Wanted: Nude female web coders
A Buckinghamshire company is looking to recruit "a number of female web coders" who are prepared to work as nature intended in a "warm and private" naturist office environment. Nude House provides software which creates "hot-spots" on website photos, as explained here. As well as naked sales people tempting customers to buy, …

RE: Discrimination
That isn't the point: male/female only positions are permitted by various exceptions when there is legitimate requirement for a person of one gender - say the personal care of a particular individual which may be quite "sensitive" at times. Web coding is not one of them.
It also invalidates their assertion that the naturist environment is not of a sexual nature. If it was simply about (literally) letting it all hang out then gender would be an irrelevance. The fact that positions are being advertised specifically for females indicates that this is nothing to do with a "relaxed" environment and all about the proprietor saying "Let's get some naked totty in here".

yeah, b***cks...
I go to the same beaches where naturists go. My dad used to refer to them as "my favourite marine mammal". They are the best indicator that the beach is clean and not crowded.
Anyway, back to subject - if the naturist beach population is to be taken as representative of the "marine mammal" species, than the age discrimination is opposite -it is a "no young females" environment. It is all grannies, granddads (and on the beach - their grandchildren). The 10-40 age bracket both male and female on a naturist beach is usually wearing something.

Re: Only females allowed
Par for the course. Here in Australia, Sections 34 - 35 of the so-called "Equal" Opportunity Act allow for discrimination where there is a "genuine occupational requirement" that a person be of a particular gender.
What that translates to in reality is that if someone advertises for "female only" nobody bats an eyelid, but if someone were to advertise for "male only", there would be a national outcry and the judges would rule that Sections 34 and 35 "don't apply in this case".
Don't you just love the monstrous double-standards perpetrated by the feminists over the last 30 years?

Actually...
Having just commented about the CRT monitor, I have looked at their website, which can only be described as having been designed with Netscape Navigator Gold... So I believe they are possibly trapped in a time warp...
Which might explain how the naturists they show appear to actually look vaguely attractive, when all the ones I have ever seen before are the kind of people you'd prefer to keep their clothes on!

RE: Netscape Navigator Gold
I think the site pre-dates that ... the weird mix of hyperlinks with text and hyperlinks with bad pictures is awesome in a way that eludes me.
The meta tags give their intentions more that the text on the page, and prove that they don't use spell checkers:
description: "Nude-House combines real houses filled with naked ladies and the clients wanting to photograph, paint, draw and paint upon them. A bit kike a permanent Naked-Office to bond the workers more.
keywords: "Naked young girls. Nude young ladies. Female nudity. Au naturel, bare, bare-skinned, bare breasted, bared, barren, defenseless, denuded, disrobed, divested, exposed, helpless, in dishabille, leafless, natural, nude, open, peeled, raw, stark-naked, starkers, stripped, threadbare, unclad, unclothed, unconcealed, uncovered, undraped, undressed, unprotected, unveiled, vulnerable, in one's birthday suit, in the buff, in the raw, naked as a jaybird, without a stitch"
The grammar is bad as well: "The other systems that can be sold are listed on the site Nightingale Services but we encourage non-nudists to visit Songbird but we aim customers at Graphic-Links"
how many but's?
I might be wrong, but the "Other systems that can be sold" seems to be a very expensive way of doing image-maps in HTML that looks worse than if you did it yourself.

Does each member of staff get a new chair?
From their website:
"Material will be provided for you to sit on that you should use all the time and get new clean versions whenever needed. You replace the material with the new and leave the soiled versions in the collection hamper which is dealt with each day."
This doesn't seem entirely serious.

The downsides
This is one of the things that's put me off naturism: it's not the being without clothes bit perse (I can see how in some ways that could be quite liberating), it's the unhygenic part of spending all day without underwear! Personally I'd need easy access to regular shower facilities...

Monday 4th April 2011 13:43 GMT Why Not?
Yes they desperately need a decent web developer
I'm not talking about a dressed one, male or female.
Maybe its me but if they are selling a visual web technology you would of thought they would have spent more than 30 seconds on a website.
Its a bit like Michael Foot starting a tailors.
£2500 grand for an instructable like overlay system, which isn't exactly very pretty. Unlike their salesperson on their website.
I did check the date 3 times!

porn photo studio not software company
i think it's actually a xxx photo studio and the software company is just a front.
proof: look at the pro lighting reflector in the background, here:

who has that kind of lighting equipment in a bona-fide software development office?

