Is porn the purest form of art?

You might desperately want it to be true but how insecure do people have to be to think it's true (as a number of people apparently do)?

>> No.18660911

Good question. Perhaps great art looks like pornography at first glance though it actually steers you the fuck away from it when contemplating it.

>> No.18661764

>>18660085
Nope, the purest form of art is and always will be music

>> No.18661792

Is this worth reading or are there better books in the genre?

Also im not looking for art im looking for something that’s above fanfiction erotica though

It’s an awful book written horribly but it has enough hooks in it to make most frumpy “different” girls self insert so that’s why it sold well.

This is literally fanfiction. They slapped on a new title and changed the character names, the original book was actual Twilight fanfiction.

The fact that millions of middle-aged women schlicked to this proves that women have terrible taste in porn.

anon is right

Porn is the purest form of art, but that book is fucking trash.

No because it strays away from truth, not toward it

Yes if all desire is sexual like schopenhauer thinks.

Tolstoy would say so. He held art is that which ellicits an emotion in the beholder so if you get turned on by good porn then it's good art.

So do you have any suggestions?
Not here to debate stuff about taste but reading erotica from the female point of view with dominant/sadistic men in them makes my penis hard

Has nothing to do with art, for the same exact reason banging on drums to invoke a primal urge to commit acts of violence is not art.

Is this not the basis of music?

You have a very reductive view of art if art only stops at base urges that play at your instincts rather than developed, conscious understanding of the art itself.

>look at women's books
>it's all porn, thinly veiled porn, vanilla porn, or stories about women being fucked by men and having it change thier life
Agents who publish this garbage should be stoned to death. Can women stop thinking about their holes for one single minute?
