If you're going to make a political statement about being naked in public, you should at least have a dick that's bign enough to be visible; otherwise, it just looks like you're overcompensating.

the Ingrid Bergman pictures made it worthwhile. Especially the one of her in the bathtub.
As to the rest, getting your life stuck in 'adolescent' is not refreshingly youthful it's just sad. Other than the flamethrower. That, is cool, at any, age.

They aren't hurting anyone else, so good for them for living the life they want to live, and who cares about the judgment!

I don't care what they do. Just don't see why it has to be inflicted on normal, civilized human beings.

If you're not craving judgment (at least hopefully supportive of your decision), why post your photos?

"They" didn't it was someone's photography project, "they" were interesting subjects.
Meade, lighten up FFS, you're turning into Victor Meldrew.

True, but they all appear to be willing participants in that project, even including comments with the images.
FWIW, I say more power to them; there's nothing wrong with nonconformists.

They are unique, just like everyone else.

A few of them might be non-conformists, but many are just stuck conforming to the norms of a group they joined as adolescents.
Skinheads and Mods, for example, are not non-conformists; they are just conforming to the style of a particular group. An Elvis impersonator is most definitely not a non-conformist.
This is a non-conformist. They may be others who now imitate
him but he expresses a personal style both aesthetically and artistically which is completely egregious:
And he didn't get 'stuck' imitating some other people's style his 20s.
