A large statue of a mermaid in Denmark is set to be removed from public view after critics described it as “ugly and pornographic” and a “man’s hot dream of what a woman should look like”.
The 13ft tall Big Mermaid statue was originally unveiled in Copenhagen in 2006, just a few hundred yards from the famous statue of the Little Mermaid. It has caused controversy for years due to its exaggerated figure and large breasts.
