No, actually. I do not find a photo of the human form offensive for children. For heaven's sake, about 50% of children are brestfed in infancy. Once a child reaches the age of 5, how do breasts suddenly become offensive. Furthermore, many young women do not know how to perform a correct breast exam. In my experience, photographs are extremely helpful in this arena.

: How odd an attitude. It is true that on its own, the image of a breast obviously doesn't have a corrupting influence. However, on the subject of nudity, how is the line drawn. There has to be a threshold of tolerance somewhere, right? Is a bare breast OK? How about full frontal nudity? What about a picture of an erect penis? If we are allowing nudity, there must be some guideline as to where the the threshold is drawn? Who decides this? Who polices it? Is it even possible for such a guideline to be anything more than unambiguous and subjective? Would it not be sensible to just conclude perhaps we should just consider human nudity inappropriate for a reference on which we hope children will learn? It's not like the site will lack serious informative content by having a policy against human nudity. A depiction of how to perform a breast exam can be just as effective if shown with a clothed breast or with some kind of breast analog. Although, perhaps the job of teaching about breast examination should be left to qualified doctors?
