What do you think of child nudity in films?

NO. Just no.

😎

Interesting question Mr. Allaby.

Since you have no problem calling me a racist, I'm just gonna go out and call you a pervert.

Since this post has been bumped...

I agree that nudity is natural and that there are too many places which are too uptight about it. Living in places where nudity was normal, and no one batted an eye if you were naked on a beach because everyone was, was liberating for me in my teens and I've felt that way ever since. I belong to a naturalist club where I live. We aren't a community, as live naked, but we have nude swims, nude bike rides, nude scuba classes, nude nights at the art gallery...that sort of thing. These are all ages events, and the community is really strict because they are all ages. There is absolutely nothing sexual about these events. I mean once you are used to being around naked people, there really isn't any allure to the naked body anymore.

That being said, because this society is so uptight, and there is such a misconception about what pedophilia really is (a 20 year old dating a 17 year old is not a pedophile) I think it probably best that they leave child nudity out of films. There is the chance of ulterior motives, and then there is a chance that the child may comeback and try to sue later. (justifiable or not). Until society is okay with the human body, and doesn't need to sexualize every part of it, why create the shit storm?

Its a reflection of how unhealthy our society is, in the US, that this is such a contentious issue.

Under present circumstances, given legal hazards, you'd be nuts to risk showing a 2 year old's cute little hiney in a parent-child bath scene.

Producer Steve Allaby enjoys child nudity.

NOPE.

Maybe this will help you to put the post into context:

The Overton Window is the range of policies politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time. Political commentator Joshua Treviño has postulated that the six degrees of acceptance of public ideas are roughly:

Unthinkable (Taboo): Discussing an area that is an absolute taboo (for example, pedophilia), after that the topic is no longer taboo.

Radical: Extreme radical circles are starting to talk about the issue as a possibility in certain situations.

Acceptable: Give the topic a laundered name or present the topic in an "innocent" way.

Sensible: Social activists begin to justify pedophilia with rational arguments.

Popular: The topic is starting to appear in popular culture (we this is a lot in Hollywood)

Policy: Lobby groups join together and start promoting processes that will regulate the issue in law


Some people are looking for confirmation to get legitimacy to act. Please to not encourage this.
