I don't understand why the female form, when put into artwork, must be sexualized. ....what i mean by that is yes we all know that being naked or seeing someone naked often equals sex, immaturity, wildness, immaturity, porn, a wide array of things seen as negative by most of society. however, in the world of art, which is a very broad term, its a thing of beauty, so why make it into a massive debate as long as both the model and the painter have agreed to it together?
