This is a bad thing. There is a definite difference between child nudity and child pornography. I have studied artists who's entire body of work deals with naked children or children photographed in erotic positions (but with no genitals and not sexual). There is an inherent quality of the child nude that cannot be reproduced by a substitute. The child nude is an expression of the self as a contrast between the mature and immature elements of personality. The nudity can symbolize maturity as well as an emotional barrenness and vulnerability. See the works of Rineke Dijkstra, jock sturges, Sally Mann, Will Mcbride, and Ralf Mohr These photographers do not create child porno and in fact tend to dispell what is so taboo about the whole issue. ALthough personally not effected in any way, I feel that this strict issue will ultimately hold back 3D art from making breakthrough developments and a wide scape of art.
