Admin,
Delete or move this if you like, but since “this” got hi-jacked and went “there,” I thought I’d chime in and say my piece here.
This discussion seemed to start innocently enough,(albeit immediately hi-jacked). But it’s getting asinine, and I think perhaps should have been moved instead to the waste bin.
Randy
First of all, Cheri is an official of this web site. She's not only an experienced, long time nudist, but she runs a non-landed club, and is one of the moderators of this site.
These "questions" appear to me more like looking for an argument than serious queries. What is "G" rated? What is family friendly? I think that the answer to both of those would be   . But to clarify for those who live where similar terminology is not used, G-rated in America means “General Audience.” That meaning that anyone can be in attendance, regardless of age and not be exposed to anything that would be private affairs for consenting adults or viewable only by adults. It follows that “Family Friendly” would indicate that all family members are welcome.
The original Hi-Jack occurs immediately in the second post, having nothing to do with the topic. It begins with trying to play dumb.

I'm having a bit of difficulty understanding precisely what Nudist-Resorts.org means by "G-rated" and by "family-friendly." Do the two terms mean the same thing? Are there official site definitions somewhere that I could refer to?
Garsh, I don’t understand the painfully obvious.
And then it quickly degenerates into trying to bait and start an argument by using pseudo-intellectual tactics. The example that jumps out at me as the most glaringly obvious attempt at starting an argument follows:

Overt sexuality is everywhere, especially so in nudist venues.
Well, no. It isn’t actually. At least not in this country. Yes, we have both sexes here too, and therefore sexuality, but we do poses public standards of sexual behavior with respect to sexual intimacy. I’m sure you do where you live too. It really isn’t all that difficult to determine the sex of a person you are viewing, whether clothed or not. So, a person’s sex is not any easier to determine at a nudist resort or clothing optional beach than it is on the street, or on the phone for that matter.
quote:
Cheri, "sexuality" means "sexual character; possession of the structural and functional traits of sex; the condition of being characterized and distinguished by sex."
You know very well what we’re saying when we’re referring to sexuality.
When you looked up the definition of “sexuality” in the Yahoo dictionary, you conveniently ignored the second definition. The one that obviously applies in this context:
1. The condition of being characterized and distinguished by sex.
2. Concern with or interest in sexual activity.
3. Sexual character or potency.
quote:
I have the distinctive structural and functional traits that identify me as male. Presumably you have a different set of equally distinctive structural and functional traits.
That is so profound! But no one is dazzled by your attempts to cloud the spirit and intent with technicality.
quote:
Did you perhaps mean "overt sexual activity"?
quote:
If so, please list the activities you include in the term, and give half-a-dozen examples of activities you don't.
Trying to get the lovely lady to talk dirty to you? Don’t act like a fool. You are “literate with an IQ above the standard scientific ambient temperature.” You know what sex acts are. You know what is and is not appropriate in any public setting. You can think in the abstract. Use your imagination. Get yourself off.
quote:
BTW, I don't think you should make assumptions as to what I would or wouldn't do in front of my kids. And, conversely, I strongly suspect that you do a lot of things in front of yours that I'd find anathema.
I doubt that. You don’t know her. I do. The assumption she made is a good one. Namely, that you would use good judgment and decorum when your children are present. Or was that a false assumption? Did she list any activities you wouldn’t do in front of your kids? No, she didn’t. She probably thought you could use your own judgment and decide for yourself what they might be.
quote:
I also think it's unwise of you to make assumptions about my having a religious leader. Given that I'm literate with an IQ above the standard scientific ambient temperature, why would I want (or need) one of those?
She didn't suggest that you have, or should have one. Therefore, it wasn’t an assumption that you might. And you know it. It is a universally understood example of someone that a reasonable person with good taste and upbringing would also likely use good judgment and decorum in the presence of.

Randy, I can't fault you for calling antagonist remarks for what they are. I'd also give you a few extra points for providing accurate quotes, and a few more for your creative use of our rather limited smilie collection.  
The thread is rather a mess, but since the original helpful links are right at the beginning, it's still useful, and it can also serve as an example of what not to do with a good topic.

Thanks Randy. Perhaps VM34 will now cease his inane efforts. All I say is thank G-d we have the ENGLISH CHANNEL between us and France if this is the mentality that we have in Europe!!!

Thanks guys!
I just can't help myself sometimes. I can't stand stupidity under the guise of intellect.
