Well, there's the question of -tease-.  Most fantasy artists do a remarkable
job in depicting the nipple under clothing that must be gold leafed on for
that level of detail.  One of the more bizarre instances of this is the
cover of the Thaumaturgy book, which depicts a topless woman.  What's
apparent, looking at it, is that the fantasy artist went for the tease; the
body was positioned just so, and the smoke was positioned just so.  The
problem is that, well, the artist, while quite adept, wasn't up to the task.
The result is a cover that has a woman with no nipplage where, by God, there
ought to be nipplage!

It's not just that it's a penis, but a _drippy_ penis.  There's a diff in a
lot of people's minds.

Well, uh, for them to notice that, the Powers That Be would have to _read._
