Nudity, Is It Sexist In This Forum?

[bennyboy]

Dude I don't make the decisions. I'm just a single vote in a sea of mods. We took the action we felt was most appropriate considering the circumstances. I'm not going to keep arguing with you. Feel free to blame me. As far as I'm concerned you knowingly and intentionally broke the rules in order to prove a point and are now disingenuously blaming me to try to prove some other point. On both accounts I think you're being a jerk. And on neither account will I take the blame for your actions.

Yeah, I'm sure you were just a silent voice among millions.

Go look at the posts in question. Consider the fact that I have NEVER posted pictures like that before. Ask yourself, "Was there maybe a POINT in there somewhere? What was he trying to say?"

As for taking the blame-- I'm not asking you to. I took my ban, and waited it out like a man, and now I get to talk about how shitty it was. But what I'm asking is for you to take responsibility for YOUR behavior.

As for breaking the rules, they have now changed. I'm not so sure I DID break the rules, or why would they have needed to be changed? If you don't mind, I'd like to see a copy of the original rules, because I think you acted on the basis that I was posting illegal, immoral material, and not on the basis of forum rules.

But I CAN say that your content breaks the current rules. Can I assume that the offending breast content has now been removed from this thread?

As for the OP, let me say one last thing-- breasts are NOT illegal, NOT immoral, and the forum rules about them are arbitrary. There's no good reason to deny women the right to be depicted in their natural form, and to be comfortable or even proud of something that separates them, in an interesting and postive way, from men. I'd ask that you guys consider rather than banning nudity, of going the OTHER way-- opening up your minds, and your rules, to nature. Stop sexualizing the body, and start accepting that it is no more offensive than my dogs', and no less beautiful than any other part of the wonders of nature.

Okay, I'm out. I'll return to read whatever you guys say, but you'll get to have the last word. Peace, sister!
