Today I opened DA and saw again the two hateful policy violation notes.
They say:
"The work(s) listed below have been removed by staff due to a violation of deviantART policy or because its theme or content was judged unacceptable. Your deviantART submissions must obey certain guidelines and restrictions."
and
"Your deviation CH.FOUR Reborn_Pag.44 was reported for Prohibited Content."
"A member of staff has reviewed a report concerning this deviation and has found that the work contained a depiction of a penis which is considered to be "erect".
Since depictions of erections are not allowed this deviation has been removed as a violation of policy."
Now....
First of all it doesn't show any erection. Goku's naked. that's all!
But that is not the reason for which I decided to write this journal.
My question is: WHY DO I HAVE TO BE BANNED FOR A DRAWING SHOWING A NAKED MAN WHILE ALL OVER DA YOU CAN SEE LOTS OF PHOTOS OF NAKED WOMEN?
Just because they do not have a penis they can be shown naked? while the poor men should hide it... This is SEXISM! I tell you.
The woman can show every part of her (and with every part I mean EVERY PART! I don't know if you have ever looked at the collections, but there are some of them which contains very detailled photographs of vaginas, asses, boobs, in every pose and situation).
Do they suit to all the publics? I don't think so. Surely less than a drawing such as that they deleted from my gallery. If I had drawn a girl in that same position and in that same attitude, I am sure, they would have not told me anything. Why?
Because, even though people say that men and women have the same rights, THAT'S NOT LIKE THAT!
Men can see naked women and not been accused of that. Women has to have a very strong inner force not to become red when seen by an other sex gender individual while looking at male nudities.
More than that! Look around DA. How many photographs of girls are there? Lots! Of men? Not so much.
That may be the direct conseguence of the genetical behaviour of men and women. But not only... That's the result of that absurd rule that tells that you cannot show penis in erection (if you do not see any fluid, what's the difference?).
So... what I want to say is that it is not fair that we must draw mutilated men not to see one of our deviation deleted. If it so, then women too should have no holes.
That's all.

Personally I think we should rally people together for this and get DA to either change the policies to ban images of women such as this, or, to make more DETAILED and SPECIFIC (but still EQUAL) guidelines about what is allowed and not.
Perhaps if it wasn't erect it wouldn't have mattered. When I saw it, he did look hard.

BTW I agree with you. they should add more detailed and specific guidelines.
It's art, god! Art is made of transgression. you cannot pretend to have an art community and have such restrictive rules!

I'm sorry that you have censored your art...

You are right though, it is wrong, perhaps it is because the sexual arousal of a man is more noticeable and easier to identify than an aroused woman. I mean, I went into the collections for the past 24 hours, and apart from seeing artist nudes of men and women which I find to be nice - have great tones, cool backgrounds and nice focus, there are those which -without reason- show breasts/vagina's/anus's etc. This is just in the past 24 hours mind you.
A naked women is fine, but when things are shown without purpose, then it becomes porn. In a few of the artist shots, the women are entirely nude, that is fine by me, in the shots I define as porn, the women are nude, but don't have a unique or artist pose which can be used to progress your art, they don't have nice backgrounds other than beds or plain colour, and there is no reason what so ever to be spreading themselves open!
DeviantArt is run by chauvinistic men who seem to think that women are nice to look at, artistic or in most cases, NOT artistic, but because they have the POWER to remove deviations, they think to themselves, eww, cock ... hmmm - oh wait, it's hard, *click delete* ahhh, all better, now back to the pussy!
It makes me sick.

I TOTALLY agree with you, why does this always happen?!?!
Definitely, genetics aren't with us, they want us to be submissive forever...
