Movies Without Nudity

I've got some new information up at www.movieswithoutnudity.com on Movies Without Nudity.

Basically, it is a list of movies that indicates whether or not they have nudity in them. I've only made it through the A-K's, but I'm working on it. The list has about 1,750 movie titles so far.

A lot of people might wonder why I would create such a list. Basically, one of the main struggles for men is lust. An awful lot of men struggle with pornography, and it is destroying marriages. Nudity in movies is just a jumping off point.

http://www.time.com/time/2004/sex/ar...n_the_01a.html

Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 rentals is a porn flick? 1 in 4 American adults surveyed in 2002 admitted to seeing an x-rated movie in the past year. (All stats from the print version of the Time article.)

I was gonna say after seeing this topic, "Whaa? Such a thing exists?"

Sounds like a good project.

I personally have nothing against nudity in movies, or anywhere for that matter. (Of course I don't watch many movies so I don't see it that often.) However, I DO believe that there must be a viable reason for having nudity in a movie, and that selling more tickets is NOT a viable reason.

That 1 in 5 rentals is a porn flick is a sad statistic.

It's all part of a bigger trend we're facing in society... I have a whole rant here but I'll spare you :-)

Our society has become one that sells so much stuff with sex and scantilly clad women that we have dumbed ourselves down on the concept of lust being a sin. That's what my lesson/article deals with.

It's hard to tell from looking at the list. What's the ratio of with nudity versus without nudity?

Bottom of the page at http://www.marriedadults.com/movieguide/ where it says "Download Movies Without Nudity List in PDF Format."

Yeah. There are plenty of websites with reviews and blow-by-blow descriptions of content. What I wanted was just a quick reference for whether or not the movie has nudity in it.

If you want more info, check out our other thread: http://frappydoo.com/forum/showthrea...&threadid=2373.

I believe I noticed at least one error on the list. What is the source for the information?

You need to have some kind of page where people can make a pledge to stop watching that trash.

It was "But I'm A Cheerleader".

Personally I view such a list as a poor tool by which to make decisions on what to see. One may as well make lists of films showing left-handedness and people eating French food for all the good it does.

I dunno, these days there might be a lot of people wanting that French food list

Oddly enough a little while back I remember finding a list with descriptions of movies that did show nudity, but only in a non-sexual context. (I'm not quite sure how getting out of bed afterward qualifies into that category though, but apparently it did...) I can try and dig up the link again if anyone wants to check it out.

The girls use large flash cards to identify sexual stereotypes and we briefly see one that shows female full frontal nudity.
