I think the two overlap but pornography can be enjoyed by people just for sexual pleasure and not aesthetic pleasure. That means, it can be just plain crude and animalistic, wheras art can be enjoyed at another level. Does that make sense?

Pornography is a controversial type of art and not the only one.
Simply put, there is some art you like and some you don't. That's what art is all about.
Even if you doodle naked people, that's still art.
It's a creative expression.

Depends on the individual. Taking a broad view, pornography can be considered an art, as is all music, even hip-hop.

I personally think all pornography is art. It's just specialised art. It has the same purpose as art: to instill emotions in the viewer.

Both depend on each individual person's perception. But I think that what someone else said is right: it can be Art as long as a significant number of people can get aesthetic pleasure from it.

most "family friendly" art websites draw the line at penetration.

"Art" does not (or should not) include porn.
Artists usually confuse the two to get attention.
