    i like these anti pedo-bots you speak of, but what about the knives that they use? they will touch the penis in the opp, so the scaple is a pervert.

    maybe we should use laser cutting tech? im not sure if lasers can be perverts i will have to do some research.

    peace

    I assure you that lasers (which are just beams of photons) can indeed be perverts. They must be watched carefully. The images some photons convey to unsuspecting innocent eyes, that happen to be in their way as they are emitted from certain magazines and web pages, are appallingly perverted.

    so we cant trust lasers either then. what about that new tech the high pressure water cutting machine?


    i know water is a pervert in mass spread out form, like the way water molests women in the swimming pool, with its dirty hands all over every part of them. thats rape in my opinion because water can seep into the vagina and thats intercourse without consent, and its child molesting also,

    so i guess not even water cutting is allowed, so what can we do everything is a pervert.


    peace.

    Well guys and gals, I am glad we were able to be able to discuss this in a mature and civilized manner despite the rough start. By no means is this the end of this thread so please feel free to continue the conversation. I just thought I'd stop by and let you all know my appreciation for your participation.

    I have taken several photos and films of my kids naked. There is nothing sexual about them. Most of them are when they have just been taken out of the bath and are lying on their towels giggling like little lunatics

    There is a perception in society that the naked form is automatically sexual. It is not. I don't view a 2 year old doing a nudie run through the house as being sexual. Children like being naked. If I let my 21 month old, he would be naked all the time. As it is we have to chase him through the house to get him dressed after his bath.

    Nude photography of children is not perverted if it is done innocently and is not sexually orientated. However some who view these images are perverted.

    For example, Anne Geddes made a lot of money taking photos of babies in the nude. I doubt the average person would view them as being in any way pornographic.http://www.annegeddes.com/home/galleries/privateCollection/privateCollection2.aspx

    Well yes, and 'some' people will find innocuous pictures of children arousing. Are we comfortable providing them with such material?

    Not that I agree that it's possible to have innocuous naked pictures of someone elses children in the first place of course.

    I think simply it's best to err on the side of caution. Artists without talent need controversy. Talented artists should be able to make us sit up and think
    without brushing against the limits of common decency.

    my grandmother was refused collection of her photos of my cousins in the bath after they were developed, years back.

    the police were called and she was questioned over child pornogoraphy. this was infront of tens of customers in london, and everyone thought she was a pedo. and she never even recieved so much as a "sorry".


    peace.

    Everyone knows that English have serious problems regarding sex. They forced that value in India, Japan etc. And now, America is heading that way.

    BTW, taking photograpghs of nude children in India is not a problem as long as it is not used by sexual deviants. Then they could be stoned to death....ouch...

    it has to do with the inversion of the us out look toward nudityand sex compared to violence and the rest of the idustrial world most coutries find american tolerance to violence appaling and our fear of sex and nudity repressed.

    yeah she was really upset by it, she came home crying and could never go back there because of the shame.

    i understand that people have to check about child porn and stuff, but they handled it so wrong, we are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty, but she was basicaly branded a pedo before they even asked her questions to find out what was going on,


    and to do it infront of all those other customers was very bad of them in my opinion,


    peace.

    actualy england is not as bad as the US about this type of thing. in the usa your not even allowed to show naked people during regular hours, in the uk any bodypart is allowed to be shown aslong as its scientific or educational,

    i think erect penis and the clit are only parts not allowed to be shown at regular hours before 9 pm,

    england and the usa are very bad when it comes to sexual conduct on television though, we allow violence, war killing fighting and all types of brutal behaviour, even on childrens cartoon shows, but when it comes to natural sex or bad language, we have to hide that from the innocent eyes of the populous,


    we have screwed up ethics in this day and age. we are heading for the banishment of everything natural with the human species, no breast feeding, no being naked, no sex, whats next?

    peace.
