I don't see the need for a "Mature" section. Turn off nudity in your profile and you won't see the nude images.

I do understand in part though, what chachi was saying in general about the images, althought I don't strongly agree with some of it. Consider however, a lot of the art here reflects the things that have consciously or unconsciously influenced many of us. Pinups, anime and hentai, covers of magazines like Heavy Metal, book covers from scifi and fantasy, movie posters and movies, certainly give a clue to why naked women and naked women with swords are so prevalant.

I have a couple of naked vicki's in my gallery, and one of them even has a sword, although she's not in a temple. In my Latex Lust series, I've tried to do tasteful erotica without thrusting "tits" in your face, but when I feel it's important to the image, I'm not going to let a concern about nudity hamper the creative process.

I suppose there is a certain amount of nudity that happens because it can take a lot of work for some people to properly dress a figure and have it look good. I also imagine a portion of the images are naked women because some people find it titilating to post them. On the other hand, I believe most people are making an honest effort to be creative with the tools. Since Poser allows people that have few ways to be creative become artists for the first time, and since most accessories and figures purchased are based on what's popular, it's only natural that there will be a certain "sameness" in the galleries.

Instead of complaining about it, one thing we can do to help is to make comments that say more than "oooo nice". If you notice "zombie" eyes, leave a comment about it and include a tip on how to change it. If you see a pose that's stiff and unrealistic, and you know how to make it look fluid and natural, leave a comment to say so.

One of the things I like about deviantArt is that they allow you to tell viewers whether you just want a comment or a critique. You can set Critique preferences for individual images ranging from not allowing critiques at all, to comments without critiques, to asking for intense advanced critiques about your work. Perhaps that might be a good system for this site to consider that might alleviate the "comment fear" that happens because you can never tell how "sensitive" someone will be about a comment you leave.

It's all fun and games...
