    Puritan Task Force: I just think there are better things to do than this with one's life?
    It's great they are working but I would VERY disappointed if this is what all of my education came to.
    There must be better things to do with your life.

    How about this FB rule: No Pictures! This way people would be forced to complete a full sentence hopefully in English.
    Then, the Porn Police could look for inaappriate language rules. Like sentences ending with a preposition! Now that would be a higher calling perhaps.

    Good luck tommorow looking for nipples! Holy Mary and all that is good, you have to kidding me!!!!

    Keeping porn off facebook is important. But remember, stuff that is illegal in public is appropriate to delete, nakedness, underage drinking, etc. However, _breastfeeding_ IS legal in public, as are glimpses of nipples. Read the laws. EVERYONE would save money, billions of dollars, if all babies were breastfed, it's a major health issue. Women being chastised for nursing in public is a known obstacle to women wanting to breastfeed their children. Facebook should NOT be deleting any breastfeeding photos, even is some nipple is exposed. Breastfeeding is NORMAL for families. It's not porn.

      That's true but you DON'T have to expose your boobs to anybody else to breastfeed! Cover it up or take it to the designated area or stay home!! NO BODY wants to be that intamate with a stranger!!!!!

        Stay at home because you may have to breastfeed, puhleese. When in public everyone is faced with things they may rather not see. Dogs using the bathroom, a teenagers underwear, women in short skirts, the list could go on and on. You are no one to be telling breastfeeding mothers to stay home. Mothers breastfeed wherever you are. People who don't like go read a book on tolerance.

    I just recently (within the last month) completed a speech for one of my college classes on porn and sexual predators on social networking sites like FB and MySpace. I included a total of 11 sources that I had to quote from, so I know my info was accurate because they all reported the same information.Facebook had the best record for cleanliness out of all these sites. I applaud Facebook for its diligence in maintaining a clean site for its users because there are so few other places to go (online, on television, even on radio) that strive for cleanliness. It really has little to do with religion for me personally, I just appreciate the fact that if I am on my FB page and my 8, 11, or 12 year old children are sitting next to me, I can have confidence that they are relatively safe from having to hear their mom say, "Turn your head until I get off this page" or anything else of that nature. Not to mention the fact that I have no interest myself in being forced to look at someone else's indecency in public forums. Thank you very much, FB, for striving to maintain this level of excellence.

    I have to agree.........keep the porn crap to the sites that folks who want that stuff visit!! There has to be some 'safe space' for crying out loud!! The FB porn cops have still got some work to do since I got that crap popping up on applications for super pokes the other night as well as another application! I left myspace because of all that mess....FB might have to be next if they can't clean it up!

  • Posted By: a1r4smom @ 05/04/2009 8:22:43 PM

    Well they still have some work to do then cuz I got a bunch of porn crap on my facebook just the other day from 2 different places!!! I left myspace......hope FB can clean up their act! Been really happy till now but WILL NOT put up with that kind of stuff when I didn't look for or ask for it!!!!! If you can't keep it off the applications as well we may as well start a different medium that REALLY doesn't let that industry in!!!!! Those of us that don't seek that stuff out should have the right to not get it popping up on us either!!!

    Gosh, Dani _Gurl, you think that people get raped and stalked because they showed too much skin?You're telling us that the victim is to blame?
    Personally Dani_Gurl, I'd be happy if you and the rest of the "younger generation" simply learned to spell and write in complete sentences. A little literacy goes a long way.

  • Posted By: danie_gurl89 @ 05/04/2009 7:59:52 PM

    OMG!!!! thank u i am so damn tired of seeing naked people EVERYWHERE i cant even find a decent movie nowdays that doesnt have a damn strip club in it its getting sooo old i hate the fact that people are using sex as a resort to make money and i think that ur body is a sacred thing to b shared with only the person u love and are with not with the world i know im not alone on this matter but geez have some damn respect for yourself and your body why do people need to flaunt their bodies on the internet thats how people get stalkd and raped and i hate when people are like oh i think its cool thats also where younger and younger kids are learning it and they think its ok and its not !!!!!!!! PEOPLE RESPECT URSELF AND COVER UP!!!!!

    • Posted By: ideazinfinite @ 05/04/2009 8:15:35 PM

      Yes, i totally agree. And lets NOT blame it on the GOD for all this.

    • Posted By: ideazinfinite @ 05/04/2009 8:14:29 PM

      I absolutely agree with you! I hardly can find a movie without such scenes these days. And lets NOT blame it on the GOD.

    I enjoy my facebook account. I was on myspace for a while, but I got way to many random, indecent hits. Keep up the good work!

