This is a people photography forum and a clasification of a picture is subjective at best thus not necessarily identifying offensive material 100% of the time.
Regarding those that visit this sites with minors around, time to start visiting disney or the like websites, the web is a dangerous place if you are concerned with affecting your kids.

Jim are you kidding me? The FM site is open to all ages from my understanding.
You are correct about “classification of a picture is subjective” to a point. Some people may look at this photo and think it is pure filth and pornography! (I don’t) Some people out there may also think photos of people in the acts of sexual intercourse as beautiful art. Personal tastes and judgment I guess. To me this photo is tasteful but to my 6 year old or my 12 year old it is lewd. A quote from FM forum rules, “Be aware of content. Any photographs considered lewd, vulgar, sexually orientated, or pornographic in nature will be immediately deleted. Please only post decent, tasteful, artistic photographs. You may only post a link to your artistic nude image and not embed it into your message”
Adding the Nude, semi nude or NSFW in the title is a courtesy to fellow visitors and photographers. Depending on where you live, allowing minors to view what some laws will view as pornography is a crime.
My question to you… Should we not allow minors to learn from the CC and other professional photographers on this site because a select FEW don’t think it is necessary to mark a photo as possibly offensive. Should I tell my kids you should wait until your 18 to use and learn on one of the best photography websites out there?
Good comment about sending kids to the Disney website and such. Have them sit in front of the computer at Disney playing video games, not learning anything and just getting fat. Lets teach our youth to be fat, lazy and not learn instead of teaching them something useful and getting out and trying something new.
The web is not a dangerous place if you take the time to teach kids about it. What I am understanding from you is that FM should be on a blacklist because it is dangerous and the registration statement “Registration to the FM forums is free and welcome to everyone.” Is incorrect! Am I understanding correctly?
