For context, I am nonbinary AFAB queer asexual. I also have autism, which might be why I don't already have the answer to this and why I felt the need to ask here.

Is it immoral or harmful to draw sexy female presenting subjects? I have been drawing pinup girls since I was a kid, and have seen countless other artists doing the same. They share their work in online spaces, some have a patreon. I want to do that too, it's fun. But I'm conflicted about whether this is wrong. Of course I would only post in where it's appropriate like spaces dedicated to nsfw art, or if I built my own online space, I would censor and make sure to have an advisory so people don't just stumble onto it accidentally.

I just need to know if it's okay. People should have a creative outlet for their more pervy fantasies. But I've educated myself about objectification, and have been objectified plenty of times myself. I know about the problem with art galleries having a lack of female artist representation but too many pictures of naked ladies in their galleries drawn by men which is one of the many problems that brought about the suffragette feminist movement. I keep all of this in mind but at the end of the day I still have this need to draw boobies. There was a Youtuber called sexplanations who I thought was great, she advocated for there to be a healthy outlet for sexual fantasies. I strongly agree with what she said.

I need to know that it's okay, and not immoral, and I will never ask again. Please. Thank you for taking time to answer.

Omg thank you. Yes! I want to join the club and be part of that artist sphere. I'm inspired by art by Loish, Tasia M.S., the character designer/creator of Delicious in Dungeon, the anime shows Utena and Dragon Maid, and Sam Does Arts, and Savannah Alexandra on Youtube. My cartoon style is more based in retro Western styles like older Disney and Vivsiepop. My art style may change or not look the same between two drawings. I just needed to know it was okay and I'm so grateful to hear this. Thank you! Can't wait to share my stuff.
