I remember this work, I also remember thinking, " Someone's going to get their nipples in a twist over this one." You almost come close to saying something that is almost against the TOS. Personally if I was the mod I would have cited bondage-- which would have meant the elimination of a lots more pictures from the gallery. It's a disturbing picture, I assume, meant to be disturbing. But we are disturbed precisely by what we do not know and cannot see. I don't think it breaks TOS, but it comes close or hints at things that might. Honestly, if I was a mod and got more than one complaint on this pic, I would have said this picture came too close on too many areas to breaking the TOS and adding them all up, it is better to be safe than sorry, let's take it down. I like the picture, the above is me putting on a conservative mask. I do suspect that same-sex intimacy-- combined with the fact that one person is tied up and consent is very ambiguous-- is what the real issue was. But I don't claim to read minds here and this is only my opinion. Emily
