That is a Christian website and forum not exactly an unbiased venue for discussion....

It's not inherently biased just because it's a Christian website and forum, but it certainly IS biased. smile

The OP ends with a leading question ("I think that it can lead to sexual thoughts which is why I'm thinking that modeling may be frowned upon. ", and the first of the following posts buy into that bias, as do some of the others. Most are speaking the same 'language', but a few are using english words to mean something quite different than their context indicates.

So God created something in His image that we are basically supposed to be ashamed of? I fail to understand that logic.

I don't mind showing off the human body (obviously), it's about how we respect the human being inside of it that matters.
Maybe they should look at that.

Maybe the self-appointed moralist types would like it better if ALL women wore burkhas?