@ naked on furniture, etc
Sheesh. Didn't any of you actually view the website? It says quite clearly on one of their six pages (a couple more images of nekkid girls to be found, too) that they provide things to put on the chairs before sitting, which are disposed of each daily and changed as often as necessary. Good grief, you're an incredibly lazy bunch of commentards.

Let me check
This guy is offering "positions" in his "web design" office... but won't employ anyone ("You are not employed but receive payment from me only for results achieved."). And said payment is 20% of what the customer pays. Not to mention that the operator of this... thing
seems to have no knowledge of HTML or web design but for the ability to "save as HTML" in his word processor.
Yeah. Right. Looks totally legit.
The only clever trick here is that by posing as a web design thinggie he weeds out most of the old ladies who seem to make the bulk of naturists these days.
Say, how do I build MY harem of young naked slaves?

Hidden pages...
Hm, Google can link you to these pages. Clearly they have their fingers in many pies...
(even more NSFW)
http://nude-house.com/females.html
http://nude-house.com/new%20girls.html
"You will be nude throughout the day in my place in Amersham - situated at the end of the Metropoitan underground line - later to be moving into London as we grow to many girls. The future girls will be escorts of a very high calibre - so you can try to set the standards for these.
At the start you will help me plan the future operations of the company and try out different methods to earn money. ... You will get paid a large proportion of what you earn - as much as £250 per two hour sessions with customers. What you earn depends on what can be raised from customers. You will be expected to please the customers and all that you earn in excess of the rate charged to them will be yours to keep for yourself."

Didn't know it was legal there.
Huh. Learned something today. Hadn't realized prostitution was legal in England. Interesting. (No wonder they think Americans are uptight prudes, well not counting parts of Nevada anyway.)
"skidmarks"
No TP in England? TMI re nude desk jobs: If the person has proper attention to detail wrt personal hygiene, there's no reason a seat cover shouldn't stay visibly clean (not counting germs) all day unless the lady has health problems or is on the rag or something. Just because men don't pay much attention to keeping themselves clean, doesn't mean that ladies have that problem. Women are like cats (yes, it's true), in that they keep themselves clean. It's sort of biologically necessary in order to prevent infection, since the female systems in that region are a bit more complicated (with far more things to go wrong, like a high-strung sports car or some damn thing) compared to the comparatively trouble-free male systems.
BTW - like a lot of you, I suspect (yes you do, 'fess up) - I do happen to have personal experience with nude working ;) although not as a hooker and not (recently) in front of big beige CRT's lol. :)
Anyway...
*If* the ad had been legit, although probably a fun idea for you fellas :) to contemplate, the reality of such a work environment wouldn't have been very practical for 2 reasons:
1. Lack of pockets (for keys, ID, money, credit cards, small weapons, meds, girlie-things). Especially for a public office/work setting. Not all ladies favor purses these days (too easy to get stolen) whereas pockets are a bit more secure and less likely to lose things from or "now where did I put my purse" moments.
2. Inability to make quick temperature-control adjustments. When have you ever seen a bunch of people, particularly females, where there aren't some of them are complaining about being cold while others are saying it's way too hot. Clothing allows individuals to fine-tune their temperature comfort range without making other people too cold/hot.
If that ad had been legit, that boss would have gotten tired *really* quick of the ladies inevitably bickering about what the thermostat should be set at. :)

Ok, ok, ok...
Why don't we just collectively elect one of our own number to "go deep". By that I obviously mean get them to call the number/use the contact email form, make som enquiries, hell, maybe even apply for a position if it still all seems a bit iffy/too good to be true. We could start The Register Undercover Investigation Team (we can work on the name to come up with a better acronym later).
With that in mind, may I be the first to say, "LET'S BLOW THE LID CLEAN OFF THIS THING!" (actually blowing of lids, optional!)
A/C because sometimes there really is safety in numbers, particularly when it comes to pointing the finger.

Better than that work at home scheme, I mean job I have...
"We expect a good salesperson, working full-time, to sell at least one system a day - so you earn £10,000 a month. You can arrange to work only part-time, if you wish." - wow, that's probably more than they pay the folks who do coding for them...ah, to be naked an rich - I'll raise a pint to that!
