As a former art student, yeah. I’m not eyeing up your dick, I’m furious at it because my paper is covered in eraser smudges and no matter what I do it ends up like beaker’s nose.
Meep!
Make it your style!
I grew up in Germany and people have less of a prude culture around being nude. At sauna’s everyone is naked: from old folks to children and there isn’t anything erotic about it. I think finding someone attractive and being aroused depends on that person and the context and less on the amount of garments they’re wearing.
The illicit nature of nudity can add to arousal simply because it is taboo. T&A are less ahem titillating when they’re common place.
When yoga pants first became popular, it felt like everyone had their bare ass right out in public. And now you hardly notice.
I mean, I notice every time, but I hardly notice every time.
Thats why they started making yoga pants with booty highlights
Well, that and thinking “Please don’t let obvious indication of arousal happen…” over and over even if you’re not actually interested in what you see can have the exact effect you don’t want to happen.
Okay, Tobias…
(j/k!!)
I have done nude modeling and I can confirm that there’s no time for the students to spend oogling when you have struck a fucky pose and they have five minutes to figure out how the fuck that elbow bends and why the hand is seemingly on the wrong side
I think non-sexual nudity is a really powerful experience. And one I’m glad ive gotten to experience.
The initial embarrassment can take a while to overcome though.
i imagine it’s better for the person who isn’t naked, and also more fun if it’s voluntary
more fun if it’s voluntary
Yeah I would certainly think so
Genuinely, they are lucky. How many artists and aspiring artists would love to have that opportunity on a regular basis.
Depending on where you live there are free or very inexpensive classes easily available.
And if there is not it doesn’t take much to start an association of artists and organize figure drawing sessions yourself.
Edit: And otherwise there are plenty of resources available online, you can check out Croquis Café for example
In my experience, it’s also just… normal looking people doing kinda weird poses while you draw, paint or whatever.
Like, man, I’m not turned on by this 60 year old man with a stick changing his position every minute for gesture drawing. In fact, it’s quite literally the opposite of a pole dancer!
I mean, even if the model is quite attractive… I’m not a damn animal. I am perfectly capable of appreciating how attractive they are, shutting the fuck up, and keeping it to myself while I draw
My friend hosted a nude drawing session once. There were only like 5 people drawing and one nude woman modeling. Everyone was respectful as shit. Hell yeah artists.
I’ve never thought about what it’s like being in an art class, sounds like it’s higher pressure than I would have imagined.
You want to be good at it. There are people in class around you that do amazing work. Your work will be judged by your instructor and pretty harshly by yourself. Your skill is so far away from where you want it to be. You’re just trying to make an nose look like a nose and not a distorted apple core, much less have any hope of defining your own artistic style.
Creating is hard. Getting your brain and hands to create what you have envisioned is really difficult.
Our pencils are hard.
People covered in charcoal and crying. New kink unlocked.

It was the movie Titanic, at least for one generation.
