Haha, I dunno.


Why do people always feel the need to censor the penis? It's really not that big of a deal. All guys have 'em and if ya' haven't noticed, there's a lot of guys in the world. Ha ha.

Hmmm :D

Yeah, I guess it just seems like a harsh thing to people. Some of my classmates are still surprised that I draw naked people, since I'm 14 they see it as pr0n when it's really not.
There's a lot of immature kids in my High School for a High School. xD
I still haven't learned how to properly draw the penis though. Too shy. I don't want to be walked in on while I'm drawing it. XD

See, most people regard me as "the artist" so they agree I'm mature about it and leave me alone. So perhaps as your years in high school progress, your peers may think the same and be more mature about it.
Although... my friends are a lot more childish about certain body parts than they should be. (Imagine the whole back table in my A/V class covered in engravings of cartoon penises and "lol"s.) ...It is pretty funny though that the teacher never said a word all year. Hahaha, poor man.
Well perhaps you should take a figure drawing class if you really wish to learn to draw it properly, but I don't think it's all that important to the picture if you have it exactly right or not. I mean, look at Michaelangelo- his penises were kind of odd-looking, but it didn't really matter much in the long run.
Haha, sorry if I didn't say anything useful; I'm a little loopy right now. :D
But I'll try and update almost every day!

Aah, lucky, I can't wait for some of my friends to take it a little better so that when they ask to see my sketch book they don't giggle each time they see naked pplz. XD
Lol, cartoon penises, wow, I'm surprised your teacher didn't say anything that's odd, was he old? :0
I'm only 14, but I don't think that matters, huh? I would like to but I think I might be too shy because I would be self-conscious with a room full of people drawing. DX That's true, about the Michaelangelo thing.
No it was nice reading your reply, I think I'm almost always loopy (not due to drugs, mind you. XD)
Yay, I love looking at your artwork. Even if it were half-finished sketches.

But don't worry, they'll grow out of it...eventually. Though I think they'll probably become mature enough to realize you're mature about it and leave you alone.
Have you ever taken a figure drawing class though? I know you say you're shy, but the thing is most people there are too and after the first few classes you'll start to get self-conscious less and less as you all get to know each other and form friendships.
Haha, actually ....getting to know each other might take a little while because of the shy factor. I remember in the first figure drawing class I took a couple years ago it took 3 weeks (1 class a week) for anyone to really talk with each other. And I'm proud to say that it was me who broke the ice with everyone! For serious- I stood up during break time and was like "Hi everyone! Let's go around the room and have everyone name their favorite color!" then one person was like "Shouldn't we say our names?" and I was like "Haha, yea, that'd probably be better. Okay, I'll start- I'm Lexi and my favorite color is red!" and we went around in the circle saying our names and favorite colors. The next week I was stood up and was like "Who watches LOST?!" And the only one who answered that he did is now one of my best friends. So yea!
Even if you say you're shy and self-conscious now, you should still go for it because it can turn into one amazing experience!
Aw, I'm glad you like looking at my sketches! I usually save my finished stuff for dA, so (even though I'm really just starting to keep up this art blog 'cause I finally have the time- yay!) I'm glad you don't mind the unfinished-ness of it all. :D
