on the way to dinner tonight we ducked into a bookstore and found this awesome book half priced:
it's DIAN HANSON'S: THE HISTORY OF MEN'S MAGAZINES VOL 3 (1960s AT THE NEWSSTAND)
ther'es a whole series spaning 1900-1970s.
you can order them HERE
another really cool thing about my book is that it's in 3 different languages...yeah all in the same book. English, German and French. They show images from men's magazines from literally all over the world!
*thumbs up*

I figured that was a part she was already aware of, and was the source of her misgivings.
Chosing to focus on the other social-networking aspects, I thought I could provide a good balance of "positive" to override the negative feelings she had about the photographic content of the site.
And, you're correct, a lot of people do find this form of photographic expression offensive...and I didn't want to tiptoe on that belief. I respect that as much as you and I both respect every girl on this site for their contributions--through both picture and print. But, that is (although not the main reason but, contributory to) why all "risque" photos are behind login gifs and not presented anywhere other than the site.
I think there is a respective, relativist middle ground that can be acheived between these two beliefs by focusing on the other contributions that the site and it's members provides and limiting the ammount of "offensive" material that is displayed to the general public...it's unfortunate that we couldnt' acheive it.
I really do apreciate your advie.
Thanks so much.
