No, not really. The assumption is toward the uploader having the appropriate permission if it appears to be an amateur image and it has not obvious signs of being a copyright violation. People have been in disagreement about whether images that are "controversial content" should be be held to a higher level of scrutiny. Some people say that we are be biased if we require a higher level of scrutiny for images of naked people. I disagree, but think that we really need to have a higher level of scrutiny for all images with identifiable people. By requiring model consent, we would solve a large part of the problems with the images on Commons.

Do we have specific Commons policies on voyeurism and invasion of privacy?
