Does using nudity help PETA get their message across?
they are famous for using nudity or at least partial nudity when promoting themselves, is this a good idea or does it make them look cheap?
I don't know about getting their message across, but it makes people take notice.
It gets attention...but negative. Arguably all publicity is good publicity. Though I don't agree with that, especially in this circumstance. I imagine a lot of people lose respect for them, and therefore making them much less likely to pay attention to what they are supposedly trying to stand for.
It's a funny thing about human nature. We will put up with so much, even be sympathetic and take notice--until they go too far. Then they not only lose support, they garner disgust and unfortunately damage their cause. We end up rejecting what might be a very valid message because we have come to hate the messengers.
Yes, for sure. More people, especially fit, healthy, good looking people, should get naked for all causes. Sex sells, and regardless of personal preference it is the advertisers' obligation to promote their clients product with what sells
personally i think their use of celebrities and nudity weaken their ideoligy. also how would a person from northern canada survive without eating meat and wearing hides for clothing. to me peta is like a rich person club with ideas that only work for those who can afford it.
It makes them look cheap, but it does explain the rise in PETA membership among males 18-27
It just feels that the concerned individuals cannot think beyond nudity to emphasize their point of view.
Or Alternatively they are looking for any reason to showcase their 'bods'- using PETA of course as a raison d'etre.
Nope. I've been a vegetarian for 14 years, and have nothing to do with PETA. They're extremists and taint the image of vegetarians and vegans and give us a bad name. As far as I can tell they give negative connotations to the entire movement, and I'm embarassed by their disgusting displays and combativeness.

Why are so many people "offended" by nudity?Does anyone else ever wonder why we are so offended by nudity? We are born that way and yet many people are repulsed by seeing another human being naked. As a society we seem strangely tolerant of seeing beautiful people’s flesh and less so if...

Well yesterday was a very interesting day. I was having lunch in a restaurant with my friend and as we chatted away, a naked man walked into the restaurant and ordered his meal. Of course people were looking but nobody dared asked him anything or confront him as he was a big fella, about 6'11 with...
