Why would I need psychiatric counseling? Because I have standards and values?

No, you're describing an unhealthy aversion to something natural (nudity in a non sexual context). That is an indicator of a problem. The severity or type of problem is unclear. A professional would be able to determine the root of this problem given enough time.

Fortunately enough, I paid attention to the description before getting AMV Hell 0. If I hadn't my eyes and ears probably would have started to bleed.

It isn't that I have strong emotional reactions when I'm exposed to nudity, it's that it is very distasteful to me. I don't feel good when I have seen it, not even if it is an art form.

I suppose you are right, I am sensitive to nudity and such in any context. Maybe it's just because I don't like to look at naked girls regardless of the context or if it's anime or not. I'm just a young teen now and plan to hold onto my values for the rest of my life. The only woman I plan to see naked is going to be my wife.

I hadn't known that it was unacceptable to not like nudity. However, I don't care much if it isn't. It's not a problem at all. I think it actually is a good thing not to like nudity.

Good to know I was one of the few people that warned the viewer |:

The anime title is kinda a give away, unless the viewer has never heard of the series.

At any rate, if I remember correctly, I checked the "Other" category for Body Language. Compared to other fanservice videos, it's actually average in terms of content (although, to be safe, I exaggerated a bit in my description). There's no full nudity or even any shots of exposed nipples (at least none that aren't covered). But there is quite a bit of suggestive poses and jiggling...

Maybe I should also check "Fun"?

I notice you're not mentioning naked boys. Have we found an exception, hmm?

Well, if you are trying to assume I'm gay or something, you're wrong.

I don't plan to be looking at any naked guys, either. If you're in any kind of athletics program at your school, you probably shower with other guys when you're done with practice, and that doesn't make you gay.

I wouldn't keep an AMV that had naked guys, if that is what you are asking. That would be gross.

Hey now, it's only gay if the balls touch.

I think I'd call it gay too if a guy got perverse pleasure from seeing another naked guy. I couldn't really care less what another guy would look like naked, though, since I'm a straight guy and already know what it would look like.
