Response to Summer Afternoon (Erotica Aftermath)

from tom meyer (twm@mindspring.com)
One of the reasons I am willing to exhibit this photograph, is because it is so specifically erotic, without being very specific.

The feminine characteristics of this woman are subtle, compared to the erotic characteristics of the over all image. Why is this? The rumpled bed implies it's recent past, the fan in the window reminds the viewer of a familiar physical sensation, warm wind on your skin, and the quite deliberate title leads the viewer specifically to time of day, season of year and specific activity. The figure, however is obscured. Slight light reveals her, and an undeniable smoothness of thigh denies any masculinity.

It is (of course) conducive to male fantasy (it doesn't take much, you know), because (presumeably) heterosexual people are reviewing it here.

Perhaps certain women might find both perspectives familiar (observer and the observed).

I prefer my erotic imagery to be about shared, not imposed experience. To be accessible and enjoyable to both feminine and masculine sensibility. Am I making sense?p> Thank you for speaking your mind, I always appreciate your contributions to this overly masculine forum (do you have any sisters?)... t
