This is a rather personal question that I believe each person needs to answer for themselves.
I have no problem morally with men or women looking at the human form. It's lovely, God created it with grace and power. It's a thing to admire.
However, for some people, looking at a nude form can cause carnal thoughts that can lead (not always) into temptation that they may not be able to deal with in a manner consistent with their beliefs
So, since you ask the question, are you asking in general or for yourself? If it's for yourself then I would have to say you are not currently at a place where you should through only you can truly answer that. So, ask yourself, are you ok with viewing the nude form of females without it taking you to a place you are not morally willing to go? If the answer is yes, the by all means, if the answer is no, then stay away from them.
Oh and for you quoting the bible - try to remember that before the original sin - everyone was nude. There is nothing wrong with the body God gave us. Rejoice in His creations.

The world says yes. God says no.
I say no, too. And that's after looking at nekkid pictures in my past...
Why? Well, because of what it did to me. Here, try this: if you have been viewing porn for a while then stop and just see how you feel--really feel about the change.
"Hey a little porn never hurt anybody, right? C'mon dude! Get a clue. A little porn is like a little heroin. It's gonna jack you up one way or the other. I know this may be a surprise to some of you, but you can't have your cake and eat it too. You have got to decide what type of person you are going to be."

What does "single male" have to do with anything?
Pictures of nude women (and men) have been viewed by millions of people over the years. Some of them hang in the finest art galleries.

I assume you are looking at these pictures with lust? Lusting in the heart is the same as adultery, according to the bible, Matthew 5:28 "But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart." That's a sin, according to Commandment #7 (Exodus 20:14) "you shall not commit adultery. Good news, though, you can repent and God will forgive you.

God cares more about what you do with the REAL THING.
Every woman is someone's daughter. One day you may have a daughter. How do you want men to treat her and how do you want her to treat herself?!
Do you want a wife that has been passed from man to man.
One woman I talked with got Herpes from the man who is her husband!
You get a choice in a spouce, but not in a child. You get what you get in a child. Do we set our children aside? Do we divorce them?
Most live with them for life in a state of love, especially women (the mothers)!
Why is it men and women fall out of love. How can that be?
Maybe they need to think beyond the passion and the lust and pick someone who'll make a good partner for life, then live with the sex and the body that comes with them.
And it's doubtful if you or most men will get any woman who looks like those who pose professionally naked! Those are reserved for the Tom Cruise and Billy Bob Thornton's of the world. Common people get common people. They don't get "gods" and "goddesses!"
And "gods" and "goddess" don't take out trash, don't vacuum floors, don't do dishes and don't cook meals. They expect someone to peel their grapes!

I say look away. The human form is beautiful and God created those feelings within you that go along with looking at nude women, so I say, enjoy it. Have no shame nor fear in doing so.

The answer is NO, I know its not the answer you were looking for but the lord wants you to keep your mind pure. There are some great books out there for topics like this. " Every Man's Battle" or "Every Young Man's Battle" you can find them at your local christian book store. It might be good for you to join a men's bible study at your church or talk to a pastor about his opinion. He can help out with your questions too. God Bless you and i hope that you over come your battle. pray about it.

i suggest u quit looking at pictures and go find urself a wife. like it or not it has been shown that pornography has a definite connection with mental illness and horrific crimes...and like the woman said up there, to look on a woman to lust after her is the same as commiting the act.

No. If a man looks upon a woman with lust in his heart, he has committed adultery with her in his heart. This is in matthew 5. Even if you are single, you are cheating on your future wife, dishonoring the woman you're looking at and her future husband, and you're dishonoring the Lord.

Why not? I mean I'm sure you could find a religious group that would tell you its not good. Magazines like Playboy have been around for decades. I see no harm in it. My sons looked and they are upstanding citizens. God created the body so can it be bad?
