Doll nudity - a problem to you?

[Wadatsumi]

I have no problem with it and think it's silly some people are uncomfortable with a non-anatomically correct piece of plastic that vaguely resembles a human being naked.  If I'm buying a used doll I want to know what condition the body is in, also I store all my dolls in the nude to avoid clothing stains (Barbie legs anyone?) or melt marks from different types of plastic touching for a long time.

Another thing I was thinking of- Clawdeen and the other werewolves and Toralei and the werecats all have 'fur' so if they are nude (without clothes) they still have their fur and we don't consider our pet cats and dogs nude when they run around wearing only their fur.  My kitty would murder me in my sleep if I started making him wear clothes because some people don't like the fact they can see his kitty weewee and nipples.

yep exactly!!!

I don't mind them being nude c: If they were more detailed I might, but even then it still doesn't bother me too much. Sometimes I display mine naked, especially ones like Robecca which have cool details you can't see when they have clothes on. ^^

No. Not at all.
To me, censoring the average fashion doll might be done for comedy but it seems silly to do it in seriousness. They are so blank that you aren't even covering nudity but more the CONCEPT of nudity.
For more accurate sculpts, I'm still not bothered by it but it warrants a heads-up just in case. Even if you're totally okay with it, you might have someone with you that will tease you about "porno dolls" or something.
Are like has been said, you DO want to see the sculpt, certainly with pricey BJDs.

As a society we've taken something pretty normal and sexualized the heck out of it.  Not that I'm so totally above it, I mean. Dolls are one thing but there's no way I could stand around a nudist talking like they were clothed ^_^;;

I've seen some customized REALLY anatomically correct Ken dolls (hair and all) and I do have to say that I am prudish enough to not want to have one displayed nude (I probably wouldn't own one either). I don't know if it's because of society or past abuse issues or whatever but I admit that's my deal, and I don't think badly of anyone who would. I wouldn't be able to go to a nude beach because I would be laughing hysterically and that wouldn't be very nice to the people there.

Are we talking about sales photos in general, on the Arena or on EBay? In general and on EBay I think it's nice of people to warn about nudity for very anatomically correct photos in the title, I don't think it's allowable to post very anatomically correct photos on the Arena if I am not mistaken, because of the ages.

This. A doll is a childs toy. Children undress dolls. Children will even draw on any bits that are missing. I have seen barbies with nipples, barbies and MLP with their floos drawn on, and even a barbie with a winky 0.o

I find it disturbing and funny when I come across censored doll pics. It just draws more attention to the nudity and unwittingly places the dolls in a sexual context...

Doll nudity doesn't bother me either  Naked dolls, clothed dolls, they're all good by me, haha... as long as they're presented with respect. I also don't mind if there are *doll nudity* warnings etc for those who are more sensitive about it, and I personally do appreciate some kind of warning if it's an intentionally explicit photo/scene (not just a doll standing around nude), so I have a choice whether to look or not.

I'm like Icicle, though, in that while I don't mind other people's nude dolls, I personally don't like having my own dolls hanging around naked because I feel bad for them! It's freakin' cold here and that'd just be mean! When I have new CaMs waiting for outfits I keep them snuggled up in little blankets

I want to see pics of CAMS in blankets...

I want to see pics of CAMS in blankets...

hee! When I get the new CaMs I'll take a blanket-pic for you 

[EmBee]

It's only weird to me if there are painted on nipples or genitalia.  Otherwise it's no bother at all!

I started typing a response and then realized that Zombelina pretty much said everything I wanted to say.

I have no problem with doll nudity.  In fact, one of mine is currently nude, in bondage, and suspended from my ceiling.

Hahah, this is excellent. I lol'd.

I also have absolutely no problem with it. In fact, I like my dolls nude, and I am one of those customizers that adds drawn-on nipples.

Doll nudity doesn't bother me.  When you're changing the clothes, you're going to see the doll nude anyway.  And the MH dolls aren't that detailed.

Just what I was thinking!

[Sonata]

I don't get it either, it doesn't bother me at all. It's a doll, anyway.

Actually, I don't think I'm THAT bothered with nudity at all... xD

[bagheera86]

I'm a total liberal, and I have zero problem with nudity! We're all born naked! Personally, the think American culture as a whole is still extremely repressed when it comes to nudity, even when it comes to dolls. I commend other countries that are much more open with it!

That HBO channel begs to differ. xD
