(~) Artists guilt / Lewd desires 

You might think this about that feeling that you aren't drawing enough & while I certainly feel that way it's however not what's on my mind.

Call me thirsty, but sometimes I just want to give in to my own desires & draw stuff. Things like a certain type of intersex character that I adore... but then comes the guilt: Am I objectifying? Am I doing bad? Thus I don't do it... I was wondering, do other artists feel similar, having guilt keeping you from drawing?

We do not like chasers & what makes a chaser is when attraction turns to objectification. I would not objectify anyone or any type of person, all I'd want to do is visualise a desire, but in doing that others might read different & be hurt...?

I think part of the problem is longing for companionship, thus trying to give life to a dream through art. Part of it is sexual, I will not deny that, but it's much more than that too, however that might be all others see.

@ulvra pupper is good and moo thinks it'll be OK for pupper to draw those :purple_sparkling_heart:

@maxinered Thank moo ❤️ I still don't know, I can't not feel guilty about it. It's complicated.

@ulvra complicated pupper problems! But moo understands and it's OK
