Does male nudity count?

Not sure. If I were to extrapolate any sort of trend from contemporary nudity it's that female nudity is sexual and male nudity is comical. That's not to say that male nudity can't be sexual too. It's just that a guy running down the street with his bare ass is apparently hilarious, but I don't think I've ever seen female nudity shown frivolously like that. If female nudity is used in comedy it's because the woman is seducing someone, or a man walks in on her- generally something sexual in nature. It's never "haha she got caught with her pants down", which is apparently fine to do with men but not with women.
Edit: After fixing the video in the post above mine, I would just like to say: What the fuck did I just watch. I believe I've been proven wrong. However, if something like that ever made it onto Australian TV before 1am on SBS I'd eat my own ass.

I don't know if they think that, it seems more that they don't care.Gorfias said:
Why worry what minority care about, if they will pay for the same stuff the majority does?
People are going to watch movies about heterosexual white males, even if they don't fit that demographic themselves. The reverse doesn't seem to be as true. That's why you have bookstores with a "black fiction" section in the US.
Hell, look at Watchmen, That movie was about a big blue penis. Sure, there was a little bit about an alternative Cold War and retired superheroes and a mid-life crisis and a love scene or two, but those are utterly forgettable, it seems, because they are standard and to be expected. But a big blue penis...WTF?
Butts are allowed on Youtube, I saw breasts on a music video once (NIN possibly?), and Marilyn Manson's cancelled movie trailer... never seen a penis or vagina though, personally don't have a problem with nudity, but w/e.
OT: To clarify, I think it's an equal split between male and female nudity, but I see very little of either.

Well in my experience, female nudity is far more common than male nudity since female nudity carries with it a lower rating, take pornography for example, when a scene is all female, its considered 'softcore' but a s soon as a male is introduced, it becomes 'hardcore'. Softcore is more or less considered R-rated material whereas hardcore is NC-17.
As for that article, it's pretty much rubbish: It reinforces both an old stereotype and a more modern one. the first, as has been mentioned that women do not experience sexual arousal/desire. The second, the male fantasy that all women are at least somewhat bisexual.

Uh Oh, this comment nearly begs for a deconstruction of the Watchmen movie! But the hypothetical reason these guys don't care is because they're making programming from their perspective and not realizing others may not (don't) share that perspective.thaluikhain said:
