This is probably the reason why I don't have a Facebook account...

... and why I'm thinking to delete my quite unused MySpace one.

read on Michael Breyette's blog: http://michaelbreyette.blogspot.com/2010/02/when-does-objection-to-nudity-become.html

Do you remember my post about the next exhibition of Paul Richmond and his Cheesecake Boys? Michael will be one of the gaylebrities that will model as Cheesecake Boys and he posted a funny picture on his Facebook fan page:



and yes, I'm reposting it not under the cut. I don't have anything against nudity, and people that frequent my Man Candy posts well know that, but if there is a full frontal nudity I put it under a cut. In this case, I will not, but not since I want to be daring, but since I don't find the above picture "scandalous". There is only an hint of cheeks, no butt crack, I even find it more thoughtful than sexy.

As I said in my comment on Michael's post, I don't like the majority of people on those media, so I'm not surprised that a woman, who was in the list of Michael's friends (!) asked for the picture to be removed... but that Facebook actually did it? They don't have a thinking mind? There is porn and there is art, and all right, sometime there is a subtle line between them, but not in the case above.

So I will state it here, profiting of Michael's disaventure: I will post pictures of naked men (or women if I like), but if it's a full frontal nude, I will put it under a cut. If not, I will post it as above. Friends, you will have to trust me and my judgement.

Sono tra quelli che si rifiutano di avere un Facebook account per svariati motivi. Ma mio fratello ce l'ha. Così spesso notiamo che chi ha il compito di moderatore o quel che è, non ha il tempo per poter controllare cosa effettivamente ha davanti. Qualcuno segnala e lui/lei toglie. Punto.
E se nessuno segnala, beh, restano gruppi come "A morte questo o quello" o simili.

Trovo questa foto di M. Breyette molto bella e sensuale, senza mostrare quasi nulla. E sottolineo il quasi nulla, perchè quella curva di sedere che si vede è meno di quello che vedo quotidianamente e a qualunque ora in televisione...

Si penso anche io che nessuno si sia fermato a riflettere prima di cancellare, ma facendo così danno "potere" agli omofobici che ci sono in giro.
