There is free speech; and then there is tact and manners.

Playboy centrefolds on a devel list are not what I call manners, nor do 
I consider that ironic, given my tag line.

A man may certainly say what he likes - but manners maketh the man.

QED?

I'm sorry Miriam, but claiming those photos were anything even remotely
close to Playboy centerfolds is simply a drastic distortion.  Those photos
were tastefully done, and are certainly *much* less revealing than many of
the photos on the cover of Cosmo' and such that are sitting at every grocery
store checkout counter.  No portions of the woman's breasts or any other
private parts were revealed, nor were the clothes at all see-through, nor
did they particularly show revealing contours of anything underneath.  Yes,
the V cut is a little low, but it doesn't show *anything*.  It seems to me
that you are being *way* overly sensitive.

 That does not mean that it is pleasant to have to look at.
 
 If you want to get your kicks out of pornography, kindly keep it to your

 I could give you several other reasons why 'not even nu' photography is

Oh please. The images in question are so not pornography. You could see
people dressed like that in G rated Disney films. 

This is a mailing list about GIMP development. GIMP is about all sorts
of images. Prudish lectures about images have nothing to do with GIMP
development. If that's all you can contribute, you don't really belong
on this list.

As far as I'm concerned, even images with nudity are fine here, so long
as there's some artistic merit. Giving URLs to images instead of
attaching them is preferred however.

This is the final word on this subject. I don't want to see any more
posts from you, Miriam, regarding this.

Miriam, I'm not in a mood to argue about thresholds of sensitivity,
especially when it comes to portrait photography.

If you are not the only woman in this list, then I'd like to hear from
others, possibly offlist, because I would like to encourage
development of GIMP, not development of flamewars. Until then I will
have to live with the fact that you are trying to talk for people who
haven't granted you the right to do so ;)
