There are two thoughts I have for 'women' or 'men' who take their clothes off and pose
for pictures.

1) They will do 'anything' for money, and probably doesn't stop at 'just' picture
taking.

2) They have no pride in themselves, and don't give one thought to their families
who can open a book one day and see their own relative looking back at them
'completely', how embarrassing for all, except the sleeze ball who posed.

My husband was looking at a 'magazine' some years ago at work, as most of the
guys do, and was very shocked to see a 'relative' of ours looking back at him,
completely naked. When he told me about it, we both felt uncomfortable,
and promised we would never reveal that information to anyone in the family,
as I'm sure her parents new 'nothing' about it.

I suppose most would think we are 'just' old fashioned, but I'm happy to be,
thanks. I remember saying that about our parents, over other things that
were more innocent than that, so, I wonder what we will think is 'OK'
100 years from now.

I think the attitude towards nudity in our society is archaic. I wouldn't do it cause I'm too shy, but I think the world would be a better place if we saw more realistic naked bodies rather than silicone filled porn stars.

Uh talloolla,

These women were posing nude and semi-nude to raise money for charity. Where do you get off knocking their morality. The charities involved probably appreciate the money regardless of how it was made. Read the topic! For your information these women are all athletic stars. In any case your insults are completely uncalled for and you owe them an apology.

I make porn and appear in it, I have a pretty solid sense of self-esteem as does my "talent" lol

And we're not even doin it for altruistic reasons, besides supplying boners worldwide and makin money

I find that non-silicone women bein sexy for the camera is a sign of a very well developed sense of self in many (but DEFINITELY not ALL) cases

Someone thinks they're good enough to go buck naked for those who enjoy such things, more power to 'em, especially if they truly are easy on the eyes

I know a few people who have posed nude for various modeling gigs, and both of these comments are untrue and unfair generalizations.

Damn, I just did a reply, and it dissapeared, now I have to remember what I said, why
does that happen, when one hits reply, is there a way to prevent that.

I knew I would get a negative comeback, that's what I risk with my comments, but I
will stick to my unfair and sometimes untrue opinion anyway.
In your opinion what other reasons would people have, (other than perhaps posing for
an artist), (and that has it's grey areas as well, not all artists are 'artists',)to advertise their bodies for the public consumption. I've heard all the stories
about the struggling actress/model etc., sorry don't buy that, what about the struggling
main street public who would never do such a thing.

Never, if they want to raise money for charity, do something else, there are thousands
of ways. Opologize, are you kidding? I think it is my morality I am showing, I don't really
care about what they think or what their morality is, just don't like what they are doing.

Nothing wrong with 'semi nude'.

This is getting to be fun.

It's not the fact that you object to nude photos that I find objectionable, it's the characterization of someone willing to pose nude as being willing to do anything else for money. No way. Some maybe, but no, for some, many, women, that is their limit. That's as exhibitionist as they're willing to get, because it fits into their morality. A body's a body. There's nothing wrong with nudity. That fits into my moral scheme. To imply that a woman is willing to do other things for money based on the fact that they'd pose nude is more immoral in my view than the pics themselves.

As for the fact that they 'don't consider' their family... how would you possibly know? My cousin made sure the whole family knew when she was going to be doing a nude shoot, so no one would accidentally buy a magazine with her in it. And if they did, ew, the creepy factor's on them.

I have every right to disagree with that behavior, just as you have a right to disagree
with my disagreement, and on it goes. We all have that right.

I bought a 'firemen's ' calendar a while back,' no nude bodies at all', just a bunch of tough,
sexy guys, very masculine.

Do those porn stars, all pumped up with 'stuff', actually attract 'men'? If they do,
something is wrong with the men as well, as there really can't be anything sexually
arousing about those bodies at all, or do men really expect real women to look like
that, I wonder.
