Comments on: Can Photos Of Naked Children Be Classified As Art? http://www.loadofbullshit.com/2008/05/22/can-photos-of-naked-children-be-classified-as-art/ Exposing The BS Around The Globe Sat, 28 Aug 2010 22:02:02 -0500 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: BS Artist http://www.loadofbullshit.com/2008/05/22/can-photos-of-naked-children-be-classified-as-art/comment-page-1/#comment-417 BS Artist Tue, 27 May 2008 00:28:58 +0000 http://www.loadofbullshit.com/?p=73#comment-417 These apparently were only a sample of the photos, but what we must remember is the interest of the children and whether or not we as a society are over sexualising them. Tale for example a pedophile who was convicted for having photos of kids on his computer (not necessarily in a sexual act) does it make it OK for Henson's to be accepted just because he is well known and can put a $25,000 price tag on it. If we let this one slip through, then what is next?

On the other hand, I don't know that they are signifciantly more creepy that Anne Geddes's Naked baby photos, and no one ever accuses her of pedophelia, so the question I would ask is how old does a child have to be before a photo of them naked automatically becomes porn, and how much older than that do they have to be before it's once again just a nakes photo? Don't get me wrong, I find his pictures creepy, but I can't say that they should be criminalized, we already have seen enough cases of parents because some moron in the wal-mart photo lab reports them for having taken pictures of their kids the the bathtub.
