sorry for the sarcasm but i think your looking for primal urges, sexual release has nothing to do with our spiritual selves. maybe, just maybe when your enjoying sex with your significant other it can be somewhat spiritual, but it is what you make it.
and its not possessed by demons waar, i was just making a crack at the spirtual thing by saying maybe he meant the semen had spirits. they are technically alive after all, youll catch the drift soon that none of my jokes make sense.

I said hentai wasn't art precisely because it has no higher element beyond sexual release. In my second post I said that sex arguably has a spiritual aspect to it but just jacking off to hentai before going out to get drunk does not fit into that.

yeah sorry, i didnt read into both your posts thoroughly enough. but i can give hentai credit for one thing: they find the most creative ways to either get a woman in the mood or... get her tied up. some of the stories can just be insufficient back up like regular porn, but i find most of it actually gives personality to the circumstances and characters emotions.

Yeah it is art in fact it's art at it's finest because it doesn't leave out crap by censoring and stuff so it's real shit with art, and sometimes i just look at the pic's for their quality but still hentai is good whether if it was art or not so i don't give a fcuk!!!

Definately art.
heres a simple equation.
art=meaning=emotion=reaction to emotion=jackin off.
Its that simple, Renoir, Picasso, Angelo, etc were seen as erotic. This is erotic. Whats not to love?

Art, in its purest form, is expression. Regardless of how vulgar, inappropriate, or completely depraved something may be, that doesn't mean that it can't be defined as art. Personally, I try to find some type of deeper meaning in whatever I consider as art, but it doesn't mean that it has to be subtle. A man sodomizing another man with a screwdriver, the actual act not just a painting or some other type of picture, can be considered art in some contexts. If a person finds some significance in the expression of an action, whether it is photographed, painted, sculpted, videotaped, or even performed IRL, no objections can truly deny its artistic credibility.I guess on the most basic level, art is just an expression of something. It would probably be too complicated to define it as something more specific, and what could be called "art" then.

It's a basic urge. Art that is meant solely for intellectual and spiritual enjoyment doesn't exist in societies that don't have the security to allow for economic specialisation and meeting more than basic needs. Hentai is just porn that takes slightly more effort to produce. Actually considering hentai to have any spiritual element on it's own (sex arguably does but that's a different discussion) is either said in jest or by incredibly pretentious people that have very limited horizons.It's true that art meant solely for those purposes may not exist, but since anyone could do anything they liked and call it art, anything and everything is art, no matter what it might be. If it's captured in some sort of medium, then it can be viewed time and time again, if not, then so be it. Hentai can be enjoyed as just art, just as one can call pornography "art". Porn would have been used some time or another as art to communicate something, and as hentai is porn, we can definitely use it as art. Besides, why can't everything have some sort of meaning, or at least, be able to have a meaning attached to it, no matter how stupid and useless?

Of course its art, the people drawing it spends time to produce beautiful artwork. You do enjoy the artwork right and what might you call it if its not art?
...or maybe you would prefer stick figure hentai instead...

Anyone can interpret things as they will which is part of the essence or art, but if I picked up a copy of FFX and said "this is art" they would reissue it with "This is an art" on the package. Hentai can be art and artistic but it has an existence independent of the personal view that it is art. If you take a Van Gogh and don't consider it to be art then it's just a piece of rubbish. If someone takes a picture of Yoko spreading her legs and says "this isn't art" then it goes back to being hentai/a masturbatory aid.

So, depending on how one sees it, hentai and anything else can be viewed by a person as art. Yes, hentai does have an existence other than being art, but so does everything else one may consider to be art. Portraits are to communicate to the audience what a person was like, or at least what they wanted to be shown as. Photographs are taken to preserve a view of something, or establish something has happened. Music is composed to entertain, to send messages to their audience. They all have purposes other than the fact that it is art, but they all can be and are considered to be art anyway.
Since we can't really say for certain what art is or who is worthy enough to define what art is, I'll leave it open for everyone to come to their own conclusions.
Well played good sir, you have given me much to think about, as I hope I have done the same to you. Bonus +rep ^_^
