The problem is not that double standards exist--they're everywhere. All of us at some point buy into them--more prisons but not in my backyard, no this or that unless it benefits our business, our candidate, our interests etc. Unfortunately, no one is ever willing to come out and admit it. Now perhaps the 90 products listed under "bondage" in the RMP merely reflect contemporary family recreational practices. Likewise the numerous peni and vagani amongst the 128 "genital" referenced products are probably Parents Magazine endorsed as well. Surely, the dire warning included with one product: "WARNING LINKS BELOW CONTAIN IMAGES THAT ARE INTENDED FOR THOSE 18 OR OVER THESE PICTURES CONTAIN VIVID PICTURES OF GENITALS AND SHOULD NOT BE VIEWED BY THOSE WHO MIGHT BE OFFENDED" is a reference to a Sunday school picnic. Of course, those fully qualified links are non-clickable and we all know that the net-savvy kiddies are too dumb to copy and paste. Now I'm glad those products are there. If I had the money, I'd buy some of them. I'm glad that Renderosity hasn't caved in to those who'd like them removed. To pretend that this is anything but self-serving situational ethics though is really ridiculous. Yes, we all read and agreed to the TOS but that doesn't change the fact that it's application is arbitrary to say the least. As I see it, Renderosity has four choices. 1. Continue "business as usual" and accept the fact that members will continue to point out the hypocrisy of your practices. Respond by ignoring them or tossing the TOS back at them as if it applies equally to all. 2. Simply admit the fact that yes, family friendly doesn't apply in certain situations that we will decide for ourselves so live with it and stop complaining. 3. Ditch the bondage harnesses, gags, morphing genitals etc, and their associated revenue and strive to be truly "family friendly." 4. Revise the nudity tag or add a "MA" mature audience tag and mandate its use for these and similar items. Vicky gagged or trussed up like a Thanksgiving turkey is probably no more what most folks want their kids to see than Vicky in a menage a trois with Mike and the Freak. My personal preferences in order are 4, 2, 1, 3. Now the BoSox won the World Series and John Kerry may be elected President but I rate the chances of anything other then number 1 being implemented right along with Hell freezing over.
