Respect is earned regardless of the amount of clothing male or female.

Are you asking if naked pics are damaging the image of women in the hobby?

The answer to that is yes - but only if the person looking is a backward chauvanist numb nut... the rest of us that don't equate your status/respect to your image and the ability you have in keeping animals... nudity is icing on the cake.
Image is a lot. If the first thing I happen to see of a newly joined member is nudity I've already begun to form an impression of them. We all do it. It takes 5 seconds in meeting someone to make an impression.

Jerry made good points.

I think it's sad that women generally hide themselves online and when they do post pictures. Maybe just holding a snake or other reptile and some guy does what Jerry says "oh there's a reptile in that pic?" It turns it sexual and we shouldn't do that. I'm sure it's nice to get a compliment but at the same time I'm sure those women would like to just be equal in that moment.
