I couldn’t agree with you more! Take this image from The Nitnth Floor , a series about heroin addicts living in New York City during the early 2000’s.

The woman in the image, named Jessie, is performing fellatio on a male in exchange for heroin. The photographer Jessica Dimmock gave up countless months/years of her own life to submerge herself into the lifestyle of a young heroin addict. It’s that level of commitment that provides viewers with such striking and real photography.
You can also find an interview with some of the young addicts here.
So I guess when it comes down to it some images that inspire me do involve fellatio but i guess it all has to do within the context of the series. I’m no fan of vulgarity just for the sake of it. Yah know what I mean?
