Anyone who's spent a decent amount here at dA and actually reads a lot of comments on deviations has surely come across some angsty larva trying to defend itself by asking "who are you do judge me?" I dont have to listen to you!" or some other stupid blind-like response like that.

Ill skip the part about how this is a community and that if you dont like criticism, you suck ass; it's common knowlege, and no sense to beat it any further.

But the "who are you to judge me" part extends far beyond just art.  In fact, a lot of artists like to be judged by their work.  You know, good work = good artist, and so on.

Question:  Who are you to judge me?
Answer: HOMO SAPIENS

Judging is the natural thing to do.  It's nothing more than to assess the situation!  We're driving.....light is red...we JUDGE that we gotta stop or else we're mashed potatoes.  We see a hot girl, we JUDGE whether feeling her hooters is a good idea or not  We are at work, we gotta work overtime, we JUDGE that it sucks.  

We look at art....we JUDGE whether we like it or not.....and inheritably, we JUDGE whether the artist is good or not based on their imagination and skill to represent such imagination (even though it's possible and frequent to not like something but recognize the skill and imagination).

Is it possible to judge (part of) a personality by the art?  Absolutely.  Isnt it fair to say that, once having taken a look at my gallery, or even my main page here, that I like astronomy?  I'd think it's a safe bet.   So would it be a fair bet to see some bestiality drawing and think that there's something wrong in the mind of the artist who drew that, especially considering that they werent really paid for and did it merely as a pasttime activity?  ABSOLUTELY

Oh and don't come with the "oh but we all have different tastes."  Yes, we do, but ever heard of boundaries?  

Or you can just skip all this........study law......become a judge........and be all "We'll....i'm a JUDGE"
