Just providing balance, Locker. Not unlike your images of the obese man and woman. Well, actually unlike that quite a bit, but there's nothing wrong with dialog(which is why I posted the link), is there?
Interesting to note that you chose an image of a woman which is a provocatively styled shot, and the male, balancing act, is not. Or aren't you aware that the female image you posted would be seen as sexually enticing to a cross section of people, and definitely money in the spank bank for the type who likes that?
And Philo, I think you really need to find some new material. We've all gotten the "joke" you've been making with that set of images. It's like you're at a party and keep telling the same knock, knock joke over and over....
And Dirtbag, just for clarity - I have never said liking booby pictures is "bad," I didn't see many of the images posted on that thread as "bad." My upset is over the intimidation/minimizing tactics deployed on anyone who doesn't see the aforementioned thread as the best thing since sliced bread that seem so prevalent in this thread.

It's actually not difficult to find, if one wanted to.

Well, Locker - I will not post an image. But I did Google "arrousing image of obese men " and then go through to the images version, and see one in the 3rd row of images. Not as well styled as your ladies image, but the intent is there nonetheless.
But, it was just something that I happened to think, when I saw your post. Not really THAT serious, especially in comparison to some of the other things which have come up in this thread.
And update(after the Elvis type image)- Locker, please don't minimize my input on this topic. While it may be very funny to some, and others are just goofing around because they are bored and unable to get out more(which I am guessing is why you post the way you do, as you have mentioned some health issues), I think I have been pretty clear that I don't think this is all a lark. To make fun of me, even in a light-hearted way(which I do believe is your intent), is actually inappropriate.

Yes, I misspelled. Luckily, Google has some built in AI and searched using the correct spelling.
If SOME are still having SERIOUS issues concerning stuff like this...
I SERIOUSLY suggest that THIS is NOT the place to deal with them...
I'm not dealing with "my" personal issues on this thread. I am well aware what they are, have been working on them since at least the age of 13, and have found it is a lifelong process.
I am providing a viewpoint in this thread that apparently makes some people here uncomfortable. I don't mean you specifically, Locker, but to post what I quoted above is an attempt to silence those speaking out. You do realize that, don't you? That sort of manipulation comes in many levels, from fairly innocuous to flat out mental abuse. It's probably not a style you would consciously want to take.
For what it's worth, I have received more than a few private correspondences on what I have been posting, and there is support for my words. Not everyone is as willing and able to stand up against a crowd, but it happens to be one of the unintended consequences which resulted from my having "serious issues."

I would hazard to say that most of us men, young and old and in between, never had to "figure out" how to appreciate the female form. It's a natural reaction for which our survival owes the pleasure. However, her earlier sentence touches on what I mentioned earlier - strong reactions usually denote a history of sorts, often untoward, so sensitivity is indicated. It's mostly about the involuntary associations that accrue to a person, place or thing which determines our views; and everyone's past is not a glorious sunset. That's why a seemingly benign thread about a body part can trigger a Gorilla Monsoon of guff and emotional arcing.

Largo...I know you and most men and many women too didn't need to learn to appreciate the female form. Finding pictures of boobies on the internet in order to be able to appreciate them is what I was saying folks have learned.
I'm not sensitive about men lusting after boobs. I'm sensitive about men lusting after children....which is what was reported by someone I trust (LuckyPink) to have been present.
Honestly, I don't play for the boob-loving team, so I hadn't been keeping tabs on the thread and had no idea what happened until all of DRAMAONTHEBOOBTHREAD new thread titles started appearing...and I admit curiosity got the best of me.

On "THE" thread I saw photos of women who looked young, on purpose.
That sh!t is creepy but, unfortunately, legal.
To me, a kink stops being a kink when it goes there-
the sexualizing of girls and the whole "barely legal" thing.
It's not porn but it is f*#king creepy and I can see where people would be offended and even angry.
I was happy with fully clothed women with amazing breasts of all shapes and sizes.
And boobs ain't even my kink!

A hypothetical question...
If a court could agree that a particular image suggests or invites taking
advantage of naivete'...the corrupting of innocence...or exploiting the trusting...
Should a model's 18 year certification validate and elevate the depiction above debauchery ??
