<p>Ugh. Whether this is true or not...</p>
<p>I just went from being pretty liberal about a woman's right to make choices about her own body to a FULL FLEDGED PRO-LIFE CONSERVATIVE. lol</p>
<p>Ewwwwwww. This is disgusting.</p>
<p>I'm always pro-life... I really don't think its a matter between liberal and conservative. </p>
<p>It always comes down the the lesser evil... and personal choices. American politics oversimplifies the issue into a conflict of two sides. </p>
<p>Considering the stupid reasons why people get censured and expelled from school, this definitely beats a lot of them... How does one become psychological motivated to act in this way?</p>

<p>I think at the point that we are having an intense reaction she has proven her artistic skill. Why must art be pleasing? I think the only bad art (or perhaps it isn't art at all) is art that doesn't provoke ANY reaction. </p>
<p>This exhibit disgusts me, and that is okay.</p>
<p>^ so is scat porn (think 2 girls 1 cup) also art? do you have any standards whatsoever?</p>
<p>Why is the Pietat or the David a better sculpture than your third grade clay bowl?</p>
<p>Things to ponder ;)</p>
<p>I think Plato's theory of forms explains this concept pretty well.</p>
<p>hookem - god i hope not. lol</p>
<p>I think that exploring the full range of human emotion includes disgust and horror. Isn't art an expression of emotion? I have no idea where to even begin on the "what is the threshold of something being art vs. just something disgusting" debate. I'm just posting stuff that pops into my head. Sometimes my arguments aren't in anyway coherent or relevant. I just form a snap opinion easily without thought. Thank you policy debate...</p>
<p>I maintain that no one in their right mind can have the following (perhaps not verbatim) thought process:</p>
<p>"Oh....X involves blood from a vag? And possibly discharged uterine material? And it's open to the public? I'MA GO SEE IT! I BETTER GO GET TICKETS TO X"</p>
<p>I think the girl's got "issues."</p>
<p>That said, years ago some "artist" exhibited a dead, decomposing cow and called it art. Not sure this is very different. </p>
<p>I'd say that "artist" had "issues" as well.</p>
<p>Edit: Here's the cow: Body</a> Works Exhibit - Critique by Marian Therese Horvat</p>
<p>That guy looks like a prick.
In all honesty, if I ever met him, I'd do my best to knee him in the groin.</p>
<p>scat porn is porn. compare nude paintings to pornographic images. one is intended to arouse, the other to exhibit.</p>
<p>lmao. 2 girls 1 cup. omg. that was the grossest thing i have ever seen -- well no. no it wasn't. guys, don't look at this but man there was this thing called hatchet v.s genitals (a.k.a. bme pain olympics). most screwed up thing i have ever seen in my life. literally.</p>
<p>scat porn is not art. it is weird ****.</p>
<p>whew. but yea this was intense.</p>
