I know what you mean about leaving the UPC throwing you off balance. Sometimes having all the rules clearly defined truly is easier. In some respects. More complicated in others.
Sometimes it makes me feel handicapped. But yes, I was definately thrown off balance by this one.....and I'm not sure I can look at him the same. He automatically gets put into the "not safe" category....but then, I may cut off my nose to spite my face. On the flip side, I can't put this into the 'okay' category until I understand what I should really be thinking about this. I mean, I just don't think anybody should pose nude for any artistic epxressions. I mean is art really THAT important?? Why is the nude thing such a big deal in art? Can any artist enlighten me here? Or are art people just nuts? LOL!

You can still find some of my "work" online and at selected Christian book sellers.
The point is, you were DRESSED~

What difference would that make? Oh, wait. Different kind of modeling.

I will state for the record that I have never once thought of you as gay or having gay inclinations. I am a little offended that you would think I would think that and/or that, having thought it was cleared up on the thread we were speaking of, that you bring it up yet again, thinking I have some sort of problem based on allegations that I think/thought you have gay inclinations. I am pretty floored by the statements. But, hopefully this has things cleared up.
Well, actually it doesn't. In the above quote you say:
Quote:
"Sorry, PO, I guess I'm not sure what your point is or why a male [masseuse]would be your preference, but I trust that it is just that!"
The part in bold is showing that you are still imposing a doubt. So, no, it didn't really clear anything up. But, I'm good. Just wanted to point that out.
