I have a question about people posting "nudity" in pictures. When someone posts a picture of a female model or singer with her butt hanging out and she has the "illusion of nudity," it's fine. However, when someone posts pictures of a male model or singer, it's not. The "illusion of nudity," as Tyra Banks said, is when someone appears to be nude but really, they're not (by airbrushing or flesh tone thongs). Nothing shows (i.e. nipples), but we perceive the image of nudity. Why are there double standards for "nude" photos? "We must bring an end to all discrimination,
And make a better place for children throughout the world.
Why should they suffer from our battles?
They are our future.
They are our voice of tomorrow."LTJ, "Free The World" |

And you even said it yourself -- it's the illusion vs. reality which is the difference. You posted photos that show actual nudity. It doesn't matter whether it was male or female. |

In case anyone's unclear, to summarize: - No crack
- No nips
- No twig & berries
- No female equivalent of twig & berries

I get it now. To clear things up and recap on male/ female/others rear view nudity, the consensus is half a butt (aka ONE butt cheek, side view, like Christina Aguilera's) is OKAY.
However, a full butt (aka TWO butt cheeks, side-by-side, full view AND side view) is not okay.
Like Rachael Lampa sings in "Savior Song," "He did it. I get it. And now I’m caught up in it!"
Thanks for clearing that up! I will only post (one) cheek-y pix now! :)

What if it were a man posing the way Christina did in the photo? LOL!! Mineable, I think you should test your double standard theory and try that... but please give a warning if you do.
