Uncle Ed wrote:Ridiculous because Mormon culture is not old world casual nudist about the house. It is devoted to personal modesty even "around the children". So trying to create a venue where Mormon women can show their "imperfections" without judgment or shame is disingenuous to say the least. The asserted audience is the women themselves? Hardly. And the audience is not family or intimate housemates. The audience will be almost entirely older guys looking for new stuff to drool over. That is the reverse of what the website's stated intentions are. The balance of the audience will mostly be anti-Mormons looking at these women as freaks: what believing Mormon woman would take off the garments of her modesty and parade herself naked before the world? That is nonsense and sad.
And a woman who would do such a thing is flirting with the need to get positive affirmation from strangers, which is exactly where swingers go, always looking, sooner or later, for the next new sex partner who will build up their ego somehow....
I completely disagree with you on this. I think you have missed the whole point of this site, and the spirit that it was created in. I don't know what circles you travel in, but I don't know any old guys who are looking for pictures to drool over.
She has another website, http://www.AtMothersBreast.com wherein she shows women breastfeeding uncovered in very public places in the Vatican of Mormonism, SLC.
While, I think the instigator's "judgements" are seriously flawed..... the project itself I don't see any need for "discipline".
It looks like simple "art" to me..... They aren't really showing anything, thus not crossing the line.
If she's disciplined it won't be for the art, it will be for her judgements. But, such doesn't break any actual policy, so she might be talked to, but I doubt disciplined for it.

Thank you ldsfaqs for injecting a note of sober rationality into the thread. I really appreciate it.

And here I was misled into thinking you were a Rock Hudson kind of guy.
That's a mighty broad brush you are wielding there....
You mean like this brush:

That's not a brush, that's a large roller....

The producer of the Mormon missionary calendar wasn't displaying images of 'private parts' either. Just six packs and abs. But he was ex'd (If I recall correctly).

Are you serious? The Net is FOR pornography first above all other uses. If the skuttlebutt is true, of course. I see no reason to doubt it. So, most guys are into porn and most guys are older because they are living longer. Go figure. Any nekked woman is going to get any guy of any sensible age to look, period. The site is vapid and disingenuous in the extreme because the virtual world mirrors the real one too well. What are the creators thinking? Ah, that is the million dollar question....

That may be a stranger bit of ignorance than your hilarious assertion about the uses of digital media. But hey, no reason to doubt scuttlebutt!
