Must be some fetish.
mmmm. Im going to take my shirt off, unzip my pants and stare at this pole "ohhhhhhh"
Also, what exactly is SCARLET in this? and where is the tree?
π: 0 β©: 0
I spy with my little eye: Too much eye shadow, soft porn, a pole for some reason, a sink for some reason, seriously what's with the the pole, and OPEN CURTAINS. Think of the children! Also, that pole is the real star here.

I spy a lurker that thinks they are an authority on art without posting anything of their own. Β I agree, not the best photo from this artist, but this is not a constructive way to criticizeΒ

Dude, it's a naked woman and a pole. I could've just said "This fucking sucks!"

I hope you realize that every comment boosts the popularity of this image, this artist, and this category of art. Β So if you don't want erotic nudes on the homepage, you might want to stop.

Yeah, I was joking about that. But the pole being the best? Totally serious.

Wow, new Lilly pic!
She looks so cute in this one.

this is literally softcore porn

You use that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
π: 0 β©: 2
You make my side hurt from laughing. You say that like as if it's hard for me to understand what softcore porn is.

softcore porn literally women who just show off their bodies sexually like as if it's art, or just having sex, but now showing off the penis or vagina. If you want nude art, or photography, thenΒ upload.wikimedia.org/wikipediaβ¦

So ... what's so inherently sexual about some boobs, then?
I mean, I'll grant you the definition where definite but non-explicit sex is concerned, but there is no such thing in this image, and I call bullshit on the "showing off their bodies" thing.
As to nude art ... luckily, the distinction is highly subjective.
I can understand when people criticize pictures that have been shot with shitty cellphone cams in a bathroom mirror and are obviously only there to attract attention of the sexual kind.
This, however, whether you like the subject matter or not or are somehow offended by a pair of tits (however that happens ... I'll never understand this typically american prudery ... ), is still very much professional photography, and as such very much belongs here. Your personal opinion is of absolutely no consequence in that regard.

you're a moron. this is nothing more than a pic of a chick with her boobs out. there's nothing artistic beyond this being a very very bland(and ugly/fake looking, in my opinion) portrait of a lady with unbuckled pants and no shirt. it's boring, it's stupid, it has no substance other than to arouse guys and if you attempt to deny that, then you're only making yourself look like a pathetic joke, my friend. have fun defending this cancer "art"
π: 0 β©: 1
Bland, ugly, fake? You know, I'd agree with you there. I don't even like the picture.
What I like even less is this insufferable mentality that you and people like you exhibit on DA every day.
This "If I don't like it, it ain't art"-mentality. This "If it shows tits, it's porn"-mentality.
You are not the center of the universe. Your personal taste is not a standard other people have to abide by in any way. Your opinion on someone else's art doesn't invalidate it, nor is it relevant. Neither is it relevant whether or not you consider it art. Someone else very well may, and you're in no position to challenge or deny that.
Sure, by the same token, you're free to consider it "not art", but that's your personal opinion, and only that. Stop acting like it's a statement of fact.

i dont agree that this is porn at all, its nothing more than a chick standing there with no shirt on. the only "art" i can personally get from it is the shitty makeup job. that aside, its a simple photo of a person. no better than your typical bathroom selfie. but hey, some people think thats art too so whatever
now take your pseudo-intellectual ass outta here

"the only "art" i can personally get from it is the shitty makeup job."

