GeorgeW1000 118 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 So, I'm an artist. I liked Holyax, but he seemed to disappeared when hate speech was banned here. But artists have a universal problem. How much nudity is allowed in the public eye? When you're drawing in public, what shouldn't you draw as you draw around other people? I joined a college discord, and in it, I posted my art. Many of my drawings are nude... but they aren't sexual. It's called artistic nudity. There are statues in the public eye with artistic nudity. But they got mad at me for posting art in the "creative art" channel, because the pictures were nude, and they asked me to stop and post it in the NSFW channel. Many people didn't grow up in the wild west days of the internet, but "NSFW" was just a joke. It was just another term for porn, because you're not supposed to look at porn at work, and it was popularized. Now it seems to mean a real thing to normies, and they even have some rationality behind it - "If you're not comfortable to show it to your boss, then it doesn't belong here." Which begs the question... no one in the discord I was in were "at work," and it's not like college aged kids never seen a titty before, so what was the problem? Ironically, the nude art they were complaining about on the discord was drawn in public, or a public coffee shop. It's okay to have rules... I follow pretend rules, because I'm used to deviant art. Deviant art doesn't allow art that is explicitly sexual... I don't post anything like that. The more defined rules are no protruding boners, no gaping holes, no sexual contact between your fictional characters, stuff like that. And those are the rules I follow. No one has ever approached me for drawing nude characters in public... it's never ever been a problem, just when I was posting my art on a college discord. How weird is that. What does SW think?

Times change and other standards become the new normal, it might just stay this way and not return to how we lived through it we're getting older Georgie Quote Link to post Share on other sites
