Under pressure from their wives? :-)
I always remember the story of Sir Richard Burton's wife making a
bonfire of his writing and collected 'stuff' after he died because she
disapproved. A lot was lost that day.
I think art and porn are mutually exclusive terms. Lines get blurred
with art porn or erotic art but if the intent is to produce art then
it ain't porn, no matter how explicit. It may be offensive or explicit
but it has a 'narrative'.
