Well, I guess that would be fair, as long as we don't confuse sexual appeal with artistic value. (Saying this in particular due to a poster guy ITT who said an another poster critical of the painting should "get some culture".) But the fact that it is posted on an art sublemmy and not some NSFW sublemmy, suggests that the confusion has occurred.

Lol. Great point.

Now I find myself contemplating how long one could theoretically go with a daily cross-post that technically fit the rules of both this and at least one NSFW community...I wonder if they would ever run out of eligible art pieces...
