There's a bit of a bun fight going on with the Halloween contest and we need a clear ruling on what is considered nudity. Ok we’ve be told that all figures have to be covered up. Regardless if they have genitals or not, this would cut out a lot of entries. These are the rules

 

From the guidelines:
*Any fleshy beast that has “human attributes” or is a "humanoid-type figure" must follow the above Male and Female coverage guidelines. {which states: *Male genital region must be totally covered - with an opaque material}  

 

Ok clear this one up first, “any fleshy beast that has “human attributes”

What are human attributes? if this means genitals than characters that don’t have genitals the rule is not applicable

 

Male genital region must be totally covered - with an *opaque material

If there are no genitals than how do we tell where the genital region is?

Odiously we know where human ones are, but for made up character it could be their head for all we know.

 

If  we cover the region with a smoke or material that can’t be seen through is that ok

 

I have no trouble changing or covering up but don’t accept my entry in the first place if it doesn’t meet the rules it feels like the rules were changed halfway. So a bit of clarification would be appreciated.
