The line between porn and art

Amber, latex and collar
To some people, porn is “anything a child should not see”.  And to some people, a nude body is perfectly natural and acceptable for a child to see.

If porn is in the eye of the beholder, then I have to admit that I do draw a line and at some point say “this is porn”.  Porn is anything whose sole purpose is to elicit a sexual response.

Can porn be art?  I’m sure it can…  If you believe in the definition of art as “that which elicits an emotional response”, then all porn is art.  But usually we draw a line – porn or art.
