And how are you proposing to control this?
Age verification like using credit cards? :sweat::sweat:
A close-up photo of facial hair or hairy chest for proof of over 18? :bsmilie: :bsmilie:

not really. there is a difference between telling tom and jane to not frolick in the dangerous part of the jungles, compared to not allowing them to touch each other at all. censorship is censorship, i'll give you that, and this is after all, undeniably.. the better form of censorship that you can get today.
As evidenced by my post count, I'm very new here, and lurk far more than I post. However this topic struck a nerve; censorship, in any form, is never good, no matter what form it takes. I'm with Deadpoet here. I abhor any control mechanisms created by a select few who thinks everyone should conform to their standard of morality. It is oppression, and you cannot disguise it, and I will not support it.:nono:
I also think that a lot of people have missed the point. This being an internet forum, you will always attract certain forms of scum. There is no way to combat that except for being aware and knowing how to protect yourself. I leave you with this gem of a quote, feel free to extrapolate its meaning.
"He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself."

By the time, and if, CS gone the way of SG Girls, SG Girls will be another light year ahead doing something else.
Back in the 1800's, let's say somewhere in China or North America, if a girl wears what a typical Singaporean teenagers might be wearing these days, she might be hauled off to jail, stoned to death, and at the very lest branded with the word "slut" on her forehead??
time will change everything, including our thoughts and expectations.

Censorship is everywhere and we practise it everyday.
Not using the "F" word when you're speaking to your boss or parents even when you're piss off is already a form of self censorship. Not posting an image which you have shot where the model accidentally expose herself is also censorship. So you see, not all censorship are bad.
You're right to say that this is an open forum and a certain level of scum and sleeze will creep in. Thing is, do we allow this to con't and grow or do we contain it?
one thing I don't understand is why are the participant's name hidden or disguised? :dunno:
or probably it's always the same few blokes who turned up for those shoots therefore to prevent people from thinking likewise, their identities are hidden :think: :bsmilie:
