    i mean yeah, i guess so, but that’s not what im confused over.

    I just want to know why specifically it was written with a nude woman? It never alluded to anything in particular.

      Is it really that confusing? If it had said there was a pot of gold the implication is clear that the person who reaches it will be rich. You ask “why a nude woman?” and the answer is simply because, just like being rich, desiring a sexual partner is a common desire.

        A pot of gold explaining the rules to you about it ringing a bell would definitely be even more suspicious than a random naked woman.

          It’s a pot of gold. Obviously there’s a leprechaun involved who will be presenting the riddle.

            Makes sense. But that would not make me less suspicious.