  • Posted By: danie_gurl89 @ 05/04/2009 8:06:46 PM

    Actually i am one of those people who dont agree with people baring their skin its not cool its not attractive and people need to realize thats why our younger audiences are thinkn its ok to be sexually active and pooping out kids at 11,12,and 13 its rediculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have younger brothers and young minds are very impressionable and you cant keep them away from everything i actually think we should do a hell of alot more to censor this i am 20 years old and not once have i ever exposed myself in any manor like some of these kids are i dont do drugs and thats NOT acceptable the younger generation is our future and to be honest that kinda scares me b/c theyre all gunna be porn stars prostitutes and druggies because theyre gunna get started and hooked soo young that they wont be able to bounce back people need to not only look at the internet but look at the movies because nowdays PG 13 has nudity in it i mean seriouslY wht the hell is wrong with the world nowdays so i want to say thank you for your efforts in cleaning the site up a bit but there still needs to be more covered up

    The one point everyone is missing here is...we all make our own choices. Facebook has made their choice to try and keep their site clean with their set of rules. I respect that. After all, it IS THEIR SITE. It was their idea, effort, labor and I'm sure blood, sweat and tears that made them successful. Now if you do not approve of the choices Facebook has made, you have the choice to find another site to post as you choose, be it T and A, Porn, breast feeding mothers, men in thongs...whatever rings your bell. Freedom of choice has not been taken from any of you...nor should it be taken from Facebook. Long live freedom of choice.

      Awesome! I couldn't agree more! Kudos!

    Ok all the people making this about religion and politics and more than it really is grow up. I dont agree with everything fb does but it is theiir sit and there has to be some kind of censorship and we all cant have it our way. Unfortinatly for those who disagree, majority rules and most people dont feel comfortable seeing people naked and doing drugs or whatever. But you do have a choice and you dont have to join facebook, everybody has there rules but if you dont want to follow you dont have to join its really that simple.

    I can't believe people get paid for this crap. It's bad enough the FCC and the self righteous Christians make up all kinds of stupid crap agaisnt the supposed morality of the spirit, but to have a group of drones, the wish i could of been porn star pot smoking rejects, for them to say what is appropriate is a bunch of crap. What the hell happened to freedom of expression. I don't see anyone telling the drug companies they can't make commercials of a freaking cartoon character supporting cyanide.

      Hey dumbass...the site belings to them, not you. You make the rules in your house, right? Well, they make the rules in theirs. You visit, be prepared to follow the rules. People like you make me sick. You believe that no matter where you go, you're entitled to do whatever you want and rail out against anyone who wants to support some sort of decency, so just piss off would you and let the rest of us enjoy in peace

    Wow, tom green got a job at facebook!!

  • Posted By: Dancing Lady @ 05/04/2009 7:47:27 PM

    Yuck?? Seeing a breast used for it's natural function is so offensive? Or a woman engaged in nurturing her baby? No one makes this kind of complaint with all of the exposed breasts for the purposes of sexual titilation (no pun intended) readily available on the internet and elsewhere.

  • Posted By: motherfudger @ 05/04/2009 7:46:54 PM

    That guy looks like tom green!!

    The only thing you will find wrong with my Facebook is a smear campaign, just like you will find in 90% of the community. The force and funding being put into dividing myself and my wife is insulting. If you investigated my Facebook about a year ago, a hacker pasted a picture of his penis on my Facebook. I guess the purpose would have been to turn away my friends and family, and to keep me from being "NETWORKED" with "NORMAL" people.

    Highly organized with intent and purpose to damage.

    We are way out there in this country. We want all the freedoms without the flack. All I hear is how Obama is wooing the Europeans and their Socialistic government. Everyone is overjoyed to hear about their health insurance picked up or some other free gift that the Euros engage in. Well guess what, they don't have the hang-ups we have here. Worried about a nipple? PLEASE! Want free stuff? Your going to get it all, breast feeding is the least of it. Smile if your a liberal.

  • Posted By: sixpence @ 05/04/2009 7:15:58 PM

    Cheers to all the breastfeeding mom's out there! But seriously, do you really have to put a picture of your boobs on the internet. I find the sick. Good for facebook to actually check this stuff out! Thumbs up. That is the reason why I am on facebook and NOT on myspace

  • Posted By: sixpence @ 05/04/2009 7:13:06 PM

    Cheers to all the moms that are breastfeeding! But seriously, speaking as a young educated female, do you really need to put a picture of yourself breastfeeding, a by the way very special and private moment, on the internet. I find the sick!
