Pearl clutching? Me? You wanna see my post/comment history? Let me explain it like this. It's like in video games when female characters have booby armor and male characters wearing the same gear are fully covered.

Do I have a problem with the over sexualization of exclusively females? Yes. But only in the absence of over-sexualization of males. Would I have a problem with it if that same sexualization occurred with the males? No, in fact, that's my ideal world. Call it pearl clutching, but to me, it's simply being tired of sexist double standards.

Pearl clutching would be me going "wtf so many nude bodies! stop it!!" and not having an issue with anything else except the fact that a naked woman is on my screen, which is simply not the case and is a bad faith way to view the issue. I'm not asking for less female nudes. I'm asking for more male ones. Also, I'd simply just filter out nsfw. I appreciate NSFW content, just wish it were more equal.

To Tl;Dr:

>So, hey more naked men, that's great.

This is the point I’m always trying to make but no one in my life ever understands. I don’t care about nudity itself. It’s that it almost always exclusively female full nudity and we might get a male butt. If there’s going to be full female nudity, there should be full male nudity too. If there can’t be full male nudity, then there shouldn’t be full female nudity.

I’m not a prude by a long shot, but this opinion gets construed that way frequently.

Honestly there is no way there will ever be less female nudity. That fight will never win. The only way to make things equal is to increase male nudity, and then fight to stop exploitative nudity for both sides.
