It's mild compared to webcam sites which have become the modern Sodom and Gommorah of the day. Times change, ask Pee-Wee Herman... oh wait we can't. Life goes on.

True. But I for one would rather see UHH not compared to those sites.
I feel you (we) should post whatever we want. If you're offended, don't look.

Are you suggesting there should be no rules?

Does not appear that the "no rules" question was answered
I'm suggesting that no part of the human body should be off limits. I don't feel that that photo was inappropriate.

There is nothing inappropriate in the photo, nor in any photo for that matter. The “appropriateness” is where and why it is posted. (To be blunt, a picture of an anus is fine… in an anatomy text… or maybe a perv mag.)
And I am not asking for a change in rules for UHH; I am simply expressing my opinion that the posted image is not what I expect to see on UHH. At one point in time there was a noticeable distinction between photos in Playboy vs Penthouse and Hustler. I prefer to see UHH be the Playboy of that era, and I know where to go (elsewhere) for the more explicit.
And bottom line regarding the posted image, as a “photograph” or even “nude photograph” I see little to appreciate or enjoy. At best it is exhibitionism.

Just porno since no redeeming social value. Not even a good snapshot.

I tend to agree with all of your statement. UHH, as I've found out personally, is not the venue for images like this. That said, no matter what the content, images can be appreciated for how well they are executed. For the posters of UHH I think there is a sliding scale based on the intent and composition. If a user here tries to do a traditional figure study and blows the execution they're going to get more support than a photographer that delivers a poorly composed and posed crotch shot.
An information request; dies this forum have stated criteria for images to be displayed? When that criteria are not met, what is the procedure?
