The problem is, the stuff is catered to pedophiles.  For example, a friend of mine is a photographer.  She has hundreds of photos around her house.  One of which is her two daughters standing outside naked, muddy, and hosing each other down.  They look to be about 8 or 9, and when taken in context, the picture is really cute.  It was something they did on their own, and she "captured the moment".

Put that stuff online, and it's a pedophiles dream.  And that's just the true "art".  Now, people recreate those moments, label it as art, and market it.

In the end you should be thankful for those players like us who switch to try and help keep things even because our willingness to do so, helps a more selfish, I want it my way player, get to fly his latewar uber ride.

Don't know what book you were looking at but it may have been one by Maplethorp. Cincinatti had a big uproar over one of his Art Exebitions
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Sounds like you stumbled on a book about nudism.

We had customers upset over that when I worked for an ISP...the images/binaries on the news server.

The hard core pre-teen crap was offlimits and not there.  Yet the nudism stuff was ok.  As mentioned above, its depends on the fine line of art versus erotic poses/sexual gestures

Then again, us taxpayers fun art programs where elephant poop and anti-christian thingies are "wonderful" expressions of art in fancy museums....

Sorry...I'm all for gawking and mentally undressing the busty 17 year old down the street.  Pre Teen stuff...just aint right...
