Well she's no better than she ought to be (warning, slightly rude artwork shown)

I'm not sure where that phrase comes from but it was meant to be generally disparaging and imply a certain feel that the woman had a sense of self confidence.

It fascinates me how female sexuality and desire is portrayed in paintings and art. Even now there is a sense there is something dangerous or wicked about it. This painting though is called "La Femme Damnée" or The damned woman. To be honest I'm thinking she's feeling damned fine.

Any art to share depicting female sexuality? Not meaning as smut but more I find it fascinating how it is seen and how it's still perceived by some as threatening.
So confused.

If that’s what it’s like to be damned then I’m in!
And all that there is, is the absolute ugliness of being human. And you’ve got to love it. Or else you’re f**ked.
