Cultural References
- The name "Venus Lacy" was used as the title of a song by Team Dresch, a queercore (lesbian/feminist punk rock) band based in Portland, Oregon. Her name was likely chosen because of the contrast between its traditional feminine allusions (goddess of beauty + adjective associated with lingerie) and Lacy's physically imposing presence.

Famous quotes containing the word cultural:
“To begin to use cultural forces for the good of our daughters we must first shake ourselves awake from the cultural trance we all live in. This is no small matter, to untangle our true beliefs from what we have been taught to believe about who and what girls and women are.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
