i have no problem with people appreciating the sexual aspect of the pictures, and more importantly i have no control over what people do with my photos or how they view them. i believe art is a lot more than the intent of the artist, so my opinion about the photos is just my perspective, not a final say. to me, they are about learning to see myself as beautiful and sexy, and having the confidence to show that off. it kind of makes me cringe to think that my expression of that is feeding into the cycle of objectifying and idealizing the female body that my own insecurities are rooted in, but part of sharing your art is that you lose control over how your work is interpreted. the comment was a small attempt to bring my intended perspective into the picture.

before jacking off to the nakie photos, please consider the following:
this is the shape of a woman who has taken a decade to accept herself as something other than the ideal set out for her by her family, peers, and society. her beauty has emerged as she has learned to love herself, the ultimate "fuck you" to those who have taught her the lie that she needs to alter herself to be adequate. how are you affirming yourself and others in their own, unique beauty?

Thanks for visiting my gallery. :3
To Justerika ~ No worries about me being some creepy dude breathing on my screen bustin a nut to ya. 
and to fords-rdodgy ~ Perhaps it's the type of comments you've left on her pictures (not necessarily YOUR comments, but those like it). There're a lot of gross people who carouse DeviantArt. Unfortunately I don't have as many visitors to my gallery as I want - but I have traversed the site over the years and seen some girls get ogled by some creepy people (I've even seen some girls delete their entire page because of it). As a note, you don't need to comment on every "butt n' boob" shot. Most artists like a single comment by a single person, unless they fill multiple comments with substance. Just a thought.
Welcome again though, J.
