Better Than Real: Cartoons Fill the Gap
by Steve Task
Deimos Class Comics Nightcharm

I was talking to a friend on Friday. We were having the classic argument about whether cartoons “can be sexy” or not. All the normal points were touched on: the too-much-muscle thing, and the too-huge-cock thing, and the thing about how they’re “not realistic,” etc.

As much as I can nod in agreement, there’s a certain point at which I have to acknowledge my erection.

Live porn is often almost a cartoon. It’s created as a fantastic, tidy, neon-packaged alternative to real sex. Big dicks, stupid sets and bold lighting; guys saying things they’d never get away with in real life.

Real sex is easy to obtain after all, but real sex has real problems. There are uncomfortably small/strange penises and bad odors and inevitable moments in which you’ll evaluate your writhing partner’s degree of similarity to the unattractive woman at the post office when he makes that one particular face that he thinks is sexy.

You might not ever tell him that the face isn’t sexy, because this is real sex and there are manners and compromises that must be respected. You are also unlikely to say something like, “Fuck yah, ride that fucking dick.”

Fantasy fills the gap. And as long as we all like to see the penile equivalent to a baseball bat rammed up a willing hole in our live-action porn excursions, I fail to see why the characters involved mightn’t as well be green or purple. It’s not a huge leap.

Increasingly, we love what we see from our friends at Class Comics — and the Nightcharm blog has an entire category devoted to the art of impossibly beautiful two-dimensional men. Of course the Inner Circle (our Members’ area) has it’s own treasure trove of art by masters of the naughty cartoon.

What it comes down to, for me, is that reality can seem just-plain-boring sometimes.

    This is why Second Life is such a wonderful thing. 3D, interactive, live, yet still cartoon and impossibly gorgeous men (who can be green or purple or whatever) to have sex with.

    Most cartoon porn leaves me cold, but there are a handful of truly talented artists out there who do beautiful work. The stuff I really enjoy could be considered almost fine art rather than cartoon porn. Doesn’t need to show the goods, as long as it’s a well-done representation of the form.

    I like Josman stuff because it generally looks real. But all the Class Comics images with the ridiculously gargantuan penises are too ridiculous to be hot, IMO.

    I think homoerotic art is very subjective. Just like real life porn, some turn some people on; other’s don’t. I live in Japan, so I equally surf the net looking at Japanese erotic art as well. Too much muscle, too big of a cock, is really not sexy, to me. It’s too hard to identify with the situation. So even within American and Japanese homoerotic art, some artists are simply too unrealistic. Joe Phillips, Michael Broderick, the artist of robinhoog(dot)com, etcetera, put out art that is to me very hot. Others like Patrick Fillion, Logan, etcetera are really hot yet the cocks in their art are such a turn-off to me. If it’s fantastic it’s great! If it’s bizarre it’s a dud.

    I think personally any human form of a man nude is sexy , even in animated form.
