The male naked body should never be seen on screen. True or false?

PeterGriffen

I bought Fast Times at Ridgemont High cos I heard that it was a cult classic. I wasn't that impressed. Anyway, after reading peoples comments on the imdb, one woman was very angry at the gratuitous female nudity in the movie and the fact that men never get their kit off in movies. I've always thought that this was because the naked female body is beautiful whereas the male naked body is droopy and hairy and dangly and is generally more functional than aesthetically pleasing. I'd like to know if there are many women out there who are fed up with not getting the chance to perv at naked men on screen as much as the male viewer gets to perv at naked women, or if, as has often been reported, they also find the male naked body unappealing to look at.

The worst in male nudity has to be Harvey Keitel in The Bad Lieutenant. Not even just a flash, he's staggering around for a while....and he's crying too. I wasnt too happy either when I seen it. :eek:

Anyway, yeah, nude dudes? Sure why not! But only if all nudity is done for sound artistic reasons and in the best possible taste (ala Anal Entry volumes #1 thru #500 for example.)

Well Phoebe Cates completely naked would have been a considerable improvement. Jennifer Jason Leigh is one of those actresses whom you can depend on to regularly get her kit off in her movies. I listened to the commentary on the naked sections of "Fast Times", and the director said she shot a full frontal male scene, but she was told to cut the scene because the dick is an "aggressive" appendage.

BTW, the Anal Entry series went rapidly downhill after volume 276. After that, there was very little character development and the dialogue got increasingly cheesy.

Putting a male naked body on a TV is disgusting tbh

Does the BBC stil go by the 'Mull Of Kintyre' ruling?

Áine Chambers > Jessica Alba > naked man.

simu

Hey, folks!

The typical nude woman seen on film is as far from the average woman as Áine Chambers is from that aoul wannabe Jessica Alba.

So, twould be the same with men noode on film.

Thinking caps only €o.l7 at leedle all this week.

Jais, sounds like someone is gunning to write the Penis Monologues.

Wow.What a surprise that a fair few men said that women's bodys are more aesthetically appealing...I never would have guessed...

Yes, yes, us women, we just shut our eyes and think of our country when men get undressed. Its awful, awful such a cruel punishment to put a naken man in front of me.No! NOoooooooooooooooooooo

Also I think men dont want more naked men in the media because they will then be subjected more pressure to look good.

The world is ruled by heterosexual men, therefore most movies show pretty naked women. Surely thats obviously the reason?

I find the naked male form very aesthetically pleasing - it does bug me that the female form is shown more.

I thought so too.... From an aesthetic point of view, of course...

And of course while we're at it, let's get rid of fat and old chicks from our screens. Welcome to the logic behind American TV.

Not really. Women's bodies are inherently more beautiful. But that said, if women are naked in a film the men should be as well.
