Quote - connie....if a humanoid doesn't have a dick and wears no clothes it's a naked humanoid. if i had it blew off in the war and walked the streets naked, people may say oooh liz look at that guy with no dick lol but when asked if i were naked or not they would certainly say...he's naked...though he hasn't got a thingy hehe
obviously the mods dont agree with me cos they didn't put a nudity tag on it lmao

Well, this whole thread is under multiple advisories...

I like your analogy!!!!!
So, considered I don't have 'thingie' if I shaved my pubes kept my legs together,  put my fingertips over my nipples, and stuck couple of temporary tatoos on myself,  I'd no longer be nude... or just dip myself into a tub of tie-dye... LOL
Maybe I should go to work like that on monday, see if people think I was 'nude'
Point being here is that an image doesn'thave to be borderline pornographic to be considered 'nude'.
Unfortunately, unlike video games and movies whom have a number of levels in their ratings, here we only have nude and not nude. So... Let's compare to a PG 13, a brief non sexual nudity may be considered ok for PG13. BUT, it's still nudity. So, even if your image may be suitable for pg13, it still may need nudity tag.  Doesn'thave to be nudity with sexual connotation. It's still nudity.
Perhps it is unfortunate that there isn'tamore refined system, but I think that in a current situation it would be completely impractical to have a multi-level nudity and violence advisories...

Sooo, nudity in itself isn't such a bad thing, but, it's also not socially acceptable in every situation. I gather that renderosity caters to a wide range of the audiences, which means, it's a good idea to play it safe.  Nudity tag isn't the same thing as a scarlet letter, ya know. Sure, the auto generated reminders are very curt and impersonal, and it may be an unpleasant experience getting one. Putting a nudity tag on your image isn't a bad thing, doesn't segregate you, nudity isn't a bad thing, and nudity doesn't mean something is bad or smutty. It's just a social courtesy towards other members of the community, to let them know that the content may not be appropriate everywere. A social courtesy that we agred to performing when we quickly glazed over the terms of service when we signed up. You know, once we click on agree, we indicated agreement regardless of whether we bothered to read the fine print or not.

I'm thinking about a word of wisdom or our youngen's ;)... If you're gonna make it a habit push the envelope, you need to learn to not let papercuts upset and discourage you. They come with the territory.
