--- Quote from: Gareth on 30 Apr 2015, 01:27 ---Taking the wider point out of this, you're actually agreeing with my larger point, namely that 'dude it's just a naked person, no biggie.'
--- End quote ---
Oh yeah, totally. I think I understand what you intended to say and agree with it, I just have one of those annoying things where I bring attention to my Personal Porn-Political Pet Peeves when I see people using phrases and transmitting memes which I think are harmful to sex workers/people employed in the porn industry. The idea that there's a difference between art and porn (which, you know, might very well exist depending on which aesthetic theory we use at the moment) has historically and up to this moment been used to damage the social status and economic security of women defying conventional sexual morality. And even though that is neither the intended nor even likely effect of that idea's usage in this situation, I felt the need to point it out.
I wonder why I never get invited to any parties. :psyduck:
Edit: Well, of course I get invited to parties, but I meant normal-people parties. The kind where I don't have to wear a leash.

Feel free to start a new topic in discuss. Could get some interesting discussion rolling.

Thanks, but talking about parties with strangers is the fourth worst usage of the Internet.
Oh! You meant that other thing. Yeah, sure, why not?
ysth:
Today's strip is really a nice showcase for how far Jeph's artwork has come along. Multiple angles and heights of point of view, hands holding a glass jar containing a snake...
Is it cold in here?:
It would be in character for Martenmom to say something to Claire about Bosch paintings, but clearly it won't be about her medical history. That's a place Jeph is scrupulously not going.
