Yep the CW is known for plying trade for the teen to 25 so there is plenty of skin going on. I wondered if it was a network thing or because of age but Somerhalder is the same age as Jensen and Misha has got shirtless twice this season.
To be honest I would be kind of Po'd if this change was some kind of call from the home front of his 'Real' life. Jensen and Dean are two separate entities, two different personas and I would hate to think he would compromise the integrity of Dean and compromise his well established character in order to appease his totally separate private life so I hope that's not the case cause to me kissing is a far more intimate act than shirtless ness, you sign up for a gig like Dean then these are the jobs you do. As has been the case you skew a characters reality and break the disbelief when you start pandering to outside forces who ever they maybe, it's whole ass or nothing (not literally) when it comes to a character like Dean. No half assing it.
Also being meek now would be like waving to the horse as it ran the opposite way from the stable you were locking. I've seen Ten Inch Hero and SPN so even I have seen them both shirtless and they have nothing to be hiding. Also it's on film for celluloid eternity already it will be seen and commented on by people who know your kids. I was kind of worried it was a self conscience thing on Jensen's part because he's older I hope that's not the case either to be honest I don't care how firm or not Dean's body is and I don't think Dean would either in that situation he would be to occupied by getting with a chick from his good dreams.
