In reply to Margin Walker. That's the world we are in. When it comes to street art and graffiti, people are happier to say "this is cool this is cool this is cool" 100x over than to actually have a critical discussion about what is cool and what is not (and why). We try to spark a bit of a discussion here on Vandalog, but it's an uphill battle sometimes.

But Caroline did post a brief comment on Broken Fingaz’ photo (https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=739593272752511&set=a.191066244271886.44066.190642474314263&type=1&comment_id=2378557&offset=0&total_comments=59), Broken Fingaz posted a link to this article on their Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/brokenfingaz/posts/741077502604088), and (can’t find a link to it at this second) I am 95% sure that not only did I post a link to this post on the Vandalog facebook page, but I think I took out a small ad to get the link shown to more people on Facebook. Plus the post has over 1000 shares on Facebook…

I really appreciate your post too.
And: i guess many guys are willing to share these thoughts.
ummm….
But:
it might be easy to criticise from a distance, not beeing affected by the act of crossing as we might be ourselves, if it was a piece of our work.
Nonetheless its essential to regularly discuss the topics of men creating works of art, affected by their socialisation vs. the amount of awareness of these artists about their affections and authority and finally the reactions of the environment, ranging from beeing aroused or tired to censorship.
Sadly, i can see no discussion about it. You have not posted a comment on the mentioned BF-commentary sections nor have u shared this article on your own facebook wall.

In reply to Erica. The post was written by a woman, but thanks for your thoughts.

I’m glad I found this as i was raging yesterday after reading the comments on the broken fingaz Facebook page, right after a friend of mine posted this: http://justsomething.co/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/32-hilarious-test-answers-6.jpg

As a father of two girls I hope that men will stop being such fucking arseholes in the future but sadly I think it’s actually getting worse

I really appreciate your post. Not many guys would be willing to share these thoughts, and I agree with everything you said. Kill All Men is extreme, and most feminist don’t feel that way. As a woman, I agree that many of us are tired of seeing women sexualized constantly. If men were equally sexualized, or women were shown in different roles, it wouldn’t be so tiring or discouraging to see this kind of work. But this just makes me bored. Like, here we go again, more naked chicks getting f*cked.
I wish people would do something original for once.
