The short answer to your question, would be "No".

You mean the short answer is "yes" it is sexist discrimination.

Indeed, but it's not the fault of the forum.

A69 is very peen centric.

That is a wholly sexist statement in and of itself. Men's breast are a object of sexual desire not only for some women but some men as well.

The solution based on equality of course would be to not allow men's pics if women's are not allowed.

Sure it is. They make the rules, they are in charge of enforcing them. They can enforce them equally.

I think you missed the bit where we -don't- make the rules.  No one consults us when they go about setting pornography laws Heathen.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I doubt very much that AF is being sexist in this matter, as they are simply complying with laws and the nature of this Forum.

That being said, there are plenty of places you can go to see nipples of various sizes, shapes, and genders. It's an Atheism forum, not a Free The Nipples forum.

Even if they went as far to make the whole forum 18+ just to show topless women, topless underaged women would still be against the law and allowing them to be posted could get the forum to be shutdown. You want change? Protest it somewhere where you can actually get social constructs and laws changed, because complaining about it on a forum isn't going to change law.

Furthermore, I really don't see that many pictures of topless men floating around the boards anyway.
