Is there some questionable comments in that thread? Yes.
Should the thread be shut down? No.
Once you start saying it is bad to look at pictures of beautiful women, because they are just that, you have pretty much crossed a line you can't come back from. There is nothing wrong whatsoever about pictures of beautiful women, or chiseled sculptured men being looked at if the photographs are consensual by all parties. It is the human condition to want to look at the best physical specimens of our species. The only people that truly could have a problem with it, are those that envy people with physical gifts, they do not have. Sorry, but that's life. I wish I looked like Channing Tatum, but unfortunately I was blessed closer to the Billy Mays side of the scale. But that doesn't mean I don't want the women I date from looking at a shirtless picture of a chiseled Brad Pitt.
What is a better option? Post pictures of Miyam Bialiks math test scores? Melissa Mcarthy's needle point? I am sure they are both beautiful people on the inside. But pretty much any red blooded male, does not fantasize about those women, nor does a woman fantasize about Jonah Hill or Ernest Borgnine.
There is nothing wrong about admiring the human form. And most of us choose to admire people who have the ideal version of it. I am all for being politically correct to a certain degree, but shutting down that thread is pushing it way to far. Maybe curb the comments, and get rid of the borderline pictures. But anything beyond that, is going into some pretty extremist Disney'esque territory.
