Originally posted by resurgamlaura View Postbut the business that encourages young actresses to, like you say, Sky, think that doing that will act as career exposure I have little respect for. It should be a choice made by a person who has confidence and self-respect, who wants to do it for themselves, and not just to sell a series and because someone coerced them into it. And if they decide that it's not something they want to do, then good on them as well.
yeah like....remember working girl? how melanie griffith ran around in panties and bra. or pretty woman and julia roberts in her undies. ever seen her like that since?
I haven't. which kinda suggests to me that both of them could have been...encouraged to show some skin, and since they were new girls in thier first role, they did what the director told them to do...cause they needed the job and, like amanda in cotg, didn't speak up about a concern because tehy know that if tehy get labeled as a trouble maker they could lose any further work.
fortunately, all 3 of them were able to move on and create a career beyond the 'oh look, boobies' stage.
unfortunately, they're the minority. for every one of them there's a dozen other actresses that never get past that 'i gotta work so i gotta suck it up and do what the director tells me to' stage

anyway back to the on topic discussion. i think nudity is fine in tv and/or movies as long as its not just there for nudities sake. then i think its stupid, and just harms a film. just like graphic violence for the shock factor.
if AT were to do some nekkid scenes then i wouldn't care so long as it made sense. the fact that she's not comfortable doing it, and so would use a body double when a scene calls for some nekkidness, makes me respect her more for the fact that she will not do what she's clearly not comfortable with.

Originally posted by rderoch View PostMy thoughts exactly. If someone is comfortable enough to do nude scenes/pics, more power to them. I've never understoond the aversion to nudity/sexual scenes when people seem to have no problem watching someone get blown to bits. Which is REALLY more offensive?Originally posted by Frostfox View PostSexual morals are a complex issue linked to culture, age, religion and personal taste. I wouldn't impose my morals on others and I expect the same courtesy in return.
But, like you, I see that violence in society causes much less comment than, oh, Janet Jackson having a 'wardrobe malfunction' and that worries and saddens me.

And wow, brave girl! Though I think I may need a proper pic to visualize moss-fairy gardens in butter tubs. Have any on hand?

Originally posted by rolleson View PostYou do make sense. They are sexy shots but not, like, basic, page three nude shots. It is sexier because of what you're not seeing. To me anyway. Everyday I flick through the Sun, look at the topless girl on page three and in I never find it sexy. Those pics of Amanda in that pink..thing, have me going every time.
I'm not sure how I would feel actually. In a film or on tv, I wouldn't feel as strongly about it. I would certainly be disappointed if she did nude magazine shots I guess. I have no morals, I mean (lol) moral objection to nudity, I just, I don't care what some women do, but I just don't think it's anything any woman (or man I suppose) should
aspire to do. I guess it is a matter of class, but it's sometimes about keeping that last thing to yourself when so many people know everything else about you. Most of us all know everything about Amanda, except what she looks like underneath that flag. It's the last part of her.
And as much, as much as I would die to see Amanda Tapping naked (or die when I saw her naked) I would just, for me, I'm happy with what I have seen so far.

Hehe, oh dear. I quite like her hair, though it does look like she's wearing a muppet. She always looks lovely in photoshoots, but sometimes I think whoever picks the outfits for them must have a really bizarre fashion sense!

Quite pathetic, I know, but I've gotten used to being teased about it.
