You obviously have some real prudish issues about nudity. I see absolutely nothing wrong with it. And sorry, nude photographs are not pornography! Especially the very mild kind they are likely to print in fan magazines.

Honey,...
first off: I would have read your post even it weren't written in big red letters.
Use the normal font without bright colors.
It's good enough for us, it will do the job for you as well. Smile

It's funny to see how you react. A naked chest, spilled some water over their muscular arms?
Those photos are considerate fanservice in japan. It's the most normal thing there.
Even in the rest of the world it's not a big deal (American hillbillies aside) but you as a girl from egypt almost got a heart attack.
I mean, they're good looking. It's not that you were looking at pictures of me.
Why don't you enjoy it?
I find it very interesting to see all those different cultures interact, thanks to the internet.

Take it as a chance to learn something new.

BTW: yamapi is tinyyyyy~

I am going to be completely honest to the question "What do you think when you see your idol naked in magazines?" Several thoughts come across my mind.

Firstly, "Wow, I'd hit that." Secondly, "I wonder if he really is tiny." Thirdly, "I took photography, I wonder if I could get a career that involves naked japanese idols...."

Fanservice sells. If there were a choice of magazines, one with a naked Yamapi insert, and one without, I do wonder what the majority of us would buy......

I think to myself.. I WANT THAT! If you don't like what you see just ignore it and see your favorite idols as whatever they are. I don't see what the big deal is.

Hmm well...it really depends...

If it's a situation where the celebrity is ALWAYS showing up nude, then I'd have a negative reaction to that person, something like, "oh, they're just banking on sex appeal, probably have zero talent" and while I might enjoy some of the photos I wouldn't have a very high opinion of that person.

If the photos are just tasteless or trashy looking, then I wouldn't enjoy 'em AND my opinion of that person would go down.

However, if they're occasional and nicely done, I have no problems with it at all. thumright

My favorite J-pop group is Arashi, also Johnny's idols, and while they've done some nude/nearly nude photos, in the majority of their photos they're clothed.

Edit - meant to say but forgot, that I haven't seen any of the photos referred to in the original message & don't even know who Edison Chen is, nevermind what his photo scandal was about.

well akanishi jin photos for me it was so trashy i'm not the only one who is saying that even u can check the comment that was written under those photos most of negative comments actually was for the photos of matsumoto jun and akanashi jin that was puplished in AN AN magazine and you can google it but can any one plz tell me what johny's point of view of the "clean image " Whistling oh and if we imagine that some of these photos was for exmple of one of hollywood celeb. ppl in usa i think will consider it as scandel or they just will be happy about it
by the way i'm not against your ideas guys but i wanna know how ppl will react and think about this issue

There have been cases where I thought a little less of a woman who did nudity but I'm always happy to see male nudity. I guess that makes me a hypocrite.

To Caramelchampagne, I can see where you are coming from. If you fell for someone because of their innocent image then seeing them doing something overtly sexual could be a real turn off.

Um.... WTF?

Edison Chen's situation is not even in the same freaking ballpark as Japanese johnny's boys posing in magazines half nude.

Other than the fact that China and Japan have different views about nudity and porn... well, that is the difference. One is just nudity the other was porn.

Johnny's boys are getting paid to pose semi-nude in published magazines.

Edison's scandal was because they were private pictures of his sexcapades with his past girlfriends that were stolen. It was actually porn with genitalia engaging in sexual activities being VERY visible. He didn't get paid for this and it wasn't a photo shoot. It was an invasion of privacy. While no one was shocked by the fact that Edison was a naughty boy when he was younger (that everyone knew), the issue was more about the fact that several very famous women who were well off and married with children since they stopped dating Edison YEARS ago were tarnished with the photos along with Edison.

So please, do not compare things like Yamapi's LV shoot to Edison's homemade porn. It's not the same and it's insulting to all parties to say they are.

And for the record. Edison only had to drop his career in China for the unforeseeable future. He is still working in North America though.

@ tass your are sick lol Yamapi is tiny rotfl...........It not that I THOUGHT he was big but tiny? lollollol you killing me! Oh yeah I don't see nothing wrong with photo or even bed scenes. I personal perfer when the actor shows his butt, especially if it's as nice as Kim Rae Won in (Plum Blossom) or Kwon Kye Sang in (Moonlight in Seoul). They may not know how to kiss, but they do nice bed scenes in (MOVIES) of course. God forbid if they do an proper kiss in these damm drama I'm hooked on!

After reading this topic, it's pretty obvious someone is not getting any.
Second, what kind of lousy porn have you been watching to compare it to the photos of An.An magazine?

And Third: you shouldn't compare a sex scandal (Edison Chen's) to the pictures of that prestigious magazine. Only the ones who are at the peak of their careers have gotten the honor to pose nude for An.An The ones who have the best pictures of all time are Kimura Takuya and Akanishi Jin. They're the only ones who made the photoshoot look natural and believable.
Everyone (Kamenashi's fans, I mean) was so sure he was the one from KAT-TUN who was going to pose naked for that photoshoot you hate so much, so it was really surprising to realize that the one who was actually asked to appear was Jin.
(Even though Kame has worked his ass off , he hasn't been invited by the producers to do so... maybe because he might not be interesting enough for them, even though he can be seen everywhere).

Artistic/ Nasty/ Trashy/ Something that's completely normal/ A way to appreciate the beauty of the naked body...
That's for everyone to judge... based on our own repressions and downright ignorance.
