"Rosity, while not to the degree of Rotica has the same problem. In the midst of the playboy-esque images meant to be sensual and sexy, you can't present nude child images and expect people to consider them protectable art" ShadowWind, your comment sounds reasonable to me. Although I agree with it only to a certain extent. It is clear and I agree that if I mix adults and children in an erotic picture context, the content becomes unacceptable. But this should not lead to the banning of all artistic and decent nudity regarding minors. The equation that nude of a minor always equals indecent nude, does not find me in agreement, and if someone asks me why, I reply "just look at the art links I posted". I never made such an image (I mean an artistic picture with the nude of a minor), but now I am really tempted to produce one and submit it, just to start a discussion and raise the issue of what is acceptable or not.
