How do some claim to find sex and nudity, when it comes to television, offensive?

Well then, if some of us claim to the FCC or whatever that church and prayer, when it comes to television, is offensive, then shouldnt the FCC back us too and penalize any network for airing such things considered offensive to the some of us?

I think it's time to create a ransome. lol.

Nudity and sex should be televised as long as church and prayer is! That would be equality on television right there.

Or else:

If there cant be nudity and sex televised on television, then there cant be any church and prayer televised on television either.

Yeah, we all got hands to control what we watch on T.V. so allow it all I say.

What does watching sex do to a kid? vs What does watching violence do to a kid? vs What does watching Church and prayer do to a kid?

If anyone wants to say TV is influencial, then wouldnt it be better to have the sex and nudity content to create more harmony?--Rather than the violent content which would create choas?--And rather than the church and prayer content which would brainwash because it's telling one lies to follow as if they are truths to follow?

Some people don't like to flip through channels and have a dick staring at them every other channel. Some people don't want to see tits while changing the channel to a family show, while watching with their kids. And some people don't want to stick their kids up in their rooms because a show the parent wants to watch has nudity in it. But then there's people who do like seeing nudity in everything they watch, even commercials. There's no one solution here, and there's no quick fix. Personally, I don't care either way. There's always going to be someone against it, and always someone for it. America is too diverse to have a be all and end all solution in something viewed as widely as television.

Meh, and some people don't want to see commercials but theyre still there. Seriously though, I hate commercials, I have to mute them if I'm watching something.

If you want tits and ass watch HBO, Showtime, or Cinimax. That's what they're there for..

If you want to go there...

No one who wants to see nudity and sex should have to pay extra for it just because some people act like they cant turn their own T.V. off or turn their own T.V to another channel upon seeing what they think is offensive content on television.

It's like people's opinions have been costing other people, who dont share the same opinon, money that could have been saved or went to, say, the poor or whatever.

Plus, howbeit that those people that find nudity and sex on televison so offensive dont find violence on television offensive? So they have a prob with seeing nudity and sex (which they could turn the channel from), but they dont have a prob with seeing someone get killed (which they wont turn the channel from 9 times out of 10)?

Hell, if certain people got a problem with seeing what goes on in nature on television, then they should just go and hang themselves so they wont be apart of having to see what's apart of nature, here on earth, on a television they could turn the channel to or turn off.

Some dont want their kids watching it so they call it offensive. But they some damn liars because it's not offending their kids nor them. If they are actually offended by 'their kids watching nudity and sex', then they should be a parent and just teach their kids to not watch it. If they cant simply teach their kids to just not watch something, then that's their problem. They shouldnt take their lack of being a parent towards their kids or lack of being able to teach their kids things out on the rest of us.

It is something though when certain people may openly say things to kids like "life brought into this world is the most beautiful thing", but they wont openly say to those kids "having sex, which can bring life into this world, is the most beautiful thing" when in fact it sure does take sex to bring life into this world.

The facts of life surely cant harm any kid.

And then we've got the morally religious type folks--where it sure is something--because there is violent content throughout the bible. Do these kinds of folks think that the violent content in the bible is a sinful abomination or not? If not, why not? Do they think that the violent content throughout the bible is suitable for children? If they got time to get the FCC to penalize networks for the content of nudity and sexual content, then why dont these morally religious folks have the very bible censored? And censor it not just for their sake, but mainly for the kids sake they're teaching it to. Hell, does the God they beleive in got more against sex than violence? I thought these morally religous folks taught that a sin is a sin in God's eyes, where no sin is greater than the other.

You're barking a lot and not really saying anything.

Maybe you need to do some research before you come here and bitch.


There is no reason to have nudity and sex on TV as much as you think there should be. People don't walk around naked all the time. 75% of people I know don't get laid more then twice a week. If you want sex and nudity stick to the internet.

Hear hear King.

Everytime this issue comes up, whether it's Janet Jackson's iron hooter or some hottie on NFL Monday Night Football the rallying cry is the same, "Kids see way worse every day on cable or at school or on the evening news"...and so on.

