It saddens me that a woman without clothes on is seen as sexualised. But I think that's a product of our society and can't really be avoided. At least we're not stoning them for it. As for art I wouldn't have a problem with someone posting male nudes. I see plenty of mens bits in the changing room at the pool and I don't go running for the hills. Maybe I should have set up my camera before I turned the cold shower on myself today. My facial expression would have been quite entertaining :) I can explain but it's a bit off topic... Since somebody mentioned cats here's a naked male cat for you. http://catoftheday.com/archive/2013/October/10.html Cheers, Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
