Moral Standards: Sex vs Violence

[Alien Allen]

Got to admit, I was shocked to find out mainstream USA stations dont show tits after the 9 o'clock watershed, whats that all about?

The FCC is our Gestapo. Hell they damn near crucified one of the networks for what amounted to a mini flash of Janet Jackson boob during a halftime Superbowl show a while back. It is insane how the mindset of some people are as I said earlier where they tolerate blown up bodies but condemn nudity.

well, no....but it's probably true that you'd have to have taken a lot of drugs to see the truth in the connection :nod:

see....it's the "commie pinko scumbags" of america who see our gov as militaristically opprotunistic.....and it's the "fascist relgious wackjobs" of the right who think that video games promote violence, and that naked people are the pied pipers of moral degradation.....

where those two trains of thought coincide is what this thread is about.....

never mind (sigh)....have another beer bill :24:

I liked your longer posts better. :24:

at least they were easier to read. :jk

the answar to life is simple, re-educate and beat the parents, its all thier fault. They allow the kids to become spoiled, devil-morphed, winey, needy, greedy, fat and other bad things, kids at a young age should be held on a leash till thier 15. Theres a limit to that theory of course, you cannot over hog you child, do 50 percent control and 50 percent freedom for the kids and teach them some fukin common sense parents! *i feel a parent rant coming on*

Really it seems to be an indictment of organized religions who officially are sexophobic despite all of the closet sex. Guns and murder? no problem. Titties? OMG.

Most countries dont have a problem with nudity/human nation. American values have always been a bit different than asian/europeans though. I personally dont think nudity/nakedness should be ashamed.

However, sex and nudity are two TOTALLY different things. Sex for A LOT of people is something SACRED between two people. Fucking with anything "sacred" is NOT a good idea. I understand for some, it may just be a beautiful natrual thing, but for others it is something that SHOULD not be portrayed unless in the proper enviroment.

As for violence, I dont think violence is pretty, but it is in our nature. Jealousy, anger, rage, coldness, they are all part of humanity. The most extreme cases of these evil aspects are portrayed in violence. For most Americans, it is also entertaining, due to the amount of polar-drama that violence USUALLY carries.

I personally dont mind violence in movies and I understand itll happen in real life. It is human nature. As for nudity, a body is a body is a body, I dont see teh big deal. Sex I can understand why some may get upset, but if they DO get upset, most of the time it is avoidable. If it is in the public, it is illegal, and they can have them arrested if it is unavoidable.

Hans, my point is examining a belief system that is more scared of sexuality than of violence. Those who feel more need to shield their children from sex than from violence. It seems a bit twisted to me.

I know, but it is all simply based on upbringings. Typically western society is more protective of creating new bodies than destroying them. I dont really consider the moral standards a big issue, as you can easily cater to both needs without having anyone hurt.
