It is the people who have sexual content, not the pictures. All normal healthy people are sexual, and porn has always been a huge part of art and the Internet. . Nudists need to get real and practice body acceptance.
Yes. There is no such thing as a virgin mother. Respecting our mother includes respecting her normal human sexuality that is how she became our mother.
In the 1920s Alfred Arthur Allen was photographing nude women in California. He would mail pamphlets for figure studies around the nation. A group in Ohio would order his materials and then charge him with sending indecent materials through the US postal service. At his first trial he was found innocent as the nudes were in sylvan settings. At his second trial he was found innocent as the nudes were in the bathroom. At his third trial he was found innocent as the nudes were in the bedroom and lightly clothed. At his fourth trial he was found innocent as the nudes were in groups touching each other albeit in Greek type settings. At his fifth trial he was found guiltier as the nudes were wearing high heels and it was perceived that such attire was not natural but was worn to accent the calfs and thrust the hips forward. He was fined and sentenced to serve jail time. Using this 100 year-old example the photo in question would not have been able to be mailed due to her wearing high heels. As the old saying goes "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." As the Federal Meese Commission Report summarized - "I know pornography when I see it", which is not helpful at all. We have been dealing with this matter for over a century now. In frustration with you, sincerely.
I stand corrected. Supreme Court Justice Potter J. Steward in 1964 is the person who said he could not define pornography but "I know it when I see it." In 1986 when Attorney General Edwin Meese released his 1,900 page report on pornography, he included Justice Steward's quote. We are still at the fact that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and there are no tried and true definitions of art or pornography. Thanks for the nudge to clarify the source of the often used quote.
I first learned of nudism after finding my fathers old magazines stored in a shed behind our garage. In this stack of magazines, were Hot Rod magazines, Slot Car racing magazines, Go-Cart Racing magazines, other racing magazines and newspapers, Playboys, Penthouse, and even early Hustler magazines and finally Nudist magazines. Even as a young "man" I could tell the difference in nudism and porn. Would I call what I saw in Playboy porn? No, I saw the beauty of nude woman. Penthouse? Well that pushed the limit, but back then, still not porn. (That changed over the years I believe.) Hustler? Well, yeah, that's porn. Then of course the nudist magazines. Did I see ladies wearing heals in them? Yes I did. Did that make it obscene or porn? No. It was nude ladies wearing shoes. Guys wore shoes sometime too. In fact they wore some clothing from time to time. As a nudist now, I understand why that happens, trust me.
People can and some will see "erotic" in just about all photos now. Some can and will see the example pic as erotic, some will not. While I wouldn't consider it erotic, or porn, I wouldn't call it nudism either. But there is a another category. Art. To me this is a Beautiful Art photo.
I cannot believe how distant some people are from understanding nudity and sexuality… Even in comics, some folks define "porn" a naked panel on a page and judge artists who depict sex scenes as into "porn" and full stop, no access to art or comic-art. I'm too old to fight, so I remained silent and wandered away, thinking of "low-level" comic artists like Jordi Bernet, Andrea Pazienza, Masamune Shirow, Milo Manara... Clearly these comic artists are definitely untalented and created just… porn! Mah… No need to bother the eternal rest of Gustav, Egon & Co. I think…
This isn't pornography because it's just someone naked/nude. If people don't like it they should not be looking at it. When people see a nude photo of someone or see someone nude in public they start to feel disgusted or want to take photos/videos of someone which they shouldn't unless they have permission/consent. For example, in some states, women are allowed to be topless/shirtless in public just like men but people find it inappropriate because they say kids shouldn't be seeing breasts.
In the US, we're so stunted by our near-total lack of sex education that just seeing someone naked brings out an array of unhealthy emotions, and the performative nature of social media makes belching out hateful bullshit very gratifying.
I was struck by this quote, "That woman is somebody’s mother. Women deserve more respect." Of course ALL mothers only became mothers by being sexual. Of course mothers deserve respect, and shaming mothers for being sexual is disrespecting all mothers. There is no such thing as a virgin mother.
There is way too much anti-sex attitude among "body acceptance" nudists. Pretending that normal human sexuality somehow vanishes when we take off our clothes and see each other's bodies is ridiculous. We all exist only because our mothers and fathers were sexual people who enjoyed a sex life together. To respect our mother and father is to respect their sexuality that created us. To respect ourselves we must respect our own sexuality that creates our children. And we must respect our children's sexuality that creates our grandchildren. Pretending that nudists are somehow asexual is disrespecting us all. We are a VERY sexual species.

Maybe the lady wants to be a mother and is waiting for hubby to come home and make it happen.
You’re still sexualizing the image. Sometimes (oftentimes) it simply feels good to not be bound by clothing. 🤷🏻♀️

Pornography is something with sexual content. Pictures of human form not doing anything sexual is not pornography.
Sorry to those that are jealous or have unreasonable expectations. Simply find another content.

"I know pornography when I see it" is not from the Meese Commission, it's from a Supreme Court opinion authored, as memory serves, by Justice Brennon.

“Disgusting!” 😂😂😂

The body is not pornographic. The mind is.

In the United States we are more prone to promoting violence as okay versus sex. I'm totally guilty of it.
My young kids have watched Marvel movies and R rated scary movies. But, the moment someone kisses, I cover their eyes. 🫣
Anyhow, great photography. Are they your images or where do you get them? Sorry, you may have said so already but I just subscribed today. Thanks!
Not my images, I collect art & photography I find in books or on the internet & share them here. Thanks for the follow & for your insights 🕊️
