Not calling out anyone or anything, just a topic thats been on my mind.
What are your thoughts on an artist charging a nsfw fee (or an adult fee) on commission that involve any sort of visible genitalia.
Are you an content creator, purchaser or both?
Are you for or against it?
Are you an artist who does it? Why?
As a buyer, do you agree or disagree with it?
Do you think it should be a flat fee or percentage?
Other?

FA+

If it's because drawing a dong or a vagoo adds enough extra work to charge for it, then I'd be iffy on it. If it's ONLY genitals on show then the charge is pretty suspect, but if say, it were an explicit scene then yeah maybe I could get the artist's angle.
Honestly I've never come across an "Adult Free", but I can imagine it being contextual as all fuck xD
If up to now they've refused to do anything but clean they might get away with it, but if they've been down and dirty the whole time I don't see it working for them.
YMMV as they say. (and if one artist says no to bare tits there are dozens of others that will say yes because they need/want the money.)
If you want to buy something exclusive to that artist then you have to expect different fees that come with that exclusive artist.
If that artist chooses to charge NSFW fees, then that's their choice.
You can't expect a flat rate for every single artist to come into FA trying to sell art. I think artists have a right to charge according to their artistic skill. I am more than willing to pay an NSFW fee because I look for artistic skill more than the fees itself.
When I commission pregoo for example, She charges for background and sometimes belly, and I don't mind at all because I prefer the style that justify the amount required
Stuff like fetishes I might make an exception with some kinks that are more "dry" of artists then others, but it would depend on the artist style, quality, and the price.
If the costs are high enough I would just make my own art if it came down to it.
One thing about NSFW fees is that it encourages more SFW content for the artist; which in turn is work that they are more able to use for portfolios etc. NSFW content is not something you usually want to show off for most conventional work examples.
