Talk:Masahiro Ito

Women
I don't find anything wrong with mentioning he enjoys drawing women with certain features. I also remember in an interview or profile that he's proud of drawing such things, that he admits BDSM is a hobby and interest of his, as well as sexy women. It's obviously an interest (and kinky fetish) of his. To deny this aspect of his work or think it's a less valuable point because it's sexualized, comes off as rather prudish and immature. If he enjoyed drawing dinosaurs in a ton of his work, I'd think this is worth mentioning too. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  00:55, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

Why are you so insistent about it? Again, "This guy has a big breast fetish because he draws big breasts" is an asinine thing to say on a wiki article. I don't understand why you're defending these meaningless series of words so valiantly as if I'm bullying your child. -Fireworks888 (talk) 00:58, May 25, 2017 (UTC)
 * Except that the Trivia NEVER mentioned a "fetish", just "enjoyment of drawing certain things". I don't think it's an asinine thing at all because it's an artistic interest, and a lot of people are interested in sketches and art of women, and how they're drawn, both stylistically and artistically. Ito really enjoys the female form from an artistic perspective, even if it's unorthodox. You're the one getting all annoyed and insistent because I merely mentioned an artistic interest of his. This is a wiki article about an artist and (by extension) his style and his work, and his artistic interests are more than worth mentioning and appropriate here. If it was "Ito really enjoys drawing dogs", I bet you wouldn't bat an eye, but just because there's women and sexuality involved, it turns you off. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  01:05, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

I'm not too fond of the wording and it being on the place in general (plus it's unsourced and even then I'm still not entirely on ship about it being on the page), and myself or FW never indicated it's a less valuable point on being on the place. I find the insinuation you're trying to imply quite offensive for someone (myself) who's studied art and currently studying photography who works in their signature style no one indicated it's because it's sexualised it can't be on there, we're on a wiki where sexualisation is a major point for fucks sake. I'm personally against it as while it may be part of his art style it's still something what just doesn't really fit as trivia in my opinion which seems to be the same case for FW.

 * We could word it better, and it's easy to get that insinuation. You're doing a bad job at explaining *why* it doesn't fit. If Ito enjoyed drawing dogs, would you say it shouldn't be mentioned? I doubt it. So this is all coming off as a double standard. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  01:11, May 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * I would actually say it shouldn't be, but er...thanks for trying. And I think myself and Ari have just gotten fed up with this sorta thing. Hate to do this Alex, but I think you need some time away from this place.  Daimyo Heligo The Forgotten Sinner 01:19, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

Seriously? The hell is up with this? I can't believe I have to come on here to say this, but there shouldn't be any trivia about big breasted women on this wiki. In fact, any trivia not related in some way to Silent Hill for Ito is just gonna get erased, I'm not going to sit here for the next couple of days arguing over this. So unless you can figure out a way to say that Ito likes big breasted women so therefore he made a giant titty monster in SH, it's staying off. Enjoyableari (talk) 01:09, May 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * So do you think the tank and manga Trivia should be removed too? It's not relevant to SH. Plus whether or not Trivia irrelevant to SH should be removed in creator articles deserves a discussion, or else it comes off as a double standard. — Alex Shepherd   ツ  01:15, May 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * Yes, if it's not directly related then it should be removed.  I'm not going to argue this, and as you've come up with no reasonable reason for it, it's staying off. Enjoyableari (talk) 01:19, May 25, 2017 (UTC)

Alex, if you can find the source to back it up, I'll support it being on there. If it can be sourced, then there is no reason for it not to be there. Then again, I'd be surprised if Ito didn't say it - who doesn't love some big tiddies? ;) -- Murphy Pendleton  :D  05:20, May 25, 2017 (UTC)


 * Totally agree - If there is a quote from Ito himself confirming it, I see no reason not to include it (It could be a bit better worded though, maybe just say he is a fan and practitioner of Erotic Art?) After all, not all trivia relating to the creators will be relevant to Silent Hill, and it does provide an insight into his artistic style. Dark Shackle (talk) 01:45, May 26, 2017 (UTC)
