i'm aware of that. it was a metaphor. okay, let's put it in terms of art!
you work as a graphic designer. person gives you something to put on something idk. you don't like how the whatever looks. you can't just charge them more because you don't like how it /looks/. it's not really about what /you/ like in the first place. it's about pleasing your customer. while free-range (for lack of a better term) commission is a bit different, it seems a bit dumb to take commissions when you limit yourself to only designs you, yourself, like. not only that, the term 'ugly design' is so vague no one is going to /want/ to order because oh god their design may be ugly! you'd have to go over every thing you think makes an ugly design and explain to people why you think their design is ugly while, in it's place, you could have just drawn the stupid character with a grain of salt. the commissioner's happy, you have money. simple.

pornography != dumb design. one can makes you feel uncomfortable or go against your moral code, one is simply personal taste. and, well, if dumb designs really do make you uncomfortable then sorry to you, bros and brosephs.
and i don't think dumb designs exactly equal artistically challenging either. while it could be, it doesn't always mean it is. if the damned dog have three mecha arms and flaming-slash-rainbow hair with realistic fur, then maybe it would make sense to charge more for the effort given. but that doesn't mean all designs you don't happen to like are crazy difficult. so idk. i guess there is a bit of argument on that.

but whatever. it's no skin off my nose. the way i see it, if you do dumb, nitpicky stuff like that you only lose business to people who are more lenient.
