I draw cellulite.
Why you may be asking? Because cellulite is sexy and I draw porn.
Yes, you read that correctly, cellulite is sexy.
Now the very nature of cartooning means that we simplify a form. We take out the details that we don’t need and emphasize the ones we do. The human form can be simplified down to it’s most basic elements. Take a look at the image below, what do you see?
I couldn’t quite hear you through my computer screen, but I bet most of you said “a face”. It’s pretty cool that we’re able to see a human face in what is essentially two lines and two dots. But remember this, a cartoon isn’t an arbitrary decision.
When we draw cartoons we choose what information
to leave in and what to take out.
The parts of a woman’s body we choose to erase and those we choose to enhance says a lot about what we think is sexy. It also sends a message about what should be seen as sexy, and what is considered unattractive.
Cellulite is something that affects 90% of women (and 10% of men for that matter). If this so called “affliction” affects the vast majority of women, then is it really a problem at all? Isn’t it just a feature of being a woman?
Is not the soft suppleness of a woman’s skin, which lends itself to reveal delicate ripples on its surface, not an incredibly attractive feature?
Body hair used to be sign that women had reached an age of sexual maturity. It was appreciated as an incredibly sexy feature. A love could become lost in the soft texture and scents held in a woman’s body hair. Until society decided it was gross, and that we should remove our hair any way possible. No matter the pain or cost.
Cellulite can not be easily shaven away like body hair. So instead of taking care of it at the end of each day (fighting razor burn and stubble in the process), we try every cream, pill, diet craze and workout move until we finally give-in to the feeling that we are fundamentally flawed. We feel disgusting, and tell ourselves there are some women who are normal and sexy, while the other 90% must beg to be fucked.
Well no. The only reason we think cellulite is unattractive is because we are told to. So fuck that. Cellulite is sexy. It’s so sexy that I draw it in my porn. I draw close ups on butts that feature the soft puckering flesh of cellulite. I will continue to draw it, and when I get better at drawing stretch marks I’ll draw those too.
Sexiness is a matter of perception. You can choose to feed into the current sociological view of sexiness, or you can choose to believe what is right in front of your face, and under your hands.
Now enjoy some cute cellulity butts.
