Should nudity be allowed in movies?

[bawksie]

What are you opinions on nudity in the movies. Do you think boobs are okay? Man boobs? Vaginas? Pubic hair? Testicles? Penises?

I think any nudity is FINE. We are all naked under our clothes, we all have seen naked bodies. I think having nudity restricted makes it more taboo, but if it was more common it wouldn't be as big of a deal as people want it to be.

Let's just say it like this.

I don't think it's very realistic for a character in a film to get out of the bed in his boxers after a rough sex scene.

They're okay as long as they don't allow kids to watch it.

But kids need to learn that we're all the same. Sure, some buys may have 1-3 balls, and some female's lips may hang down 3", but we all have the same parts.

Personally, I'd prefer if they didn't limit nudity. As for the pubic hair portion, I don't think anyone want's to see that, but it comes with the package no pun intended)

Kids don't have to learn it from movies where they are having sex and what-not. Kids are allowed to see such things in science class.

[G.I.R.]

Neither I nor my brothers were able to see such things in any of our science classes. When I was in 9th grade health, we got to see penises infected with gonorrhea and various other STDs, but never did we see a normal, healthy human body. Plus, sex is an act of nature, not something perverse. Most children who have pets get to see their cats fucking at one point or another (I know I did)

If you want kids to learn about sex, sex organs etc; I think suggesting something that would make schools teach those stuffs more, would be more efficient. Instead of suggesting movies to not have age-limit and suggesting to show "more" than what they do.

Because to be honest, I don't think kids would learn and be mature about it when they see it in movies. And really, the only time they'll look at an opposite sex's body part without laughing or without malice, is whether it's a boring picture in science class, or when clothes are never existing.

[G.I.R.]

Increasing sex education in schools is a failing uphill battle with many conservative and religious groups fighting it. Many would rather have their children NOT learn about it than learn about it. Even if it means seeing nudity in a movie, at least they are exposed to it and not traumatized by their first sexual encounter.

Kids will almost certainly never be mature about sex related things unless we lived in a time like Brave New World where they are conditioned to believe sex is merely nothing. Even I laugh if I think some guy has an ugly dick. Ever seen Borat? The main difference between movies and educational settings concerning this is that in a movie, it's more real. It's not how it's supposed to be, but you can apply things in a movie more easily to your life than you can some video about what happens during ejaculation.

I guess an optional sex education would still be better compared to showing "more" stuffs in movies. It'll be annoying to watch movies when time comes that almost all movies have vaginas showing up in some part. Why don't we just leave the penises and such in porns lol.

Absolutely yes. Nudity should be allowed publicly in common life too.
