at the weekend, that Gustav Klimt drew really lovely pictures of masturbating women.
I also learned that while the Tate is entirely happy for under 18s to look at all sorts of other nudes without the slightest warning, if they're touching themselves they put a sign up at the door suggesting that the content might not be suitable!

Bloody difficult to find prints of them, though. :-(
