stuff on kinks and sex negativity 

hmmm this is something I’ve noticed but no one ever stands up against the mockery of fetishes. I see it on Tumblr from time to time (I have a pretty nice Tumblr though, most people are good about this) and mocking is pretty common on TV especially. I hate watching the TV and being assaulted with sex being used to sell things, but then tons of value judgments being thrown around that are completely sex negative. It’s arbitrary and that makes it very hurtful. Things like BDSM constantly being treated as a punchline or absurd so it’s funny. Like check out your douchebag boss he totally likes being gagged on all fours!! ha ha ha cool now you, “nice guy” protagonist can blackmail him into being nice to you yeah awesome. (sorry, I use that example a lot but I’ve seen it twice in movies now and I always feel bad about it because… dang you invaded someone’s privacy and now you’re gonna use something as sensitive and private as sexuality to embarrass them idk he’s mean but you’re no better now). But that’s the point, I mean all paraphilias and kinks are pretty sensitive and I mean if you’re attracted to feet why do you have to be laughed at when it’s not on a neurological level so different from being attracted to breasts. Sexual arousal from breasts ISN’T a naturally inherent human response fyi, it’s a widely common fetish that stems from the taboo of nudity. Anthropologically, in cultures where women are bare-breasted, sexual attraction to breasts is not common and seen as unusual.

There’s no inherent moral value attached to arousal, it’s how you address it and where empathy comes into play (this is especially important for people who have paraphilias that would harm themselves or others if acted upon). All that matters morally and ethically is empathy and being able to treat yourself and people respectfully. Getting over sex-negativity and rehabilitating my sex education has been super super helpful in helping me deal with emotional issues and anxiety regarding morality (I have scrupulosity OCD but I’m secular so adequate self-help is really hard to find ah…). Outside of mental issues, really understanding sex-positivity has made me an even more understanding person so I wanted to share since most people here are young and good sex education is important. I want to link to this blog!! It’s a lot of fun to follow and it’s a really good place to re-educate yourself in sex-ed.

Anyway, this isn’t to shame anyone that has made fun of paraphilias or to make anyone feel bad for doing it. Just letting people know there is way to feel about this kind of thing that might jive with you better emotionally. When I was younger I might have been one to laugh too but I owe a lot of peace of mind and personal growth to better understanding the nature of sexuality without the knee-jerk reactions and it’s definitely made me feel safer so I thought I’d share.

I was hoping to share some more elaborate work before more studies and doodles, deja vu haha, but a unusually stalled low mood with lot of things getting in the way surely didn’t helped. Who cares, let’s keep going! =B   Mostly random cute characters. An art pal was on the sketching phase of a Cthulhu illust, and that’s were comes my dystopic Cthulhu haha.  Acording to my sis, that panda girl is too fat. ;=^1 I see where the problem is  …  the panda girl is just fine.  I think I have a serious problem with variety refering to pants, 95% of the time all I can think of is “jeans”. Not like the 95% of the pants I wear being jeans have something to do with it, not at all hahaha

Some color studies. Welpsfrt.., more like March’s studies. Has been painfully unproductive since then, has to get over some things.

Besides the aircraft (SR-71), and the beach sunset, all were done, sort of done haha, on 30 min.

A few more doodles~

Done during the first 2 months of 2013, in this order.

Painted in one layer (except a couple of experiments), twice this size, and.. I was supposed to spend 30 mins but I keep painting up to 1, 2, or more hours with many.

My mayor difficulties comes when there are highly iluminated spots, textures formed by colors too far apart, and when there is too much different stuff one in front of another.

Realized that I consistently paint everything with less contrast and, before putting all these together, I tougth that also darker but look kite like the opposite.

A few fanarts that were scattered all over my archives.

Well, that black cat (Jiji) was some sort of study from a “Kiki’s Delivery Service” snapshot. I don’t like to post studies from others artists works, unless is a master study or something like that, but this one feels simple/obvious enough, I don’t know =B

I specially like that Buster Bunny. An artist was drawing a bunny character in a livestream and then this image showed up in my head.

That’s what I liked about, even if it’s not something very complex, it went from my head to the doodle with total fluency.

I still can’t control that, so it’s nice when this happens.

tsk.. In addition to the doodles and studies I must stop procrastinating illust/comics/refined works.

Is like that old but persistent poisonous voice that whispers “you can’t possibly do that”, “that’s too much”, “there will be a great difference between what you intend to what you will get”… yeah, one of those …is still too strong when it comes to personal refined works

Working on fixing my bad habits!!

Dammit.., my characters poses tend to be standing or doing a light step.

Hopes I also make a step ahead and improves that.

Doodles!…

Dunno if that’s really a thing, but I think I prefer to become the kind of artist whose thoughts shape his styles, instead of sticking to one style and then let it shape your thoughts.

I love many kinds of style, but some are more problematic than others.

For example, when I try truly realistic styles without ref they ended up with a dash of cartoony, that can be good, but still isn’t where I were intended to end.

I need to know more. (Well, we always need to know more haha)

These are a couple of landscape studies, that were aiming to help with a project that remains unfinished, but I think they alone worth to be shared.

Well, at least the first, althought I was aiming for realism and turned out a bit cartoony =T

The second one turned kinda mehh, but I tryed =’B

I shamefully took the last name of this great scientist, and overall character, as..  some kind of nickname many years ago, not knowing such kind of a big deal he is. Why keep it?, why this one and not another? Well, first of all, before knowing how he really was, knowing very little about him, I already suspected that we were quite similar. Of course I don&#8217;t have myself so highly esteemed! I totally pale beside him, but we are very similar under one light. The way we see, face, think, marvel, about everything around, and these characteristics that happens to be shared with him, also happens to be ones of the very very few things I&#8217;m sincerely proud of myself. Next to that, It remind me that there was a time I was a student of physics, and that I never finished my studies due to all of my defects, my bad costumes, sloth, and so on, all of them put in there by myself. In short, &#8220;Feynman&#8221; reminds me the best and the worst of myself, so I thing is good to keep it near.
