American media "acceptibility"

[cogsandspigots]

One thing that has always bothered me about American media is how "acceptable" somethings are and are not.

Let me give you en example:
Violence and Killing is more acceptable than drug use. But drug use is more acceptable than nudity and sex.

What the hell?


If someone told me they just had sex my reaction would be something like "Hey, good for you"

If someone told me they just killed someone I would scream, run the other way, and call the police.

scare tactics.

So if you would say "Hey, good for you" if someone had sex, and since sex is the worst perceived thing in American Media according to you, what would you say to someone who took a shot of heroine? derp

That's because the last generation is not used to the openness of sex that is in our generation. To them it is still taboo, dirty, disgusting and is not acceptable in media or anything

SKYN Condoms: The Closest Thing to Wearing Nothing

It's a cultural thing.

Over here, people couldn't care less about nudity, but violence is a big deal.
Drug use/dealing isn't too important unless it's something like a major drug dealer getting caught.

Honestly I don't know... they show boobies and vaginas on HBO but no penises.

Obese Soccer moms that happen to be heavy christian worshipers with upper lip hair, who don't want their children to see such filthy, male anatomy.
