So it seems these days that many people are getting into art. Some are rather good and others not so much, though I am in no way discouraging those with less talent than others. What one lacks in talent, one should make up with in persistence.
A consistent theme, though, among most "artists" on this site is a strong distaste towards the male body. Male nudity, to let those in the peanut gallery know, does not parallel with homosexuality. This rigid, outdated theme of only naked women for art causes me a great deal of angst. Most of what women are portrayed in isn't art, it's porn. Porn is NOT art. Art can range into material that, viewed by the ignorant would be considered porn. Art uses "sexually explicit" scenes with intent, not for jacking off to.
The male body is equal to the female body in beauty. To answer the question that everyone begs the answer to: It's because they're both the same species. If anyone cares to argue it, a female body is just a male body with generally more delicate features, breasts and a vagina. Fuck this idea of what art and sexuality mean when made or viewed. A male drawing or viewing another male is NOT inherently gay. It's all about intent.
