Who cares? It's all a game of semantics - 'erotica' - right. Let this lisping has-been, no-talent hack play whack-a-mole all he wants in the privacy of his own home and end up working at a car wash somewhere if he can get the job.

This is not a trivial question. I don't know what Ruebens had and I have always disliked his work (well except the death scene from the Buffy movie) so I am no advocate for him...BUT if he is in the soup for possessing images like Parrish, Zorn, Bouguereau, Alma-Tadema, Sargent or similar, who certainly used some models who look under age by modern standards then I want to know about it so I can raise hell.

There are many images from great and lesser artists that some prosecuter eager to get his name in the paper could misrepresent as "child" porn in today's hysterical atmosphere. A bright line definition of this stuff is needed so idiot prosecutors don't bust people for bathtub pix of their toddlers and copies of Academic Realist paintings and such.
