And there are pretty people out there from both sexes.

It is telling of out culture that these photos of protests are considered tiltilating.

To me the funniest of the series were the butt shield towels, and the image of otherwise nekkid men wearing combat boots.

I see them as photos of people, period.

As to sexualizing a photo, truly, really, eye of the beholder...