lol stop trying to defend this picture
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm not, actually. Hell, I don't even like it.
I'm arguing against the mentality you and people like you display on here every single day, namely that you seem to believe that you define what is and isn't art, and that it is your particular taste that matters in this regard. It isn't. Your taste and your opinion are irrelevant. Deal with it.
π: 0 β©: 1
/has nothing in their gallery, doesn't do anything artistically, bashes on others religions
I feel like you really have no say right now on "artistic taste". You're just another pseudo intellectual, but you know, whatever you say bud
π: 0 β©: 1
Judging someone by their profile is cute, really. I do indeed do stuff artistically, not that you would know.
I merely prefer to keep a separate account for discussions and debates. No harm in that.
What you "feel" is irrelevant as well, since I do not require your blessing or acceptance of my "artistic taste".
Get off your high horse, how about it?
π: 0 β©: 1
I don't see how my profile picture even proves anything. Also why should my artistic taste even bother you in the first place? You're sitting here defending a piece you "don't care about" when you obviously do since you just keep going. I don't even really know what you're trying to prove, you're kind of going all over the place. All I'm saying is that this isn't even artistic and it's sexual, and you're saying I'm wrong, and all the sudden my opinions don't matter???
π: 0 β©: 1
You may want to read my comment again. I never talked about your profile picture, nor about your art taste.
I'm not defending the piece itself. I'm defending its right to exist on this site, since it is art, not porn.
"All I'm saying is that this isn't even artistic and it's sexual, and you're saying I'm wrong, and all the sudden my opinions don't matter???"
Precisely. Your opinion matters to nobody besides yourself. Which is why you shouldn't go about stating your opinion as fact, as you did with your first comment.
Besides. I still don't see what's "sexual" about a pair of boobs. A vagina I get, but boobs? And even in case of a vag, it may still be called art, not porn.
You're not the arbiter of what constitutes art and what doesn't, that's the point here.
π: 0 β©: 1
I admit I have misread your first statement, but also "Your taste and your opinion are irrelevant."-you
And you saying this is art is literally dumb. It has no right to be on this site and same for most of these photos this "photographer" has posted. Most of his work sexualize women. No there is nothing wrong with breasts, but the look, unbuttoned sagging pants, and just the vibe of this picture has sexual implications. If you're trying to defend this as art then you're a moron. I literally just Google porn star, and got alot of pictures that are similar to this piece.
rpcache.rpcache.com/images/porβ¦
they literally look exactly the same, giving off the same sexual implication. Also I did a small survey on this dA picture with 4 people in my family and 16 people at a restaurant I went to today. Literally everyone I have showed the picture to said it was sexual. Described her as a playboy girl.
We are obviously not going to see eye to eye to this, since you're as stubborn as an ox to defend this soft porn, and also a raging pseudo intellectual, so I would not try even replying to me. If you do try I will not even read it, because this debate/argument will continue and it's starting to get annoying that people like this exist. I will block you instantly if you even try replying to me.
π: 0 β©: 1
Oh, you will "block me instantly" if I reply to your spewed hate, yes? I don't know ehther I should find this amusing or cowardly. Probably both.
I'm gonna do it anyway, because I really don't give two fucks about what you want.
"It has no right to be on this site and same for most of these photos this "photographer" has posted. Most of his work sexualize women."
Just who do you think you are to be able to say what kind of pictures have a right or no right to be on DA?
And really, yeah, his work often mildly "sexualizes" women, but so fucking what? This has been an intrinsic part of art since time immemorial. What do you think ancient works of art like the Venus de Milo were intended to showcase, if not the beauty of the female form? And that is inherently tied to sexuality, what's the problem with it? Why are you funny 'muricans so afraid of sexuality?
"and just the vibe of this picture has sexual implications."
Again - so what? Sexual implications don't make something porn.
"If you're trying to defend this as art then you're a moron."
*snort* Wow, your argumentation here is really flawless, isn't it?
"Also I did a small survey on this dA picture with 4 people in my family and 16 people at a restaurant I went to today. Literally everyone I have showed the picture to said it was sexual. Described her as a playboy girl."
... so? More opinions of individual people. Some may like it, some may not. Problem?
"and also a raging pseudo intellectual"
Your petty little ad hominem attacks really amuse me, you know. You don't know me, so I think you're in no position to judge how much of an intellectual I may or may not be.
"I will not even read it, because this debate/argument will continue and it's starting to get annoying that people like this exist."
People like what? Like me? Gee, I think you'll find that out there there will be a lot of people who don't agree with you or call you out on your bullshit. I suggest you learn how to deal with that, it won't change.
I'd also suggest you get rid of that ultra-prudish attitude you're rolling with here, it won't be very helpful in life if you continue walking around with this gigantic stick up your ass.
And for the record: This picture doesn't violate any rules of DeviantArt. This picture is tagged as containing mature content. Therefore, this picture definitely has the right to be here. You may not like it, and that is your right. What is not your right is to deny this picture its right of existance on this site on the grounds that you personally do not like it. It's really simple. If you don't like it, don't look at it. You may not consider it art, that does not mean that it isn't art or that nobody else may consider it art. Again, and I'll put it in bold so it maybe gets through that thick skull of yours: You are not the arbiter of what is and isn't art. Period.
Now. Go ahead and block me if that turns you on. I've said all I needed to say.

im not normally one to say what is and isnt art but this is literally just a picture of a half naked lady holding onto a column
of course people will defend to the grave that this is beautiful and original a+ artwork, when the reality is that they need something to jack off to
π: 0 β©: 4
I don't know... If people are just looking for things to jack off to, then there are quite a few "better" places to go. Β Maybe I'm just an optimist, but I like to think that (most) people are here for the art.
π: 0 β©: 1
tell that to the people in the comments
π: 0 β©: 0
Lets face it people, its a stupid picture.
π: 0 β©: 1
you not just jack off to any naked woman lol, you only do it to BEAUTIFUL woman, the art lie sheerly in the woman beauty. This woman here has beauty, round big boobs with firm propotion and that's enough, the background just added to the picture.

im laughing my ass off at your comment right now
π: 0 β©: 1
Yeah, I was gonna post the exact same comment, but you beat me to it lol I think the "art" element is becomming really vague for people nowadays, and it's just become all about flashing their naked intimate body parts and then calling it "art". Although if her boobs (as beautiful as they are and as gorgeous as the model is as well) are enhanced, then you can call it the "art" of surgery I guess XD
