Obviously spawned from another thread .. but i am curious about something :

there is something that has always disturbed the hell out of me about americans....


Violence = good
Nudity = bad

this certainly sets the USA apart from Canada and most of europe.

(in japan violence = nudity so we'll leave them out of this)


what the fuk is it where people think violence and gore is kosher but a pair of tits or an ass are offensive ?

this has come up before but i want to know widescale ... are all americans like this ? Is it part of the cultural upbringing ?

i really find the make war not love thing disturbing as hell.

i can understand that some kids are too young to have the facts of life explained to them ... but by the same token they are too young to see violent images - its about the same thing - the maturity level to understand.

i have a 6 year old .. we never freaked out about nudity ... we dont flaunt it but we arent prissy about it either .. he know enought to keep his pants on in public and that was the goal.

but in a movie i'd much rather he sees the natural images of peoples bodies .. than people getting their bodies ripped apart.

even if it is a kissing scene .. petting - whatever .. i'm far more prepared for him to see that and explain it - rather than acts of horrific violence perpetrated by people on each other.

what the fuck is wrong with americans ???


this is one Canadian standing alone against the rest of you lot ... give me your worst .. WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR DEAL ???
