Greetings Ron,

Of course there are individual preferences constructed by personal 
experience, but I was talking about the larger patterns that are 
constantly and obviously infused with potency by the culture.  When I 
stated I was talking about nudity rather than pornography, I wasn't 
making a criticism, but trying to clarify my meaning.  I meant 
nudity, sans sexuality.  But as you rightly suggest the line between 
the two, in personal context, is not always so obvious.
