Any fans of non-nude art out there?

I've been in art classes all my life, and will major in art at the university, so I don't see the problem in it. "Real" art encompasses many, many things, from the examples posted here, to sculptures, to animation and comics, to graphic design, to silly little sketches that I like to do.

And honestly, when I was in middle school and took an art class, we looked at paintings like the ones posted here and my class, which was primarily 11 and 12 year olds, had a more mature reaction than yours about them.

In one word? No.

Exactly 😄

Censorship is one of the worst things you can do.

And thank you, Burly.

By the way sweetheart 🙄 if it's so offensive maybe you should lobby to have reproduction removed from our science textbooks too ✅
That's exploitation at it's highest 🙄

We're not in the middle ages. You're steorotype is quite pathetic.
Have you ever been a male artist who has painted a nude female? 😖

oh and you may wanna stay away from Europe where nude beaches are popular ✅

and here is something I consider art

and then there's the other half of it 😄

Sweetheart you are only getting "ideas" of the male mentality in you. Males have "imposed" their idea of ART in all of us! I bet you that any of your teachers told you that painting naked women is okay as long as it is consider art. What you dont see is that women CAN be exploited because of their bodies.

Can you name a female artist that paints naked men? Of course NOT! Males are notorious for using art as a tool for NUDITY!

For centuries males have govern what a women should do or behave. That was until this century! Women are joinin to put a STOP to male perverted paintings. Why dont you visit the NOW org and you will see.

last time I checked he was male 😖mart:
then again I'm sure that idea was imposed on me ✅

So lemme ask you... What about male artists who paint naked men? Are they gay?

I resent that comment... did I, JKozzy, try and rule over you centuries ago? I think not. You're just looking for a scapegoat for your insecurities in the very historical artistic grounds. If I go to school and ask my art teachers if nudity in art is perverted, or if it's acceptable, I'm pretty darn sure they'll go for the latter.

by the way which school of art do you go to xena?

I really dont care about males paintin men! What I care is how males paint naked woman and profit from that! Is a business similar to prostitution which is something that has to STOP!

Males always try to dominate females. Is call Machismo young man. From the work place to education. Males always try to be high and mighty than women. We are all equal!

Well you know what? I really don't care about women painting naked women, either! What has to stop is women painting naked men! They are exploiting the male body for their own personal profits and it has to stop! 😠

That came across as sexist, didn't it? It was. But you'll notice that it was almost identical to your comment, only with the sexes mixed up a bit. Men and women are all the same, except for their reproductive function. Therefore you are being just a tiny bit hypocritical.

Really? Now you talk about equality? Whatever happened to your theory of women being better than men because "Males are notorious for using art as a tool for NUDITY"? It sure seems you're quick to forget. I'm sure plenty of women do the same, albeit you don't, I know personally even a few that do. You fail to mention that women are equally susceptible to this.
