What's your legacy?

We all die, right?  And yeah, I know that's pretty sucky to think about - but it's true... What do you want to be remembered for?  I know  you've thought about it before.  Do you want to be remebered for  your kind heart, your hard work ethic, you vagina? 

Wait.... WHAT? 

Yes, there is a woman - Milena Marinkovic - in Serbia that wanted to be remembered for her vag!  She had a very very specific dying wish that required her husband to hire a sculptor to create an exact replica of her vagina on her headstone.  The sculptor was to work from a series of photographs that Milena had made herself. 

Why would she do this, you ask?  Well, because she didn't want her husband to chase other woman.  "I don't want you chasing other women.  This way you will always remember me." was written in her will and testament.

But finding a sculptor that would do the commission wasn't easy.  the 72 year old widower said, "The problem wasn't finding the money, but finding an artist who would do it.  Most of them said it was blasphemy.  Now it's finished I lvoe it and it's a really good likeness.  And this way, a part of her will always be with me."
