This gentleman has it exactly. Religion (Or, rather, the values derived from same) is why nudity is considered such a big problem.poiumty said:
Violence? Hell, that's all over the Bible- God was hardly afraid to crack a few eggs to make his Eternal omelette, if ya know what I mean.
There is a reason I'm a cynical bastard that doesn't belive in humanity. This is part of that reason.Hollock said:
No, they are consistent. They just don't make any sense.stukov961 said:
here's a question though... I never saw God Of War I on the news back in the day and it has more sex and violence than most of its current peers. What gives?
I think the mentality for people running the industries is that someone's kid is a lot more likely to go and have sex with the neighbor child instead of going on a killing rampage with a chainsaw. It's a bit of a backwords way of looking at it but I feel that's what goes on in their minds.
You can, but it's far from necessary. And anyway it's little more than a comic book style dustcloud.Mcface said:
By movies and TV I meant dramatic fiction, not so much the news. With regards to unforseeable events, like the linebacker's leg or the car crash, the equivalent would be a streaker. They happen all the time at sporting events and no one complains, at least not in the UK, because they know there's nothing the organisers or the TV station can do about it. Janet's nipple slip, however, was clearly set up. With regards to severed limbs and whatnot on news items on terrorists attacks, I've seen news items with naked people being pulled from rivers and rubble after natural disasters. It usually on late, but so is any gore that may be shown.nerdsamwich said:
The Uk is different to the US i guess, more sensible about these things.
now mean phone calls, those are another matter....
Also, i'm not saying i agree with it, its just my explanation of the almost inexplicable fear of nudity in the media
I never understood why violence is more acceptable. The way i see it all human beings will inevitably be exposed to sex and nudity as a result of being a living organism, while some of the more extreme instances of ultra-violence in media are things we may never have been exposed to if they hadn't shown them to us.
I think you'll find that depends on the woman and/or the situation.Nieroshai said:
Nudity, in and of itself, is most definitely not a good thing. I'm all for making it less taboo. For one thing, that'd make it so we're not all so uptight about being naked and seeing other people naked. Maybe that'd help everybody socially too.
americans are weird about sex but dont have anywhere near as much of a problem with violence. in most of the rest of the civilised world its the other way round, go figure.
yeah, because the type of teenager that spends their time diligently hunting down the sex scene in a game is just deep fried in fanny batter.AngelicSven said:
By and large? Religion.
Simple question, simple answer.
If you wondered on the other hand why most RELIGION condemns it, that's perhaps a more complex question. My guess would be a combination of a historical lack of birth control, social resistance to technological change, and the telephone game problem which seems pervasive in most religions older than about a decade.
