Pussy

Translated to dutch, pussy means kut. We had a long discussion on the appropriateness of the word pussy translated in dutch (kut). There was a fear from the museum that the word "kut" was too vulgar or rude to use as a translation for "pussy". Through our debate we managed to touch on the essence of this love letter, which was a love letter about "pussy". We were trying to convey the idea of pussy being a beautiful thing, a strong thing. Not a word of abuse or shame. Therefore it must be approached the same in dutch. Kut cannot only always be used for insult. It can start to adopt another connotation of beauty and strength if we use it in that way. We were happy to have this conversation with the museum because it sparked an internal debate on the use of the word. Colleagues were consulted, and the consensus was that the word could indeed be reappropriated. The transformation of the word kut had begun.
