You said it.

This is not middleschool, most of us here are mature people, and we are all bound to be exposed to this kind of things sooner or later, if not here anywere else.

Dreamlover13, please don't turn this into a sexist war. I do believe that I myself have said that I wouldn't care if it was a male or a female in the image. It's the concept that matters here. I don't mean any disrespect, but if you're going to turn this into an issue of sexism, please don't bother. Discrimination isn't something any of us want here. If you're offended, keep it civil.

[Edit]
Note: We have a thread on genders, and topics like that, if you DO wish to talk about this issue in that context I'd appreciate it if it were taken to that thread.

You can talk about it here at Let's talk about gender...

Well, looks like I have to share my thoughts on this as well.

In my point of view, a nude photo can be artistic, if done right.

Take a look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Thinker

It is a statue of a man, and he's naked. But it is still considered art.

So, in my opinion, nude photos are ok, as long as there is no form of sexual content involved.

One more thing, I do not, under any circumstances, DO NOT condone sex and violence. This isn't the place for that!

Anyway, mature content is alright, seeing that the majority of us are of legal age. But please, NO SEX AND VIOLENCE!

My 2 cents.

-ignores your "akado rapes riyu" bits in the one-sentence-story thread-

In all honesty, if you're trying to avoid offending people, SPOILER tags, and mandatory off-site linking with NFSW tags are the way to go.  As a heterosexual male with little-to-no shame, I don't particularly care what kind of content I view here, but given that there are people with more conservative views, it would probably be more prudent to listen to their opinions and not mine.

But you'd still consider that magazine porn, even if they were all like that (or at least most of the people I know would).

So they classify the magazine by the cover now? So I guess just about every pop culture magazine in the world is now considered pornographic is it? I see your point, but I also have to argue against it, especially because it's the material inside of the magazine, not the cover. Kind of funny how that old saying, "Don't judge a book by it's cover" actually makes sense here.

Well if you see a semi-naked girl giving a sexual pose, it kinda tends to hint that what you're going to see inside hte magazine isn't exactly appropriate for non-adults. There are exceptions, yes, but that's what it generally tends to be.

I wsh we could all still insult like Shakespeare--I'd call someone a saucy fellow or a naughty nave and it'd be completely insulting. I should name my future child something like that.

Actually, I'd say that quite often what's found inside, in today's society is either video games or cars.
Just because a woman is depicted on the cover, doesn't mean they're sprawled all over the inside also. But yes, of course there are many of those magazines as well.

Creeped you out? But there's nothing psychologically disturbing about it. o.o
