Child porn police to investigate Elton John

[Mookie]

eeh. whatever.

better safe than sorry.

investigate away, i say.

Elton just bought a piece of art. Not sure why this makes him a pedophile. It's not like it was some kiddie porn ring on the internet. Having not seen the actual picture I can't make a judgment of whether it crosses a line or not.

You can see it here: Klara and Edda Belly Dancing

I'll label it NSFW just in case.

[Chimera]

Well, they sure look like consenting children to me!

[gas_chick]

Gotta admit I don't know a lot about art it wouldn't be something I would personally want to buy or even find interesting but porn? I'm not so sure about that.

[nycgirl]

that's sick

[Laxmobster]

Why would he even want that picture? It doesn't look like art to me, but then again I don't know much about art.

Was anyone claiming child pornography when Nirvana's album "Nevermind" came out? I don't think so...

[Sojiita]

Not my kind of art-but it sure does not look like porn to me.

I just despise how this all seems to tie into the 'men are the enemy' thing. Because there are some sick fucked up men out there, it seems that people and society in general have gone over the deep end when it comes to children and the protection of children. Because a rather small minority of men(not mentioning that some women are also sick fucks, but maybe in different ways..I mean who do most children suffer abuse(non sexual) from..isn't it the mother?)are fucked up, men are portrayed as enemies of children, children are taught to fear men, etc. Then society wails because so many children are growing up without men in their lives.

This kind of jumping to the gun OMG it is kiddie porn is so indicative of this trend in society of marginalizing men out of children's lives. Almost as sickening as the true molesters themselves.

actually when I read this thread title I assumed it was going to be pictures of young boys

either way, doesn't seem like "art"

Hooray gender profiling!

I do not really see it that way either for myself..but I CAN see how other people can see it as art -not porn. What exactly is so pornographic about it other than partial nudity(is that even part of 'pornographic..I mean just simple nudity even)???? It does not seem 'suggestive' to me?

OMG you are so right - I have a friend who is a lawyer and has two very young daughters. He told me he's terrified have a bath or a shower with them! My husband had both our kids in the tub with him, all the time. They loved it!

After seeing her other "work" at that link, her pictures are of a highly sexual nature.
If this is really art, why have they blanked out the childs genitals at that link then, I think that says something in itself. They know it's borderline porn.
I too have naked pics of when I was young but then my parents didn't exactly show it to the whole world to see. And I wasn't exactly spread eagled in front of the camera either.

If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck......

That is sick. Perv! If it were just the little girl dancing, it would be typical child's play. The child on the floor is Jenna Jameson-esque.

Total trash. Pedos!
