Of course...:-) It's mostly men who are in charge of making movies and they don't want their lovers staring at men the way they stare at women. There plenty of men who think it's completely natural (yeah, sure..biology for them) and acceptable for men to to leer at nude women, but immoral for women to do the same to men. I like these men to walk around, for one day, each wearing a pair of tight leotards....:-)
