Erotic exhibition

I have found an older photo which is less direct then the previous one but still expresses what I wanted to express.


Every year is an Erotic Exhibition in Budapest. Actually it would be better to call it Porn Exhibition as in fact the main "exhibitors" are from the porn industry. The structure is like in any other fields, just like a travel exhibition but here instead of travel agency leaflets you can find porn magazines and dildos, and instead of intellectual presentations you can watch shows like this.
Yesterday I read about the sexual culture in Japan from Macky on the Tokyo daily photo site (search for his Sept 8. post)...and it made me think about the cultural differences regarding this issue. I dont know too much about Japan. I know about the Geisha culture but I dont know how it is nowdays. Macky's description gave me a short insight.
I know pretty well our culture here...and if you look at this photo carefully you can get some impressions.
p.s.: I hope I didnt offend anyone with this photo. I want to show this "world" as it is.

i got to know about this expo. last year, didnt know what to expect. Anyway, a friend went and he 'proudly' showed us the photos which was quite erm..uncomfortable for me. But then show casing of the naked body is quite common even on some motor shows..usually, I just close one eye -_-

hm...
you know, in shanghai, there was once a sexual culture & history exhibition in Shanghai, Not something like this kind of Erotic Exhibition.
But, the result is ... people criticized the guy who did this exhibition, they said he was spreading the "bad" ideas in our society. Now you cannot find this exhibition here at all.
...so, thats the Chinese culture.

Personally I think this goes to far. I don't like censorship expect that which we place on ourselves.

I found your photo quite discreet in the sense that unless you look closely you don't realise what's going on. No risk of offending anyone. Now for the contents - on the principle, anything between consenting adults is fine, provided no-one is pushed into anything they didn't really want to do. Kris, I have never been to a motor show. I assumed there were pretty girls, but had no idea there were naked bodies. This world is a strange one.

Well i guess i am looking at the new version here coz i can honestly not find anything offending.
We have these shows too! They're called Kama Sutra (go figure) and i wouldn't easily go there. I am quite comfortabel with nudity but pornography is totally different.
