nimblejack3 asked: man, i like your MtF transformation stuff, but the female-to-female bimbofication strikes a little too close to "women are objects" for me to be comfortable. it's gonna be a no from me dawg, i'll have to stop following your art.
That’s fair.
Bimbofication is an inherently sexist fantasy. I’ve said it before. I can’t deny its appeal to me, personally, but I understand that the ideas presented are problematic and that different people will have different tolerance levels. I’m sorry it also spoils my MtF stuff for you but I completely understand.
NSFW usually makes us think of tiddies. However, BimboTF often lacks nudity, allowing it to sidestep NSFW filters. It never occurred to me before, but your message inspired me to put a lot of my pieces on deviantArt behind “mature” filters for being ideologically sensitive. It’s not a perfect solution, but at least it sets them apart. I invite other bimbofication artists to consider doing the same, if you’re not already way ahead of me. I also realized I hadn’t set my tumblr to explicit. Eek! It’ll likely impact my traffic but at least I’ll sleep easier.
This is a good opportunity to reiterate that my work depicts sexual fantasies. It’s meant for adults to indulge a fetish and should never, in any way, inform anyone’s views on gender (or anything else, honestly, except for maaaaybe style). If you use bimbofication porn to justify real-world sexist behavior and beliefs, you need to read more books and do some serious soul searching (unless you’re with a consenting adult, of course).
I might draw porn but I’m still an artist: I want to make the world a better place. I sometimes wonder if my work does more harm than good… I think bimbofication art is a harmless way to indulge problematic fantasies, but only as long as it’s emphatically clear they’re just that: fantasies. Repeating that is the reason I’m answering this publicly. That said, I’m keenly aware my livelihood depends on maintaining that belief :/
Thanks for the ask! You gave me plenty to chew on. I’d love to hear more people’s thoughts!
