Okay, so this is the second time for me to add galleries from x-art after their major transition to pornography. It is also one of the rare time in which I am adding a model who has a hardcore video on the same site.
I am not going to feature porn here on Graceful Nudes, but I think that what x-art are doing is none of my business as long as they manage to create some art now and then. Now FEMJOY (Joymii) and Watch4Beauty actually have hardcore, and everyone is joining their bandwagon, either by doing insertions, or explicit boy-girl scenes and orgies. I am not justifying their action, but I am saying that I am now inadvertently promoting porn without knowing that much about it. I think that Tabitha is very beautiful, and I think that this matters more than what she did there, or what she is going to do. Do you agree?
This set almost sets a gloomy post-apocalyptic mood, which somewhat suits the current world situation.
Some of those images are truly breathtaking. The images show a range of human emotions: pride, superiority, and some unique mysterious human quality. Tatyana's beauty is an instrument to set the stage for that. This is an example of how artistic nudes can influence the mind and rekindle hidden emotions and the hope that lingers in all of us.
A couple of weeks ago, I was contacted by a British photographer called Allan T. Scott, who sent me some breathtaking samples of his work with some very beautiful British nude models.
We decided on showing a small sample of his works here. With three alluring English models who prove that beauty isn't confined to Eastern Europe, and that there are some very talented nude photographers in the English-speaking world.
I admit that my favorite is Roseanna. Her poses are breathtaking and there's something captivating about her eyes. I hope that you like those sets, and if you want to see some more, you should probably head to FemNudes, that's where the rest of the collection of Allan's British nudes can be found.
This gallery has been on my publishing queue for a very long time. The reasons are simple, Eka is very beautiful, and the location is just amazing.
It has been a long while since I saw some refreshing works from Peter Janhans. He has changed the name of his website into beautifulnude.biz, but his style remained the same, and his galleries started resembling each other. It became hard to tell the difference between new and old galleries.
However, this one is slightly different, and that's why I like it. I hope that you'll like it too.
This is an essay titled "Coed Sleepovers" contributed by one of the site's visitors: David Hopkins. It's really worth a read as it raises up a very important question.

Coed Sleepovers
We sleep to rest ourselves, to regain our energy to use for the next day. However, I do not understand why we always equate sleeping with sex.
I have two friends: Mike and Sarah. I have never had a sexual relationship with Sarah and I do not want to either. My father says that friends of the opposite gender do not even have sleepovers because their genders are different. If I were to have a sleepover with Mike, my Dad would feel fine. Nobody would see it as sexual activity or that we are homosexual.
However, if I asked to have a sleepover with Sarah, Dad would not let me and Sarah would refuse. Why? For the sole reason that she is a girl. It does seem rather sexist.
Besides, even if I did intend such a sleepover to be sexual, so what? Teens go on dates which they intend to practice their sexuality. Yet, other casual friends exist of the opposite gender. Casual friendship is about what friends are like by their character and interests, not about gender.
Every single night, I sleep to rest myself, and I do not want people to tell me that I would be engaged in sexual activity if only a female, any female were sleeping in the room. People fall asleep on planes and buses anyway.
Sure, sleeping with or near someone of the opposite sex can be sexual. I would feel aroused if it were someone on whom I felt sexual or had a relationship, but someone like Sarah? I could never feel aroused by someone by whom I did not feel sexual in the beginning.
Several years from now, I do hope to marry, and when we do, our bed will become the most sexual place we could possibly be. Probably, another part of the reason why we sleep is so that we can spend some intimate time alone with our partners.
If I were to have a sleepover with Sarah, we would not actively be participating in sexual activity. We would merely have a presence of each other. Who is to dictate that by day, most people of the opposite gender are merely people, but by night, every single one of them transforms into a sex object? Let's take into consideration gender equality.
In my opinion, forbidding coed sleeping is like the Berenstein Bears story, 'No Girls Allowed' in which the boys make a club just to shut Sister Bear and the other girls out. If the people involved in the sleepover, are not intimately bonded, sex segregation is unfair, and unnecessary.
Should all dormitories be coed then? I would say not. We must respect other peoples' opinion of how they would feel about people of the opposite gender of a dormitory.
Would such a slumber party automatically, inevitably, and uncontrollably transform into an orgy party? Casual friends of the opposite gender do many things together: eat, play, watch movies, talk, go out; so, why not sleep? We only see two people of the opposite gender sleeping with each other as only sexual because that is typically the context in which people of the opposite sex do it.
If coed sleeping were only sexual, homosexual people would never be able to have a nonsexual sleepover, or sleep in a dormitory without people of their sex arousing them or their arousing people of the opposite sex. Describing coed sleeping as solely sexual violates equality rights between genders, and compromises principles which encourage other people, especially between friends, to evaluate a person from his or her inside.

A great essay by David Hopkins that he wrote in high school.
It's always feels strange adding anything from the new X-Art. The nudes are great, and some of them are highly artistic. Even the porn isn't disturbing (well, to an extent). I never have any issues dealing with ethical positive porn websites (AbbyWinters is a good example of that), but I am still to adapt to the new X-Art concept. Coco has simply changed a website that we have all loved, she reinvigorated it and started creating "artistic fashion pornography". Basically, hardcore and dildo series in which the model is extremely beautiful, even sometimes up to the fashion industry's crazy standards.
I think I am a bit indignant that she took away the somewhat calm website that we've grown accustomed too (the good old gODDESS) and created a high-energy wham-bam mix of nudes and porn, where the lines are definitely blurred.
I don't really know, it's a crazy mix. Somewhat energetic, but still strange. I just hope that you will not find it too unusual for this website.
NOTE: This link doesn't lead to a gallery. It leads to a portal full of beauty-supporting websites, websites that value and defend female beauty.
Superbeauty is a concept formed by Dwayne Bell, the founder of Body in Mind. It basically is a portal where beauty supporting websites are listed, along with some snippets about how beauty is admired/abhorred around the world.
You can go there to find more beautiful tasteful nudes.
I have Marveled at Liz's remarkable and stark beauty in a couple of past sets. I have received mixed feedback about her, and yet I am adding her again. The reasons are simple, I like hard features, and she seems to have a strong personality. I also really like the fact that she's an American.
Morey's work is revealing by my standards, but I managed to select a handful of images that adhere to my standards and show her remarkable beauty. I hope that you will like it. If you like things explicit, you can always head to Morey Studio for the "full" version.
Denisa is a wonderful model, and Evas Garden is one of the website that have some great pictures of her. I may sound a bit biased, but I think that the best images from her are only on VIP-Nudes.
She is on many websites, and she's one of the models that can show you the selection process employed by different websites. You can see Erro's heavy retouching in his sets (not a single freckle), you can see her being in an artificial studio environment that took away some of her beauty at Domai (Philippe Carly), you can find her at FEMJOY with her legs spread and her beauty somewhat mismanaged. I think that Evas Garden and VIP-Nudes are the only two websites that really made her shine, just go there and form your own opinion.
Meanwhile, enjoy her beauty in this relatively simple and somewhat retouched set from Evas Garden.
