Fact from fiction, truth from diction. In the US that is one of the biggest long-standing hypocrisies, especially since the 80s. When it comes to sex the US is like a man before the mirror that forgets what he looks like the moment he turns away from it. Sex is officially outwardly seen as evil and heinous, thus the Janet Jackson Super Bowl snafu, or the constant complaints about Hooters. It is like sex is to be scorned, don’t look at it but it is OK to reference when selling anything from shoes, burgers, breath mints, men’s hair coloring, etc, plus it is almost a staple when setting up a sitcom joke or punch line. And with a wink and a nod you have to be getting tons of it because of no one see you as desirable enough to boink you must be a geek, troll, mud duck, or worse. Your worth seems to be tied up in how much someone wants to boink you. It is also strange that those who are OK seeing the bodies in the correct position doing the correct motion but just covered with a sheet are so put off by seeing it with out the sheet and all the action up close and personal, nothing left to the imagination.
Violence on the other hand is OK, we are a nation that was comfortable with the gun fight, slaughtering people etc, long before we were comfortable showing a naked stomach or belly button. This nation was raised with the gun and the violence it produced so violence had a head start.
People say there should not be sex on TV because we have to protect the children’s innocence. That is a bogus claim because some of the dialogue in Prime Time sitcoms would have caused an uproar in my childhood days. Lucy and Ricky never said the world pregnant, you never seen anyone in bed unless they were sick or it was bed time, and references to masturbation, booty calls, and the likes you never heard. You would not see what look to be a woman giving a man a knob job caught on a traffic cam as part of a show. The words boobs and vagina? Never would you have heard those. There is so much sexual context on TV and in the movies because people want to skirt around it because they think of it about once ever 4 minutes just seeing it in all its glory is bad.
