i think people can have issues with overconsumption and detachment from reality relating to porn but i don't necessarily like classifying it as Addiction and I know I've reblogged a study about it on tumblr but as usual the search function is. useless lmao. but certainly yeah it does not and should
drawing smut is one of the least sexy activities there is.
there was a two panel comic i can't find anymore, that said it best
panel one, what people think: artist masturbating to their own art
panel two, reality, them just getting SO angry abt their anatomy not being right
ok this was not me "appealing to the morality police" i just genuinely dont find the process of drawing nsfw that titillating... the process of coming up with IDEAS is though
I just do not like the "porn addicted gooner" thing because its silly to say in the first place. liking sex is normal.......
honestly once you've been looking at something for long enough it becomes mundane. even if at the start of a drawing you're getting off, you definitely aren't by the end of it
a lot of these "porn artists are gooners" haven't spent five minutes in a life drawing class and it shows. you get over the shock of seeing nudity real fuckin quick because you've got a sketch you need to finish before the model changes their pose.
??? there's people who straight up write smut with the blankest face imaginable, how is it farfetched for an artist to be the same when drawing nude bodies
Renaissance artists get PAID to create gooner art pieces and they get praised for it but god forbid someone like me wants to draw a titty or 2 for the sake of escapism in this cruel world
gooner/porn addict accusers are so bizzare. Like sorry you have a weird relationship with the body and intimacy but i don't see how that's my problem or who made you the status quo 'decency' police- as if the status quo's relationship with sensuality is even comprehensible.
FOR REAL like sorry, I'm just horny which is totally normal... we need to de-stigmatize sex... i'm so concerned for the younger gen who push this stuff
It's not even about normal or abnormal for me- all I ask for is consistency and saftey if more then one is involved. The status quo is terrified of healthy sexuality- yet half-naked AFAB bodies are everywhere in advertising, media, ect. Handsome shirtless men leer everywhere but IM weird, sure.
Ppl think NSFW artists goon to what they look at/draw but they don’t realize 90% of it is screenshotting refs on xvideos in a rather clinical and detached way. I’m like “yes the pose here is so striking. Dynamic. Great sense of action, I will use it”
TRUE. Man, I don't even see porn as porn anymore. All I see is references to study. I'm like: "Ball Draining Sluts 3 had great lighting, I'm using this in my next piece." You know?
