Art Vs. Pornography: Where do we draw the line?

[AbnoNothing]

I'm not sure what the root causes of censuring sexuality ever was, so I don't really have an opinion worth sticking with at this point. I just know that I discovered masturbation when I was 6, and I wanted to fuck adult girls at that time, and still do. I turned out just fine. Atleast that's what I think. lol

@AbnoNothing Not a problem my rock sweller friend, it will happen soon

[AbnoNothing]

@ThePhantomLion What's "rock sweller"?

[ThePhantomLion]

@AbnoNothing Rock Dweller actually, that was a typo, and I'm not even going to delete the comments because I'm not ashamed of that, we all make mistakes like that, but Rock Dweller

[AbnoNothing]

@ThePhantomLion Ok, lol, what's rock dweller?

I consider art to be any medium in which an opinion is presented or a story is told or if it entertains people. If pornography does that, then, to me, it's a form of art. The actual definition of art is the quality, production, expression, or realm, according to aesthetic principles, of what is beautiful, appealing, or of more than ordinary significance. Pornography falls under some of these categories, so, by definition, pornography can be considered an art.

i would have commented something but youtube is a fucking giant piece of shit and i can't be fucked to type all over again.

Yeah I've sometimes thought about this myself. I guess naked art becomes porn when certain things about the art is emphasised purely to sexually arouse someone. So the statue of David is purely art, but a drawing of an anime girl with gigantic tits fingering herself while blowing someone off (*cough coughdeviantartcough cough*) is obviously porn. It's also what the art is describing, so the statue of david is about the male body while a picture of an anthropomorphic wolf jerking off is probably

"...off is probably the artist's way of expressing his sexual fetish to the like minded and, to me, seems what a lot, not all 'artists' on places like DeviantArt and FurAffinity seem to do." - fakesmith797

As far as youtube goes, same thing for Windows Media, technology has its flaws and isn't meant to last long without maintenance. I'll admit I've drawn some fucked up things, but every single drawing had a purpose, most of them with more purpose than others.

people tend to call anything 'art' way too easily

[ThePhantomLion]

@devaloki Hence my purpose for making this video, to address and to get people to openly express this paradox and an opinion thereof
