Risqué Art in *my* QC? How much is too much?
Nodaisho:
I was somewhat surprised when I saw the comic in question, just because it seems further than Jeph has gone before. There were beer bottles blocking them in the past, which cover even less, but that isn't someone touching them.
Oh, and I found something entertaining. Check the comment on the comic here: http://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=108
I would say it has gotten more risque. Not that Jeph can't change his mind, but it is just interesting to look back at what someone said years ago and see how much of it came true.

I'm content to keep reading no matter how much or how little nudity Jeph uses. It's just the waiting that I can't stand. If he would just come out and say, "this is where I will set the limit," that would be great.

If we play the game of thinking of the characters as if they were real people, how would we treat them? Well, we probably wouldn't stare at them in the locker room.
Artfully concealing the R-rated bits is a way of preserving the dignity of non-existent people. And heaven knows their dignity is already compromised enough! Getting stuck in air shafts, flipping out on someone's lawyer, making a suicide joke to Faye ... these fictional people need every little bit of respect we can spare.

I agree wholeheartedly. I like the covering up, because I feel like I can relate these characters to other people in my life. Like my brother. And if I ever had to see his wang, I'd vomit. And choke on said vomit. And maybe die. So, if nudity MUST be present, fine, I understand. But so far so good.

If they were real people, we probably wouldn't follow them around every day and watch their every interaction.
But they aren't, and we do, so your reasoning is highly suspect at best. :|

Obviously we have two very different ideas about what constitutes a healthy social life.
