Does Facebook allow nudity/pornography now?

If you dont like it, unfriend the people and move on. Jesus christ it is just that simple.

When i was 4 years old i lived in "Utrecht", every time i went to my aunts house i walked pass the red light district... i wasn't exactly sure what it was but i had a good idea... though i didn't exactly know what sex was until i was like 6/7 years old.. and not a single damn was given at any point.

I'd be more conserned about kids actualy being on facebook rather than them seeing a naked body... but then again that might be just my European way of thinking.

Also as dutchies in general being pretty easy on the topic of sex aswell.
Where as in the states a nipple slip is considered a public outrage and taints children for life
culture differences aside stuff like that shouldn't be on such a social media lots of dark corners of the interwebz to discuss and show such things and nobody should have an issue with that.

For something the size of Facebook, I expect either squeaky cleanliness, or a way to block graphic images. I'm not talking "A way" that we internet-savvy gamers would find , but something so glaringly obvious that first-time users of the internet in general would find it. Finger-length letters informing the new user that YOU MUST CLICK SETTINGS THEN SECURITY TO AVOID PORN AND GORE! or something to that effect, but you get the point.

Again, I don't expect safety on the internet in general, but that's not what we are discussing here. We are discussing a social networking site with over 1 billion users.

Some safety should be expected.

You can't say you want that level of safety, and in the same post mention the over a billion users.. I've already mentioned it twice now, but facebook already has a process in place for this sort of thing, people need to understand however that with the sheer volume of content continuously being uploaded and reported, it takes time to get through it and they need to prioritise what they tackle first.
Until users no long have the ability to upload content or facebook invents some crazy advanced, infallible algorithm, then people need to learn to deal with it or take your business elsewhere.

First world problems.

I'm getting awfully sick of this.. just because greater hardships/problems exist, that doesn't mean everything else anyone could be going through is meaningless or trivial.

Could someone link the picture or facebook page?
There's a huge difference between penetration from the back and penetration from the back.
Do you actually see the penetration, or it's implied? Like would a little kid know what's going on? or just think "naked people"

Erm... what?

Then don't let your young children run willy-nilly on the internet.

There comes a point at which personal responsibility overrides public.

Perfectly stated

Do you really need a warning label as your homepage so when you log on the internet you are reminded there is stuff around that some will consider offensive?

[Deleted]

I think you are overreacting, first of all it's the freaking Internet, porn is everywhere, don't want kids watching it? Don't let them on the computer... Secondly, it's just porn, which is quite harmless. I'm quite sick of the whole censoring on TV as it is anyways. "Oh noes they showed a females breasts on TV!" big deal, get over it...

[someotherguy]

Erm... what?

We don't know if it's soft core or hard core.

It's not (to me) so much that there is *oh noes nekkid people on the interwebs!*...it's that they have a policy against nudity/porn and they enforce it sometimes and not others. They frequently take down images of women breastfeeding, even if no nipple is exposed, but for some reason straight-up naked breasts are allowed at other (actually pornographic) times.

I don't have kids, but if I did, I wouldn't want them stumbling on one of these things.

Oh lol.
5m on the internet and they would run into it.
Also kids will learn about it where all other kids learn, elementary school/middle school, and start exploring by late middle/high school.
Soooo trying to "protect" them doesnt really do any good, nor is it really viable.
In fact, one may argue that it actually damages them, as they see it as a tabu and thus develop an odd obsession over it.
Its natural, its human, its normal, not a big deal.
I would rather not be bombarded by sex all the time, its enough already, but the "protect the kids" argument is starting to get real old, overused in everything and most of the times just as an excuse for the adults agenda, without actual care for the kids.

A 8 year old wont start having sex just because he/she saw a picture on facebook, and a 15-18ish year old will even without having ever seen it.

But yes, considering it is by law a restricted to certain age thing, it shouldnt be on facebook.
Report it?

people really need to get over sexuality lol...

I think it's fair to say that it's close to impossible to keep children from stuff like Facebook in this time and age. If they won't use it at your own house, they will do it at their friends houses.

[Amnasty]

I think they took it down because i dont see it at ALL =(

The only problem that have an issue with this is those that shelter their chillun from sex. Really, it's quite simple; either they are too young to understand it, or old 'enough' if you get my drift.

This is too all over the place for me. If a solid response manifests then there may be a topic.. otherwise....
