Yeah I saw that after posting. However, one post does not 70% make. While scrolling through many more posts I think I saw one more nude women, and one of a man (which got praised and no discussion about nudity - at that time I read).I also saw what very much looked like a pinup, although you could not see nipples... But there were no off topic discussion about the whole subreddit under that post at that time (could be now, as it was some hours ago I looked).

Thanks, yes I found it funny when checked the commenters complaining and it turns out they poste no artwork themselves, just putting their "opinions" under other people's posts.

In this I followed the natural light first but then changed it a bit, because I did not think the image worked, thanks for asking :) For example the background was dark irl.

Thank you. Yes, I don't put focus on sexuality and I was learned with classroom studies. The human body is a challenge, and also something we all share, therefor it is interesting as a subject to me.

I do draw men sometimes, all though I'm better at women - most models that was put in front of me when I studied were female. I am aware that it could be weird though, that a guy is painting (often younger) nude women, so that's something I am thinking about.

Well, I'm guessing they are a part of the loud crowd that think the human body should be banned from art, that we should pretend it doesn't exists, and everyone should adjust and create work just to please them.
Luckily, I've been around long enough to not care, and will continue study the subject in the world all humans share - whenever I want to :) I find it interesting when people who have contributed 0 posts of art to the reddit try to lecture me on what art is (like it was an objective thing).
