Thanks for reposting them.  And kudos to everyone for a very civilized

I don't see any of the three as an "American" version. The placement of

the one woman's hands on the other's breasts was  meant to be seen as 
yielding to temptation. It was not done as a coverup.  Thanks to all 
who commented on these pics and my apologies to anyone who was offended

by the pictures or the conversation. Remember, however, you weren't 
obliged to look, and you didn't  have to read the thread. I am now 
going to delete them from my Photo Net folder.
