If your child was a senior in high school and his art teacher allowed for the students to draw nude and sex pictures, would you file a complaint?

If someone was walking around your neighborhood nude, how would you react?

Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?

Why? Why not?

No. If it was causing problems, I would.

I wouldn't.

Nah. Not worth it.

I would go speak to the teacher about it first. There are plenty of perfectly fine nudes in the fine arts, and honestly if you really want to learn how to draw the human figure, the best way is drawing nudes. If college, I wouldn't give it a second though.

Phone the cops. We have laws against that.

Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?

Absolutely not. 1. Sex is a private thing and 2. Look at all the examples of problems people have had over putting videos and pix online like that.

Many people seem to have lost much of the sense of privacy and end up doing really stupid things online and finding out the hard way that privacy is not such a bad thing after all.

In school and college we did have nude models to draw from both male a d female and that was over 50 years ago. How else can you learn to draw people, unless you can draw from the nude structure. You can not draw a convincing dressed person, unless you understand the underlying structure.

local nudes I have only seen in their own gardens and on the Beach... and that is not a problem.

Porn is porn but why should I want to Join in. There are already quite enough who do.... but live and let live.

No, probably not.

I'd say "Ha, there's a nude person outside!"

Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?

No.

Why? Why not?

I don't wanna.

"Allowed" would be fine, as long as it wasn't required.

If someone was walking around your neighborhood nude, how would you react?
Probably ask them if they needed help, on the assumption that such a person was probably disturbed or in unfortunate circumstances. If they looked crazy enough to be a threat to the safety of others, I might call the cops.

Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?
No way. Not merely naked, either. The less the world sees of me naked, the happier we'll all be.

Yeah, I can see requiring students to draw nudes, but not "sex pictures."

These days people have no foundation, there are supposedly now, no moral absolutes. If it feels good do it. Well, knock yourself out. And good luck.

What if they have a foundation, it just isn't your foundation and what if they have absolute morals, they just don't agree with your morals? You know, your holier-than-thou attitude irks me.

I am a poor, miserable, hopeless sinner saved by the undeserved favor of God, and I am in no way holier than anyone. I agree they have a foundation and it is not mine, I don't believe they have absolute morals, but relative morals.

No. There was one guy in a ceramics/pottery class that made a nude female cookie jar, allthough he made it obvious it really wasn't for artistic purposes.

If someone was walking around your neighborhood nude, how would you react?
I'd probably do nothing.

Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?
Maybe taping, but definitely not putting it on the internet.

My moral foundation is to not hurt others or restrict them of their rights.
I think I said folks can go ahead and knock themselves out if that's what they want. I even wished them good luck, even if I believe some behaviour is what the Bible calls sin.

Nude pictures no, sexual act pictures, yes.

If someone was walking around your neighborhood nude, how would you react?
Check him out first :p And then probably call the cops because obviously in our current culture this would signify something is off kilter....like his mind.

Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?

Why? Why not?
Absolutely not. I can't imagine anyone would want to watch us to start with and I'd die of embarrassment if one of my kids or their friends or my parents saw it. :cover:

I personally wouldn't.

I might be shocked at first, but it wouldn't bother me. People have a right to be nude if they want, in my opinion.


Would you ever consider taping you and your lover having sex and putting it on the internet?

Why? Why not?

Probably not. My lover would disembowel me and strangle me with my intestines, which happens to be a major turn-off for me. :) Though I see nothing wrong with those who do--as long as they are willing to accept the consequences.

Not at all. (But what do you mean by "sex pictures?")

You can not draw a convincing dressed person, unless you understand the underlying structure.
This is why Leonardo knew so much of the human anatomy. He thought like this: If you can't convincingly draw a dressed person without knowing whats underneath, then it follows that you can't draw a nude person without knowing what's underneath, making it the shape it is

If someone was walking around your neighborhood nude, how would you react?

Heh. In THIS neighbourhood, I'd be confused as to what exactly a nude person was doing walking in the middle of nowhere.... But then, 7 mins from where I live there's a thermal spring so I probably could safely assume he'd just been skinny dipping in the warm stream. But then I'd think, "Why didn't he get dressed before he left the hot spring?" Then I'd remember the amounts of empty alcohol bottles we clean up there every morning and I'd understand why he was struggling to walk straight too.

I really don't care what people think of me, but I don't see the need to post it...
