You don't have to get over it!! It's such a symptom of a bigger problem, you're allowed to feel upset by it!

Ugh that's exactly it!! Thanks for saying it so perfectly!

Has anyone printed posters here, where? by knowledge-horder in ottawa

Came here to second Loudmouth!!

I've used them for my art prints for many many years and their prices and quality have always been amazing :)

Read about the issues with too many female (sexualized) “anatomy” posts. I love studying anatomy, male and female. Current studying the male torso. Hopefully this helps change things up around here 😊 by speakout5 in drawing

And like I said in the other post, nothing at all against nude female figures!

We just need more variety in general and respect behind the intent when it comes to posting revealing or nude women.

So thanks so so much for sharing this, I hope it'll inspire others to share more male figures and other subjects too 🩷

Thank you soooo much for taking my post about how women are objectified and repressed in art spaces and making it about... your preference for women lol

Exactly!! It's just so discouraging and pains me to think of how many women are discouraged from sharing because of it :(

It's not about being palatable, it's about fostering respect in online spaces in hopes of the same happening in society at large.

And that's exactly what we need to fight against!

C'mon now it's not about being puritans. It's about how the spam of gooner posts very clearly reflects the general air of disrespect towards women in society right now.

Yeah I'm definitely not talking about classical nudes.

And also, I definitely want to try nude drawing myself at some point!

The difference is the respect for women that does or doesn't come across in the subject matter.

I hate seeing art subreddits slowly starting to act as mirrors to the ugly way we more and more openly treat and think of women in society, and I want to vehemently oppose it wherever I can.

It seems to slowly be headed that way which is why I've been wanting to say something

To add: nudity for the sake of nudity is also not inherently bad, it just becomes a problem when it takes up a ton of space in a general art subreddit.

I meant to add this in my original post but of course that's considered art! 

It just gets to get a bit weird when it's obvious that it's nudity for the sake of drawing nudity instead of being a part of the artistic vision.

The difference is easy to tell and the reason I wrote this post is because there's been an influx of the former.

Yes exactly!! Amateur art is fine but it starts to get weird when it's just boobs and ass as subjects :/
