Ok Serious Question

[JONNO_CELEBS]

Hmmm.........so even tho I posed in an artistic way, it caused sexual arousment so it's pornographic?.......See this is a stalemate question but the reason I asked it is because I was reading (yes I can read) my ftp's terms, it says "No Pornographic material", and it just made me think what they class as pornographic

if you use the boards definition of 'sexual nature' - that would mean no nuditity

As far as the 'Mull of Kintyre' rule is concerned, the only time it is hard is early in a frosty morning, or all during the winter. Actually I'm glad it is pointing the other way, if not, when it did get hard it would end up in an awkward position for me.

Your pose is irrelevant.... it's the intention you had when you created/posted the image that matters - so far as whether or not it's truly pornographic.

That's not to say that non-pornographic pictures are acceptible in all places either though.... I believe the KLB rule make reference to nudity not just pronography.

So what you guys are saying is all nudity is porn in some way, just some is more acceptable than others, so what about my ftp terms, it says...............Ah, I just went to find it and it actually says no "Nudity" too

Pintless thread, you may now trash it

That's not what I said at all Jonno.

Its impossible to define "pornographic material" for each individual, as perverts and "normal" people (like .......uhmmm - well, me) have differing tastes, so a common mean has been agreed upon. I think all agree that naked pictures showing the genetalia would be considered porno IF used to arouse. This is where those berks who practice nudism can get away with showing fucking disgusting pics of their kids on the beach and then arguing that its ART or some other fucking excuse!

Like i said - its individual - now i'm mad again.........

Its my own fault......

That I agree with, it's never art to show pictures of youngsters unclothed, nor to take pictures like that.

But I guess what it really comes down to in the end is if a picture of a man/woman is taken to please others and cause sexual arousment (like Titey Said) it could be classed as porn, whereas a tastful pose could be considered art, so with my pics they were taken to please others (stfu Titey, they were pleased ) they were designed to arouse and be kept hidden (stfu up Titey, that was'nt my fault ) but if they were taken to be hung on a wall in a house then they would be art...............right

Ok now I'm confused

Where are you going to draw the line? If you do not show children in the nude, for artistic reasons, then in about a hundred years you are going to have people saying, " what kind of society was that?". Are we going to have our lives ruled by paedophiles? Just look at how it is now affecting our everyday events:-

You a not allowed to film your child taking part in the school, play or nativity.

You are not allowed to film your boy playing school football. In some cases not even allowed to watch them!

If you are in a situation where a child is injured, you are frightened to comfort that child in case it is misconstrued.

If a child smiles at you, you are frightened to smile back.

Children are frightened of every grown up. That in itself is the most frightening thing of all! Because that is their best defence, runnning to another grown up.

I could go on ad infinitum. The point I am trying to make is, take the problem out of society, do not let the problem rule society.
