Nudity flags should be set based on, well, ACTUAL NUDITY! .... which, duh, the picture showed. I swear, some people just seem intent on not getting it. Is she wearing any clothes? No. Then she's nude. That wasn't so difficult, was it? I didn't think so. You people seem to think the nudity flag is some kind of brand of prudish shame, to be avoided at all costs in the quest for individual expression (Add a few exclamation points if you want to make that phrase more effective.). Hate to disappoint you, but it ain't. It's just a signifier, nothing more. It lets the browser know in advance what to expect, nothing more. Folks around here have been using the nudity flag for as long as I've been a member here, and no one ever wrote in the threads, "Have you no shame! You used the nudity flag!" Jesus, people, are things so boring out there that you're reduced to bitching when someone points out the model isn't wearing any clothes?
