Question about the photos


Did the women in the pictures pose completely revealed, or did they have something in front of their bodies covering some parts of it (like cushions or those pastries?) Thanks.

You don't see anything. Don't know if that's good or bad news for you. :-)

I'm a woman, so it's good news :) Not because I care about nudity, but because I felt defensive of the women's dignity. I didn't care about us viewers seeing anything, but didn't want the characters to feel like they had to reveal everything in their pictures, so strategically-placed objects in the photos seemed like a perfect idea. Thanks!

but that defies the whole point!

either you wanna show it or you don't, don't HALF show and dance around it. they should just do it!

It doesn't necessarily. For the same reason it's not legal in most countries to walk around in your underwear or swim wear calling it "indecent exposure" it was seen for the women as a risqué move to pose showing as much flesh as they did. It was daring and not something anyone else would likely do. They just didn't show anything to keep it tasteful, full nudity can be tasteful and beautiful but they wanted to play it safe, be respectful of their reputation and as another poster said maintain their dignity. Doesn't mean they
weren't still naked ! :)
