Are You Serious??

Mon Nov 23, 2009, 1:16 PM
I can't believe what i'm seeing here.
A new member to dA has posted in his gallery four pictures of his penis. Clearly he's proud of what he's got. That's great for him. But it's not art. I could see it being artistic if it was perhaps a nude male sitting on a black or white backdrop, or something, with some artistic lighting, and actual thought put into it. Yes, i could understand that. But Four pictures of his penis,three of which are erect, does not qualify itself as art, in my own personal opinion.
I'm not a prude. I appreciate nudity and artistic nudity. But this just doesn't seem like it belongs on dA. Oh, and he's selling prints of them, too?
Yeah. Right.
But what REALLY bothers me, is that dA doesn't plan on doing anything about it. I sent a violation notice (and i wasn't the only one), and all i get in reply is "this doesn't fit the current definition of pornography". Okay. Sure, it's not porn, But it's not ART either! How can You not see that? My Concerns are Invalid? Are you serious?
That bothers me.

I mean, clearly, i don't have to look. That's fine, i won't. But still...
*sigh*
Or maybe i'm just over-reacting.

It might be worth it to try downloading Firefox. It's what I use, and i've never really had a problem with it. I'll keep trying to think of other things to help, though.
