Halle Berry's done it, Sharon Stone, Marilyn Monroe. So many have done nude film roles, or done starred naked in Playboy. There are tons of sex tapes out there, and tons of nude pics out there, like the Vanessa Hudgens scandal. Do you think people should voluntarily show their nude bodies? Do you think women should be seen naked in Playboy? Most movies show a naked woman, not a naked man, and it seems to be so sexist. So sexist a woman has to show her skin to sell records, or movies, but a man doesn't have to be that attractive. So...do you think its right, smart, and good, for mothers, fathers, etc. to show themselves nude, whether it be porn, playboy, movies, magazines, etc.? Do you think its trashy? We shouldn't be ashamed of our bodies, but then again when people do nudity they are often looked down on, or looked at as giving it all away, so they aren't really anything. I feel a person's body is sacred, and shouldn't be seen all over the place, just for the person and their spouse.

its a good thing to think about especially since we are teaching our kids, to be leaders, and to have their own mind and acquire knowledge. anybody can take off their clothes and stand nude, or lounge around, and have sex with anybody nude. a person should know they are more than their skin. but its each person's body and skin. i think a lot of times we say we don't like to be compared to models who are airbrushed, but we buy the magazine covers. its like humanity suffers, AIDS, STDS, etc. are all on the increase, all due to this fascination with sex selling. no one practices abstitence anymore.

I have nothing wrong with teaching abstinence or even practicing it.
However, i think abstinence-only sex-ed classes is one of the worse ideas ever. Education is the key, and that includes that for drugs, etc. In places where they educate youth, there are less instances of abuse.
Otherwise, I agree with your sexism and double standard of beauty of genders, but not really about the sacredness of body. Body is only what society deems it as. We deem certain types of nudeness as trashy because that is society's values at that time.
There have been many societies in the past where nudity , or partial nudity have been culturally accepted and it is normal. I see no reason to follow society's ideas about sexuality - it's better to make up your own mind.

I feel it is more about what your doing with that body, than plain nudity itself, I just didn't like seeing Billy Bob Thorton in that scene with Halley Berry that was the most disgusting thing I have ever seen her do I lost alot fo respect for her due to the strong sexual content...The nudity doesnt bother me but its the sex scenes I can think of too many other well established actresses of different backgrounds besides black and latino that had to do that.
To compare it watch Miami Vice where this girl with Crokett's Character in there barely shows her body never showing her breasts unlike Jaime Fox and his girl which showed everything. It happens to me also of Latin and Black descent...sex objects. Of course many people don't recognize this aspect because they are male and it is not viewed as the same way as racial property.

I think it's trashy for them to show private parts of their body. Shorts and a tank top is fine, but I think by celebrities doing naked or porn, they set a horrible moral example for everyone else, especially teenagers.

I just feel annoyed. Like Christina Agulleria, in all her music videos, she is showing a whole bunch of skin.
I dont like having to see women showing too much of their body. I reckon that they shouldn't do that. You do have a point. Its not a good exercise, as its telling the children to do that too. role models.

None of it is necessary to the story being told. The old movies did it best by leaving that part out. I think we should go back to those kind of movies.

WAY too much... WAY WAY too much time is spent obsessing about skin
WAY WAY WAY!
(is my point getting across?)
It even works its way into religions... its AMAZING and sad.
Skin... everyone has it. There are really only two blueprints.
Nipples are NOT obscene!
If you think the sun is bad for your skin... wear a hat!
