Actresses and nudity

I do like how Training Day and We Own The Night show crime, murder and deceit but this lady is only complaining about showing the bits 50% of the population has.
I've seen myself and wife naked 1000's of times, I've never seen a murder.
I'm guessing the witness of one murder would be more traumatizing than if I were to see another human naked, even if it's the first time.
Stupid ideals. Why is a boob more dangerous than a bullet? -

I have never seen a woman take off her clothes in a film where it was justified (and no sex scenes don't count as the man always seems to retain his clothes). I think its the last vestige of sexism, degradation and a sort of sexual slavery ('if you don't show your tits, your career is going nowhere
I thought the whole idea of female empowerment was about choice these girls
choose
to take of their clothing, no one is holding a gun to their heads forcing them to talkin' about sexual slavery.
Julia Roberts has never been naked on screen, hasn't slowed her down one bit. Jessica Alba? No Jessica Simpson? Megan Fox?
Stop with the whole victim thing, if girls want to be naked that's THEIR CHOICE. -

That's the thing, female empowerment is about women choosing to make the choices that those who seek to "empower" them want them to make. A lot of feminists are no better than the Islamists who are all for "democracy" as long as it votes to implement Sharia.
"Free" means "can make any choice that doesn't hurt somebody else", it doesn't mean "free to do only those things that someone else believes are virtuous". -

AS far as I'm concerned, she hasn't taken them off and let 'em breath nearly enough for my liking. Once in Training Day and a brief flash in We Own the Night hardly makes her a painted hussy, compared to some actresses. She owes a moral duty to her fans to whip 'em out more frequently.

I think female nudity is a made out to be a far bigger deal than it really needs to be. If a woman wants to do a nude scene, great. If not, oh well. It's the same with male nudity. Harvey Keitel did full frontal in the very excellent "Bad Lieutenant". Giovani Risbi, I believe, did in Richard Linklater's "Slacker". Female nudity is this huge thing in America because we have such an obsession with female breasts but in a lot of ways, it's way overblown.
