There are textbook definitions for all kinds of words that we don't take them for what they "mean"...DO we need to start a new thread about this?

Whether or not Websters says nude means absolutely no clothing, but in the real world, if someone has their boobies uncovered, they are considered nude..

If a baby is running around without his diaper but has his shirt on, they say he is running around naked....

Quick question, Why does your release grant co-copyright to the model? That is unusual for professional photographers, except when being hired by a client (work-for-hire), and in that case, the person/company hiring gets sole copyright ownership. Just curious
