This reminds me of ad from a few years ago when I was in an Ad Agency, Fair play to the Creative Director who managed to convince THIRTY SIX of her own staff to pose nude for and ad for their own company!
I wonder just how much free drinks were imbibed before the shoot.
It did make a brilliant double page spread though...

i think the first two would be kind of odd, and the last two i dont have, as my brother is younger.

Mmmmmmm.... squidgy bits...
OK back to reality, I think it's a shame that a shot including a non-erect penis would still be unacceptable/ pornographic. Very prudish.

I don't consider myself a prude, and I'm all for artistic nudes of both genders, but the problem with male 'squidgy parts' is the often simply look silly IMHO.
Maybe it's a blokes perspective on the thing (sic) and I've seen a lot of male nude shots that are really good, but many that include the dangly bits don't look right. Possibly because even the most taught and toned fella has, well, spare skin in that area?
Dunno, my 2c worth... |

As far as I am concerned showing or not is just fine. I have had my body, and been married, long enough to be well past the cringe or drool stages the society has tried to instill in me.

But it does make me wonder why the restriction is there in the first place. Sure there would be the ocasional tasteless photo, but that could be dealt with quickly enough to not be an issue. It could also be an attempt to reduce the porn-surfer traffic, but the porn-surfers would soon grow tired of the lack of anything that could be considered porn (or nearly anything, anyway). There is always the possibility of legal issues, but if that was the case wouldn't a lawyer have included it in the TOS? The 'site' is already covered by the inclusion of 'You understand that by using the Website, you may be exposed to content that is offensive, indecent or objectionable.' in the TOS.
Does anyone know why the squidgy bits are explicitly excluded? I have wondered in the past, but this challenge has brought home again just how little sense it makes to me. Am I just missing something?

Aw, people, don't be scared, just do a self portrait. It elements the awkwardness of asking someone else and maybe you'll get some online props for your hot bod :D:D:D

I can understand the reasons for excluding depictions of a penis or vagina, but it is still somewhat unfortunate. As many have noted, the vast majority of the first nude challenge (and of nude photography in general) features female models. Some people have complained about that, and I think it'd be great to see more equal representation between the sexes.
However, with the rules as they are, shooting a male nude without including prohibited body parts is immensely more difficult than shooting a female nude. Of those male nudes that are shot, they are restricted to fewer available poses and angles as well.
In other words, regardless of historical or social expectations or the gender make-up of this site, the site rules alone assure an extremely lopsided collection of entries into the nude challenge.
