I think this rule was intended to inflict the nude Kathy Bates and Diane Keaton on Jack Nicholson; everything else is just a by-product.
And didn’t Mary Tyler Moore and Julie Andrews both flash some skin late in their careers? Think about it, does the world really need to see more of Harvey Keitel’s penis? Maybe Alan Alda in the buff, or Robert Redford’s now withered loins? Be careful what you ask for…
I think Ms. Knightley is a fine looking young woman, but I like her Bend it Like Beckham co-star Parminder Nagra better. I think she’s prettier and a better actress, so I don’t know why Keira gets to be the big movie star now while Nagra languishes on ER.
True enough, although thinking of people who were in Bend it Like Beckham, it may please you to know that Jonathan Rhys Meyers has done several nude scenes in the past. This includes the most gratuitous shower scene I have ever seen, in the A&E remake of The Magnificent Ambersons. Not terribly revealing, but truly pointless – in the middle of an important speech he suddenly drops his towel and jumps in the shower. He has to finish the speech from the shower, and then must end the scene by storming out of the shower! It was hilarious.
And the nominees for 2004 are:
Jessica Boehrs in Eurotrip
Rosario Dawson in Alexander
Eva Green in The Dreamers
Samantha Morton in Code 46
Blanchard Ryan in Open Water
Um, as a slim person I’d like to point out that calling a thin person anorexic is just as nasty as calling a heavy person a fat cow. Many of us don’t diet ourselves into this appearance, we just have high metabolisms.
Having said that, I must admit I spit my coke all over my keyboard the first time I saw the Estee Lauder model Carolyn Murphy referred to as “Skeletor”.

Bravo, Finn! Bravo! Lovely!
Here’s a pair for you:

Thank you much, but that pair is insufficient for use as pillows.
I think this thread is now having an effect on the outside world. I’ve seen The Hole DVD for sale at WalMart for $15 in the past. Today I saw a copy that had been re-priced to $23. Obviously people are hearing about its “added value”.
Huh? I posted the OP on the 29th.
Since Keira is so skinny that I can see ribs through her skin, her upper arms are the same exact diameter as her forearms, and she has absolutely no definition to her waist, or hips, I think it’s perfectly reasonable to say she’s not attractive.
While she may not be anorexic, she’s probably underweight by quite a bit, and to me she looks malnourished. Lots of people don’t find fat attractive, well, I don’t find skinny attractive.
No offense intended at all. There is quite a difference between slim and anorexic. As some others have pointed out, Ms. Knightley is unhealthily bony-looking, and probably is anorexic. As are many other (but of course not all) actresses who do nude scenes.
I just about pissed my pants when I read that. That’s awesome. 
That’s a hell of a generalization.
It’s a whole lot different than saying that Camryn Manheim should skip the occasional meal. As should many other (but of course not all) fat women.
It is different, right?
After all, whenever someone so much as uses the word “fat” around here they get pilloried. It works when making generalizations about people who are skinny as well, right?

She has always been that slim. Always. And I don’t think she is unhealthily bony. She looks pretty much as thin as I was at her age. Though I’m a bloke, of course.
She’s also very fit, and has played many roles where she has to be healthy and active to do the stunts and sports needed.
I think part of your post didn’t make it through. The part where you demonstrate that most (let’s define it conservatively as a 50% majority) actresses who appear nude are anorexic. Since I know you don’t want to just regurgitate anecdotes, maybe you could list actresses from the last few months’ theatrical releases and the evidence that they suffer from anorexia. That would be good.
It must be that a local station is running CBS’s Saturday night lineup from 1974 and I’m suffering flashbacks in the form of time expansion. Those movie parodies on Carol Burnett used to be longer than the original movies and movies were an entire lifetime long.
Remember, kids, don’t take drugs but if you do be prepared to deal with the consequences. You will eat, and enjoy, things you never thought you would, you’ll find the double entendres on Match Game '74 subtle and hilarious, and deciding what you want at McDonalds will be the most exquisite torture. Prepare by writing down your order before you arrive and get out a single bill that you can be sure will totally cover the tab so you don’t have to figure out change. But beware; they long ago installed a Dope Scope in every driveup and will KNOW you are high.
I’d do her.
Generally I prefer a woman who won’t break if you fuck her.
But each to their own. (be gentle, twigs snap easy)
But how many were convicted?
Dudes can be-and have been- arrested for things that are not “illegal”. An arrest does not prove that such is illgal, just that it is fuzzy enough for an arrest to have some validity. Certainly the law is fuzzy and unclear- if it wasn’t “Pretty Baby” would definatley be “Child Porn”. But it’s not.
Considering the ways in which being arrested for child pornography can ruin a person’s life, I think the fact that they were arrested is quite horrible enough.
Skinny does not mean weak. GF weighs half of what I do, and I ain’t broke her yet.
Sarcasm and tongue in cheek, I’m not really saying that skinny people tend to break bones easier.
Man, I am doing this a lot recently - I think I might be in a bad mood or something!
I didn’t mean to sound so snarky, and was actually trying to be funny (and apparently failing).
