What Roddy says is often subject to interpretation.

First off, the houseguests are not being "compromised". They knew this was the case and chose not to care. I have seen amy tell the cameras to get off of her and they do....WHEN THEY ASK. But when they dont ask.....its whatever goes.
Second, If you dont like the show and its policies.............DONT watch it. That simple.
JMHO FWIW

I am being nice. I am always nice. This game cracks me up. Please take my comments with the sense of humor in which they are delivered, even if you don't find it funny. I am always laughing.

There is nothing even remotely similar between Miss North Carolina and Big Brother. Miss NC's photo was taken without consent (as mentioned above) and turned in by a disgruntled ex-boyfriend. Miss America did not take away her crown - she prematurely gave it up after the photos surfaced. Then, since the photos were not consentual, she went to court to try to get her crown back and the judge ruled in favor of the organization (mainly because there was already a replacement named). Miss America is a very strict organization with very strict rules about public nudity. (ie. Vanessa Williams posed for Playboy and her Miss America crown was taken away from her).

Big Brother, on the other hand, is taping these people with their consent. I won't go into reasons why they are not responsible for people taking screen caps of the houseguests if they are naked on the feeds, because it has already been discussed here. In some people's opinion, it may be in poor taste (not mine particularly because nudity doesn't bother me and these people signed up to have camera's on them that would be streamed live on the internet). However, it is not unjust or a violation because they signed the contracts allowing it to happen. There are places they can go to undress (bathroom, shower) - if they choose not to take advantage of them it is their fault.

Well let me point out if I may, there are no pictures of Dani or Jason nude, thats becuase they where very careful how and where they changed. They knew about all the cameras and they should have been more careful. Im sure some people like Tonya wanted too be caught nude,furthermore,like some in here posted BB nor CBS have been posting the nude pics, Its the general public and its fully legal! So it is there own fault!

Has Breezy checked out the pic of Roddy's man tool yet? That is worth a very small chuckle.

My question has been answered..I wondered who
the exibitionist was. It was Rod the man.

"Miss America is a very strict organization with very strict rules about public nudity. (ie. Vanessa Williams posed for Playboy and her Miss America crown was taken away from her)."


Just for the record, Vanessa Williams did not pose for Playboy. Photos that had been taken by a photographer she worked for when she was 18 or 19 were sold to Penthouse and printed during her reign as Miss America. They were first offered to The Miss America Organization, and in the past they had always paid in order to spare their "Queen" any embarassment. In Miss Williams case she was assured they would do this for her, but they apparently changed their minds without telling her. A few months later the pictures were in Penthouse and they demanded she resign. Go figure.

Vanessa posed with other females depicting a lesbian experience.

I'm sure every single houseguest knew that there was a possibility that the live feeds would show them unclothed. I'm also equally sure that some of them might tend toward exhibitionism (I swear there are a couple of instances when Tonya smiled directly into the camera). When Amy asks, the cams move. Lisa, I've noticed, now goes into the bathroom to change.

Breezy, you asked, so I'll answer. Yes, I feel that you are a little old fashioned in this sense. These people are grownups. They are not being taken advantage of. They knew what they were getting into when they walked thru those doors. They have a responsibility, too, to ask the cams to move.

Please note: I am NOT bashing Breezy. I am simply answering a question that was answered (and hopefully I did it in a polite manner).

Tonya wouldn't have even been on the show if she couldn't have her fun bags photographed by drooling internet viewers.

No one is compromised Breezy- they know the cams are there... and if you don't have live feeds you don't know Amy's tone of voice- for example teasing because she knows the cameras always stay on.

I don't know why you are more concerned about the females being compromised than the males either.... I mean, if you're going to take up the cause why not do so fairly?

Finally... who cares? I'm a woman and I'll let you in on a secret- we all have boobs and butts. So some folks get a few giggles out of boob and butt shots, in the big picture whats the big freaking deal?

Now if they were shwing camera close ups of their social security cards I might be a little taken aback...

Duncan, no offense taken. Thanks for your comments also Ryn, and Pamy. It does make more interesting discussion to have all sides represented doesn't it? I am a new member and have enjoyed it so far. Hope to talk to you all again! :)

Breezy didn't thank me for my contributions, but I am sure she knows I am just having a little fun. Thanks for the thread and I hope you have a ball the last couple weeks watching this goofy show.

Unfortunately, though, sad but true!

Carigsby, The Miss America Pageant wanted someone with "moral character" to represent them, that is why they took away her crown. I saw this on the news yesterday and today. This statement leads one to believe that to submit to nude photographs implies lack of moral character.

Costacat and others, I can understand your viewpoint, in that the houseguests are supposedly aware of the cameras in advance. The fact that Jason and Danielle have not been photographed, show that it is possible to live here and not be violated in this fashion. So I can see your side, but I am just amazed that this whole "nude pic" format was ever accepted by the televsion stations at all.

And finally the thing that concerns me is that so many people find nothing wrong with people being filmed nude and posting pics to the internet. This reflects to me the continuing decline of morals and values in America. We are becoming increasingly desensitized to issues of this nature, so that when one voices an objection to something of this kind, ridicule is a common result.

Lipservice - thanks for the clarification on Vanessa Williams.

I could comment for hours on the declining moral values of Americans. The Big Brother Television Program contains numerous examples of gossip, slander, insult, racist comments, and of course nudity. Josh even smacked Gerry's bed while he was sleeping and called him a Nazi. Mean behavior abounds from people cooped up in a house with a bunch of strangers. Humor is the best way to handle this in my opinion. I get unsolicited requests from internet entrepreneurs every single day wanting me to visit their garbage porn sites. I have never gone to one, and I never will. Breezy needs to stop watching BB and get serious about her crusade against rotten values and horrible morals. Practice what you preach and change the channel to Sponge Bob Square Pants.

Breezy, it's not that we do or don't like the nudity on the net, we realize it's part of BB.
I don't visit the nudity sites. Although, there was one of Roddy (at a distance) which I did see..LOL
As Ryn very appropriately pointed out, they (HG's) should have researched before going into the house. (The cameras "see" everything)
We can object to what is posted on other sites, but we can do nothing about it. If it's on the live feeds, it's fair game. Sorry.

Woodpecker.. I'll second that on Sponge Bob
