Should true erotic art be censored?

Why is male erotic art more censored than female erotic art is? ... how is that fair?

Is it considered more "obscene" because of the "external" nature of the male anatomy verses females being "internal" and thus not as much is visible?

... but then how do you explain breasts being commonly viewed which are also said to be sexual in nature by many prudes in society?

  • No not G that's ART! 👍 What's the name of that one so I can Google how to draw that one 😂👩‍🎨🖌️

  • Its not fair. Females are thought of differently.

  • i think there's a line somewhere between "art" and "pornography". but defining that line can be really hard.

  • I accidentally clicked on the wrong option. I'm all about the arts, no matter what kind. If it's erotica, let's do it right!

  • If you don't like pornographic art, view different art.

  • We already have a perfect censorship system for all art - don't look if you don't like it !! WTF else do we need? @ Laurie... the first pic of the covered women - what country is that depicting?

    • I don't know exactly. Many muslim countries require women to dress that way, especially Saudi Arabia.

    • Understood. Saudi Arabia was the last country in the world to allow women to drive, and it's only been a year. Bet you can't wait to move there, huh?

  • Well, you wouldn't want to see a painting of an erect penis in the hallways of a kindergarten or a sex scene on Nickelodeon, so there's a time and place for censorship and there's a time and place for explicit nudity.

  • ... Why? If people don't wanna see it then don't go looking for it.

  • No art should be censored. We have the right to express ourselves freely.
    I say leave the art and artist alone. If it's not for children then parents need to be parents and keep children away but informed let's teach instead of shielding. Erotic art depicting a sex act is no different except content than any work of art in any museum. The erotic art may even have a spot in that museum. Loosen up people.

  • No, people should be allowed to decide for themselves. As well it's a challenge to define what is exactly is considered erotic. What might be erotic to one person, may not be erotic to another.

  • I say E on this one.

  • Lets have everything in the open. Animals are nude, why not us?

  • F, let's stop seeing porn as taboo for no reason. Porn, sex and the human body in general is there to be enjoyed.

  • I dont think so it needs to be censored

  • True erotic art should never be censored. It's an expression.

  • As for myself I don't think that Any Art should be Censored Period Erotic or Not!

    • I don't use

  • Why not just sensor it yourself? If you don't wanna see it, don't look at it

  • Yes it should be. Only people of legal age should be able to view it. I don't think it's appropriate to bring your children into places to look at stuff like this LOL

  • Censorship sucks and not in a good way
