beef with art
In a lot of art, Bathsheba is portrayed as some sort of temptress.
Why?!
Along those lines, women need to stop being blamed for men's downfalls. (Dude, Adam, man up already and admit you chose to eat the apple!) Overall, humans need to start owning up to their own foolish choices instead of blaming others.

True. I've wondered about that myself. About half the time in sermons I've heard on the subject, she is portrayed as a partner in the sin, and half the time, she is said to have been somewhat "raped." Unfortunately the Bible is not clear on the point, but surely she was not a temptress. From the sermon's I've heard, women would bathe at dusk on rooftops to be modest and avoid being seen. He knew very well what he was doing by A) not being in battle and B) being in that place at that time, and C) He totally didn't have to give in to satan's temptation! oy.
