those pictures come from whats commonly called the 'coffee
table' book.
a phenomenon that grew in the west in the 1980's and became popular
in japan in the early 90's, which continues to this day.
i, myself, do not refer to them as porn, but more as 'coffee table'
or artful nude books.
there is no sexual act happening, and if there is any suggestion,
then its usually very minimal.
it takes time, but look at playboy - once thought of as porn, but
now no longer.
playboy can sit on your bookshelf alongside tolstoy and national
geographic.
[mine do]
coffee table books are just that, books that you can sit down, have
a coffee, and look at them.
tbh, theyre not wankworthy porn at all. not even soft porn, since,
especially with any japanese publications, the usual areas or
covered, blurred or just artfully obscured.
this really is a no-brainer, unless youre an immature teen who gets
hard just looking at a suntan lotion ad on the subway..in which
case i hope you discover girls soon, that dont have staples in
their midriff, and talk back to you to tell you what a dumbass you
are..
[btw, i was referring to the pictures earlier in the thread, not
these art ones that appeared in the previous post]
