[edit] Hello

Hi, Could it be possible that eroticism is the feeling and erotica is the representation of eroticism.

---

Hell no its not possible biatch

In that case eroticism is not an aesthetic.

Can anyone advise? --Jahsonic 20:17, September 24, 2004 (UTC)

Are we defining aesthetic as "heightened sensitivity to beauty"?Philosophically then, eroticism is absolutely an aesthetic; erotica, the representation, then produces the aesthetic. (Check the new version.) --User:Ikonoklast910 02:20, February 23, 2006

Aesthetic should rather be defined as a "value which stirs an innate subjective appreciation of beauty". Eroticism is the feeling of excitement and appreciation that results from erotic subjectry or action; hence the aesthetics of erotica. Just an opinion.
