The Daily Newds


  • A party in the Maldives thrown by a British businessman featured topless dancers, prompting an outcry from critics.
    "This party was completely over the top," said Maldivian Democratic Party spokesman Ahmed Moosa. "Maldives people are easily shocked and strong in their Muslim faith," he said. Critics argue that the Buddha was incongruous in Muslim country "Scantily clad women and excessive drinking are not culturally acceptable."
  • Spencer Tunick is planning his next nude photo shoot in Mexico City, to take place in an still undisclosed location on April 28-29.
  • Nudism promotes body acceptance and allows individuals to realize that the normal human body is not "perfect". The cosmetic surgery industry would rather people believe that an improvement in body image can only be achieved with a physical improvement in the body.
    “So much attention is directed to men’s sexuality issues; we have all seen countless commercials on drugs and therapy devoted to improving men’s sexuality. Unfortunately, very little is discussed regarding women’s sexuality issues,” (Cynthia) Figueroa-Haas said. “I strongly believe that my research shows that interventions such as cosmetic plastic surgery can address these sorts of issues for some women. For example, those women who may have breast changes due to nursing or from the inevitable natural aging process. These women may not feel as attractive, which could ultimately negatively impact their levels of self-esteem and sexuality.”
