Is this objectification of a woman? Would your opinion change if you knew:

1. The model paid to have this image taken?

or

2. This particular shot was taken by my wife?

You mean this was done by mutually consenting adults?

There will always be criticism about what we choose to do with our bodies....
and our minds. It goes with being human, especially in our culture.

I think most well balanced women love to be the subject or "object" of
photography. Naked is natural!

In my opinion, a woman partially clothed in lingerie or fabric is much sexier.
But I always appreciate seeing the naked body of a man or woman if the
photography is beautifully done, as this is.

My preference is to see even more "curves" as in cleavage.
