I'd like to hear your definition, especially with regard to what type of exhibitionist acts a parent can legally convince his young daughter to perform. I don't much care for assertions of what "plenty of people" believe if they aren't attached to explanations as to *why* those people believe that.
My definition of "erotic" would require there to be a sexual element. Nudity is not automatically sexual, there would need to be something about the pose which could be reasonably associated with sex.
Things like spread out legs, arms behind back, and pushing forward of the chest? C'mon, the pose was obviously intended to be a sexual pose. The very title and theme of the song they were depicting is "Virgin Killer". The image fails to be "sexy" for the sole reason that it's a prepubescent making the pose.
