    I'm a male and can find muscular male bodies pleasing to the eye, not in a sexual way, I just admire the shapes of the muscles and like trying to look like that by going to the gym.

    You're not shocking me, I'm just asking where the line is between art and erotic material, if there's a line at all.

    Like it would be ok for someone to be studying the statue of David for college projects while on a bus but it wouldn't be ok for a film student to be watching one night in Paris.

    Personally, I wouldn't have an issue with either. But I do recognise that society does... and I wish it hadn't.
    I never understood what some people find so disturbing and harmful in nudity and eroticism. :(

    Gawd, what's wrong with you? Hairy men are the best! :pac:

    Within reason. Keep it all trimmed and no problem. Complete hairlessness looks stupid on a guy.

    Do you think this could be cultural influence from the US? Or vice versa?

    I'd jump and say it's the fault of the English, but in truth, I have no idea.

    I sense a thread on which is the best colour, but there's no need, Olive Green is the correct answer. ;)

    Good old catholic Ireland says its dirty and the work of the devil. Personally, I think the devil is awesome if that's the case.

    You couldn't be more wrong, it's obviously a deep, rich, velvety purple.

    I don't know, Austria and Southern Germany would give Ireland a run for the money when it comes to being good Catholics... but for some reason, that never meant you couldn't be naked in a Sauna, or when sunbathing by the lake.

    Heard a story recently and can't remember where but a couple had been married for over 50 years and had a few kids yet he'd never seen his wife naked. Sex was always lights out and fathers were never at a birth.

    Literally anything sexual was considered wrong over here. What a disgusting outlook.

    That's actually really sad. I don't know why, but there is a lot of loneliness in that. A lot of unnecessary restrictions and unhappiness. :(

    I'd go and check it out. It wouldn't be sexual, they're just naked guys, so I wouldn't be eyeing up or just focused on the cawk.

    A man's body just has more strength and power, so it's more interesting to me and different in comparison to women that often get a heavy emphasis on femininity and fragility in art.

    "Naked male proof reader"

    Is this your way of undercutting the soliciting laws?

    Sure if you're paying well, I've done worse in my life :p

    TLDR: Thousands of people are flocking to a museum to see hundreds of photos of naked men.

    So if it was a museum full of images of naked women would it be art or pervy?

    With hundreds of naked women already on the internet? it would be a waste of time if it were pervy.

    Also, why do people autoamtically associate nudity with sex? Are we talking pornography here?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Heh, now there's a new entry for the bucket list.
    I had already ticked "sex in a museum", but "masturbating in an art gallery" is a good one, too.
