reminder to self: Old enough to be his sugar daddy.....old enough to be his sugar daddy....old enough to be his sugar daddy...
I think he looks beautiful. He's got a fabulous body.
For those who are getting all upset about the thread:
1. It came with a warning. You didn't have to look. (But admit it...you wanted to...)
2. I lived in Europe for seven years. Violence is considered way more "eww" than nudity. Read Liz's post again. I totally agree.
A friend of mine asked me if her 8 year old could see Van Helsing, and I mentioned it was a tad gory. She said "That's fine. As long as there's no nudity." Huh? It's okay to see Dracula's skin peel off, but a boob is offensive?

Is everyone satisfied that it is Brian? Seems to me that it's some kid trying to get into the Porn industry.

Why do you say it like the 2 are mutually exclusive?Originally Posted by Joesitz
What's pornographic about these pics? He has a beautiful body and the photo's are tastefully done. Yes they may be viewed as provocative but they are not explicit and IMO do not constitute porn. Here in the UK you can see a lot more flesh than that in most daily newspapers.
"A friend of mine asked me if her 8 year old could see Van Helsing, and I mentioned it was a tad gory. She said "That's fine. As long as there's no nudity.""
This kind of attitude is utter madness. We are all born naked. We are not born with a machine gun strapped to our arm. I just can't see the logic in this kind of thinking!
:D I won't rub it in that I'm Brian's age! hehehe
Mathman:
Re "having to post" : it was my DUTY as a loyal Golden Skate poster to make sure that everyone on our forum who does not visit FSU would have the ability to view the David that is Brian Joubert.
Ladskater: Prudish: Not everyone likes nudity which is why I had the warning and just posted the links. That way Takura's parents won't have to ban her/him from our site (if Takura is the age he/she says he/she is).
so because Europe does it I should be okay with it. hm. *thinks* Sorry that's not going to happen. And it's not because I'm an American.
I appreciate the warning and I think that this thread is great... I had to delete a thread that just outright showed the photo without any warning and I wasn't impressed. His butt was big, yuck.
It's bad enough that when I was little my mom took pics of me playing in the bathtub... really do I want to see BJ nude? no. I have never found it to be a cool idea LOL
Ummm..its not like it shows anything, If it did, Id have a problem, but it doesnt, so...
Agreed....a vaguely relevant quote springs to mind I read recently:"A friend of mine asked me if her 8 year old could see Van Helsing, and I mentioned it was a tad gory. She said "That's fine. As long as there's no nudity.""

"America has weird hang-ups about sex .... Personally, if my son grows up and starts shooting people, I’ll be concerned. But if he grows up and starts having sex, I’ll be elated." - Tom Smith (computer game designer)
kat. (who still doesn't think Brian Joubert is particularly cute, even when nekkid. And that first pic looked kinda fake!)
I love that Tom Smith quote Kateri! So true.
IMO, I don't like these pics, but not because he''s a bit nude. IMO, he has a great body, and I certainly don't mind him showing it off. Plus, I am his age, so I don't feel so pervy, lol.
However, his face is so weird. I don't know, there's something wrong with it. IMO, I prefer the pics where his personality shows, even if he is fully clothed.
that's my photographer's take on most nudes... it really doesn't show personality... just a lot of skin... which *whoopy* isn't all that intriguing...
Violence is another thing I don't like a lot of... however I think the whole sex thing in the US is "we don't show it, but we encourage it" you're looked on as a Freak these days if you don't have sex once you hit 16... if you haven't been doing it you're either gay or there's something wrong with you. personally I think that's sick and twisted in a way. "Get pregnant and have STDs before you're old enough to drink!"
I know we're getting a bit OT here, but couldn't you say that the attitude you're describing is mostly done by adolescents? And wouldn't it be possible that that attitude stems from sex being such a taboo subject in America?you're looked on as a Freak these days if you don't have sex once you hit 16... if you haven't been doing it you're either gay or there's something wrong with you. personally I think that's sick and twisted in a way. "Get pregnant and have STDs before you're old enough to drink!"
The reason why people might think that way is because people don't really talk about sex and what's normal and what's not about it. I think if people were willing to talk about sex more openly, than people who choose not to have sex wouldn't feel like outcast surrounded by teens who are having sex. I know I could explain this better, but I think that if sex was a more normal subject than it wouldn't be such a big deal to your peers if you are having it or not.
Anyways, just because you have sex doesn't mean you get pregnant and have STDs...IMO, it's the lack of information with the unwillingness of adults to talk about sex with their kids that gets teens pregnant and have STDs most of the time, IMO.
most of the time... because condemns are so great they work 99.999999 % of the time... if they're not torn or anything.
I don't know... instead of beating into kids heads that hey sex isn't the only to do on a Sat. night in school they give out free condemns and tell them to "be safe" and "have fun"...
Hollywood isn't ashamed to push the sex agenda...
and a lot of adults have sex with their partners... it's not just our age group of people
My health teacher in 9th grade gave a 2 week course on the many different things you could get in order to have safe sex... every thing from the flavored condemns to the spiked ones(I can only imagine UGH) and it was more uncomfortable and it made other people ask why I didn't want to do it even more. (Though I think that's why her son was never into sex in high school either... man was he embarassed! LOL)While it will make those "I'll do it or die" kids more aware of how to be "safer" it's still not the best option and I wish that schools would let kids know that it's ok NOT to be sexually active. With the way boy/girl friends break up and mix it up... it's not that great an idea
anyway, back on topic... the one I saw of BJ last night was really funky... his butt was out of proportion with his body(from the look I got... didn't spend too much time assessing the photograph) which made me wonder if it was the way the photograph was taken or if someone played around with a graphics program... just my take...
