People do nudes for a number of reason, from sexual titilation to a basic love of the human form. The simplest, most recognizable curve is the first one most of us see, out mother's breast. It's basic human nature to recognize and associate shapes as pleasing to us that we're the most familiar with, and to try to see those shapes in other objects. The Dome of St Peter's puts Madonna's C-cup to shame. Pattern recognition to sexual desire to feelings of safety and family. There are so may reasons people find the nude attractive, male or female. Even the best clothed figures are the ones that accentuate or bring attention to what they cover. The soft material of a t-shirt stretched over hard pecs and biceps or the stiff brocade around the bodice. Everything comes back to the human form. That concludes my lecture for Art 201 today. Please read pages 103 to 122 for the next class. And don't forget the midterm next week. Now I'm going to watch some porn.
