But the US law states:
Under federal law (18 U.S.C. §2256), child pornography is defined as any visual depiction, including any photograph, film, video, picture, or computer or computer-generated image or picture, whether made or produced by electronic, mechanical, or other means, of sexually explicit conduct, where:
The production of the visual depiction involves the use of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct; or
The visual depiction is a digital image, computer image, or computer-generated image that is, or is indistinguishable from, that of a minor engaging in sexually explicit conduct; or
The visual depiction has been created, adapted, or modified to appear that an identifiable minor is engaging in sexually explicit conduct.
So according to this, as someone asked above pictures of real naked children Are 100% Legal as long as they are not depicted in a sexual manner, "sexually explicit conduct". - So naked kids in a nudest colony or as an art form for photography is 100 % legal according to the above it seems to me.edit on 11-4-2011 by JohnPhoenix because: edit
Perhaps, if these fetishes were provided for, there'd be a lower instance of actual crimes committed?
If you want to keep a pedophile away from kids, why not show them that there are legal adults that can provide for their fantasies?

I agree with you but prostitution is illegal also, in most states.
Which I disagree with completely! (Prostitution being illegal)
