Back about 1980, a renouned photographer took quality, artistic, black and white nude photos of me. They are nudes but definitely not pornography. These artistic and lovely prints are stored under my bed.

They are large, matted, works of fine art.

When I turn 80, I’m going to put at least one of the two up in my bedroom. (I’ll start with the one that doesn’t show my face.) Except for my cleaning folks, no one goes in my room anyway.

I’ve been thinking a lot about this. They should be displayed. I’m proud of them. I don’t want to shock anyone. According to definition, pornography is intended to stimulate erotic emotions. These envoke an appreciation for my past body and the artist who took them.

I’ll be 80. Am I wrong?
