Tell that to the millions of JW teens around the world that live double lives
I get what you're saying. What I'm talking about though is, not 'secret sins', but what is somewhat openly acceptable.

Films with nudity
by neat blue dog ini guess every jw has a different conscience on the matter, and i don't believe any jw publications have ever specifically mentioned nudity in film as being off limits.
of course genitals are out of the question because that's usually relegated to r movies which most good jws don't view.
female toplessness is condoned but not spoken about, as most jws i know have seen titanic and many own it.

Many JWs seem to be okay with butts in a comedic context, but some say even that's off limits. What JW opinions have you encountered? Do rating systems in other countries come into play, for instance a US rated R movie that gets a lower rating elsewhere?

My profile pic is a sheep in wolf's clothing, just a quick doodle drawn on my phone screen.
This is what I and many PIMOs feel like, forced to be in a situation where we are pressured to do damaging things like enforce shunning, uphold an abusive organization and defend it against all reason, and preach dangerous doctrine to the public. Yet we try not to be used as tools to the extent we can manage, try not to do any more harm than we already did when mentally in, and attempt to redress from within to a degree.

After watching A&E Leah Remini on Jehovah Witnesses I am going to stop hiding behind my Avatar
by Still Totally ADD injust got done watching this program and what impress me the most was the bravery of those x-witnesses to sit there on national tv and tell everyone how the wt.
cult affected them.
no hidden faces, no avatar names and no disguise.

Nice to meet you, Winners, I wish I could do the same. Maybe some day, maybe never, but we're still in this together.
* And BTW I do think there's a good chance there are more non-active than active JWs, if you count the loads who are disfellowshipped each year, faders/inactives and PIMOs like myself. If you count only those who are truly non-believers, like PIMOs and 'apostates', etc. then maybe not.

It reminds of that infamously laughable Scientology commercial from 30-odd years ago with all the deliriously happy folks.

Yes, we have freedom of conscience in dress and grooming, so long as it falls within what has been lovingly laid out as acceptable for True Christians.
