I may not be the first to say it, but I'll say it regardless. Incredibly Gwylan core to me.

honestly, especially in the current state of the world, you all have GOT to kill whatever puritanical voice inside your head keeps insisting that if something is erotic it has no social, artistic, or intellectual merit.

stop acting as if someone can’t enjoy both erotica and literary fiction or classics. it’s not some dichotomy.

stop acting as if erotic art can’t be poignant and meaningful. and that includes all erotic art - not just fine art.

stop insisting that sex scenes or erotic material ruin movies and shows just because you, personally, get icked out watching it.

no, not all erotic art is high art, and not all erotic art is meant to invoke deep intellectual discussion - but insisting that makes erotic art valueless, a disservice to intellectualism, or whatever else - does nothing but add fuel to a fire built on conservative ideology.

correct me if i'm wrong, but i do feel this tends to stem from a lot of people divorcing sexuality and eroticism from human nature. it gets degraded to being a "base instinct" or some animal urge, but the way we engage with sex and kink is actually a valid way of interacting with the world around us. it's cathartic, it's freeing and it is almost one of the best ways to display character dynamics or certain contexts in art, i stand by it. is it a show of equality? or dominance or submission? how much of it is the people involved letting go and how much of it is them putting on a show for one reason oe another, even during the most vulnerable moments?

sex is inherently human, it's part of the human experience. no matter how you feel about it, like it, hate it, don't feel anything towards it or desire for it— it doesn't change the fact. even if we were to entertain the notion that it is something base and animal, that still doesn't diminish its worth. people are animals. it's a fact often forgotten due to fear, disgust or a desperate need to rise above the simple facts of our bodies. to disregard the animal in you is to try and sever a dichotomy that defines humanity itself.

there are valid concerns about the inclusion of the erotic for monetary reasons or for exploitation, but that is not the fault of sexual content itself. if a piece of media feels genuinely predatory in its eroticism, it is not the fault of sex being allowed in media. it is the fault of people using it to do harm.

puritanism doesn't work. censorship doesn't work. you need to understand that the tools at hand are valid and important, but easily misused. they're not the enemy to art, morality or the rational mind you think they are.

As someone in and around their 30’s it has been INSANE to see feminism in popular media descend through

Women can wear pants and play sports and that’s equality. Women don’t just belong inside the house. This woman has a career

This woman can be a mechanic just like a man could. She’s probably still a lesbian, though, which is basically the closest to a man a woman can *be*, and explains everything. But she’s still a person!

If a woman superhero CHOOSES to wear stilettos to fight crime, that’s girl power! This comic character written and designed by men wears a bikini and has a waist size of 12 inches because it makes her FEEL POWERFUL! Girls don’t HAVE to dress boyish to be strong! She can make you a sandwich AND be a feminist! Girl power!

What, are you saying women HAVE to do boy things to be taken seriously? Who are you to tell a woman what to do? Maybe some women NEED to get their hair and nails done twice a month to feel powerful! Maybe a lot of women WANT to be stay-at-home moms!

What I don’t think you understand is that women have an inherent feminine spirituality which guides them towards maternal and nurturing paths. Women need to honour their divine female aura to keep their. Their fuckin. Their chakras together or some shit. You should put quartz up your hooha and huff wheatgrass. Leaving manual labour and science and technology to men is natural and good for you spiritually

Uh she can’t do that, that’s a blue job, she’s a pink job girly. Food? Yeah, she’s having #girl dinner, which is a handful of almonds. Time for our 15 step skincare routine, which is empowering. Hashtag #girlboss. Ew no, touching dirt? She’s just a girl. You can’t expect a girl to do that. Haha #girl logic

traditional doodles it is, we're getting back into art if it kills me

i originally wanted to get back to ada given all the new temple clothes we got with the latest update, but she was perfect where she was thus: meet eve

ill try doodling her more? but i am wildly amused by the fact that none of the women i have made for the temple are the kinds of women that fit most religious ideals despite them being ascended into essentially sainthood given angel tf

what has everyone been up to with the recent updates? i'm personally finally sitting my ass down to do hopeless cycle for the forest shop clothing collection.. it's wild but really fun!!

i see where people are coming from with some of its cliches, but i think they work really well for what the story is supposed to be??

Great and now there's this. Theres truly no room for an ounce of complacency this is a direct attack on queer creatives.

Here's a link to the whole thread for more context

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy.

Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It mu

Hey, so the ACLU is gearing up to take this on if yall have room to support this org, it would mean a lot to me (and other adult queer creators). As always, word of mouth is really important here too so reblogs are greatly appreciated.

lil seasonal outfits for that mistria pc of mine, they didn't come out Great but i'm just glad i did them considering how much of a struggle art has been lately

i have considered doing this kinda thing for some dol pcs but i have too many and i'd feel bad leaving any of them out 😭 though maybe marion would be fun to do instead? i'll see

simple swimsuit under the cut, least canon since the game doesn't really have swimwear options yet to my knowledge

[killthedove]

the account's not dead but we're on a detox from digital art to practice traditional

as a heads up, i might post abt fields of mistria far as art goes since it's swallowed me alive, case in point above drawing of my little farmer's summer outfit

funny enough it does make me wanna open up dol again to do farm content properly for once pff

[killthedove]

god above thank you for the gender separation update 🙏🏼

BUT ALSO HELLO THE NEW CLOTHING ITEMS.. oh.. oh marion calls to me.. or at least some kind of princely or fancy pc, i did always really like the idea of a pc that despite living in abject poverty for a good while splurges all their money on looking like a little ouji lolita poster child

the type of guy to befriend kylar so he can claim that yes he totally lives on danube street yeah that's why he's there

the fancy car avery drives him to school in? that's his, aha

he will actively contemplate poisoning whitney if they find out he's from the orphanage and threaten to tell

[degreesoferror]

I think that we should talk about how, in terms of the TFs, it's largely regarded in-universe as only semi-real, with people like Robin referring to the PC's TF, but random townies either ignoring it or using it mockingly against the PC.

We should also talk about how you, generally speaking, can't start with a TF, you can only really gain one. How being through hell in the town will change the PC on such a deep level that it either changes their entire chemical structure, or it forces them to believe that it has.

In this essay, I will explain how the PC is heavily implied to have a dissociative disorder wherein they believe themself to be either sub-human or beyond human standards so much so that it makes them believe that they are physically nonhuman-
