Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Suspecting you mean pornography... So here's your argument.
It's all about motive.
The reason for making art is different than the reason for making porn. Artists make art because they have an inner need to express their being in a creative way. Getting rich is not their reason for making art. (People who call themselves artists for the purpose of making money are generally fakes.) True art is inspired, and contains emotion. Lust is NOT an emotion.
People who make pornography have no interest in art, but do what they do with the prime motive of making money. They make money by exploiting other people - both the "actors/models" and the buyers. Calling pornography art simply cheapens the real thing.
Sadly, the art form of photography has taken a lot of beatings from people who misunderstand the difference between the message contained in art and that (or the lack of it) contained in pornography.
In short - the girls are right, and the boys are mistaken.
