Not only are there not just the two sides there are not just the two points of view. Most who like to argue it only argue as if there were just the two sides but the fact is they just can't be bothered to listen to the other view or what is actually being said.
Renderosity has a nudity filter that should work just fine if people would respect it. It's not something new so the fact that this subject comes up so frequently is kind of astounding. I've yet to see anyone go to the forums at Renderotica and have this debate. Why? Because you know going in that it's all about the nudity. Renderosity is much, much more diverse and for some it's not about nudity. And here we have a choice. The filter doesn't affect the viewing of this site unless you change your settings. And anyone who has a problem with the way someone else views this site, (whether the filter is being used for their eyes only) has more than a few problems.

What I'm sick to death of is the assumptions that are always thown around in these discussions. Just because someone uses the filter or is in favor of the filter does not make them a "puritan" or "prude" or any one of the labels others enjoy using without entertaining the facts. I have yet to see someone actually say that they are offended by nudity or that this site should ban nudity or some such nonsense. But to listen to these arguement you'd think that was exactly the exchange. All I've seen is people who want a choice in when to view it. They want to be able to visit this site, at work for example, and not have to worry about the appropriateness of it. I for one enjoy nudity and Renderotica but realise that I can't view these things at work or with people in the room who may be offended. It's called respecting anothers sensibilities.

Like this, Dave: "Or its ok to kill an abortionist, but its wrong to have an abortion because its killing..what the hell kind of logic is this"
It's logic you are creating yourself. Who specifically says it's ok to kill an abortionist? That is not a "logic" that most sane people entertain. To create a black and white situation where one doesn't exist is the reason for the conflicts.