This completely misses the point. Broadcast TV is meant to be "family entertainment." A term widely open to interpretation, but it has nothing to do with Christians or the religious right. Families should have something to watch on TV with out a big floopy boob being thrust in their face with out warning.

Just because kids can see it "here and there" does not mean they should see it "everywhere."

I'd write more, but I have to go download some Bukkakke vids.

There is no reason to have equality and civil rights in America as much as you think there should be. People don't walk around being equal all the time. 75% of people I know don't even practice being equal more then twice a week. If you want equality and civil rights stick to other countries.

Not exactly the same, but I'm sure you see my point. Things will look a lot different 40-50 years from now.

To be clear, I think nudity should be allowed, not sex (at least not yet, and by sex I mean anything that basically implies it as well). There is a big difference between tasteful nudity and sex. If, I should say when, it is allowed I'm not even saying it will be for the better right away, I'll probably want to watch TV even less because it will probably be over done and annoying. The point for me is that it needs to happen for us to become less repressed as a society. Besides maybe this way more parents will actually try and controll their children.

And sheesh, I knew a kid who grew up in a nudist collony, he was fine, I really don't see what the big deal is either way.

This is what I think right now, my views can change rapidly, maybe you can change my mind.
Cheers.

I think there is a huge difference between nudity and sex. A big chunk of the world grows up exposed to nudity daily. Heck, we're all exposed to our own nudity everyday.

IMO - I'd rather have my kids exposed to a topless\nude rather then a dressed couple dry humping on the kitchen counter.

That being said, I don't think a culture can change overnight. It wouldn't be right to flip a switch and say nudity is ok on broadcast TV tomorrow. And I think any movement towards allowing nudity on TV needs to be regulated to control the sex that comes with it. We have a lot to learn from most of Europe.

Sex in America has everything to do with who becomes President. One of the many building blocks to becoming President is dealing with voters, specifically the 'new' or immigrant vote. (new citizens)

For instance, if sex and titties and stuff are on the tube all the time, people get bored with sex and don't have any. This means less children born in the U.S hence higher immigration rates. This is good for the Democrats especially if are non-Judeo-Christians or people who don't care about religion.

Less sex on t.v makes people more wanting and having more sex. More U.S born bambinos, lesser immigration. This is good for the Republicans to start building that religious base early on and having what they want, less mass produced sex.( *cough* porn)

In closing, the Democrats would rather watch nudity and import foreigners to do the jobs they won't do and have less sex and the Republicans would rather fuck like rabbits, cease immigration and pay off the immigrant vote to do the jobs they won't do.

Well my view is that there should be no form of government censorship AT ALL when it comes to speech, or sex. The government has no place in the words that comes out of my mouth or what i see and do when it comes to sex. Physical rape is a different matter, so don't bother mentioning it in any kind of counter arguement. If a lady wants to walk around with no top, i couldn't care less. If a guy walks around with no top i couldn't care less. If a woman walks around with no pants I couldn't care less. If a man walks around with no pants i couldn't care less. If someone wants to show a boobie on television more power to them.

Television is a novelty. Television is a tool. Television is NOT a necessity. Television is NOT a babysitter. If you don't want your child to watch TV you can do MANY things to prevent them from doing so. Some of these things include, but are not limited to, the following: the V-Chip, Keeping the set in a lockable cabinet, Teaching your children, SUPERVISING your children, educating your children, or even *gasp* not buying a television.

Nudity is natural. Sex is natural. In this country a boobie is a taboo. Everyone has nipples. If you don't believe me, lift up your shirt, you'll probably find atleast 2. Everyone has a butt, check it out in the mirror. Females have a vagina, this is no secret. Males have a penis and two testicles (in most cases). Should we have dogs wear pants? They walk around with it flopping every which way. Children may get a giggle, but it gets old pretty quick, and it's no longer a "problem".

I think men are just afraid they'll no longer be able to get a hard-on if they see boobies and twat everywhere they look. I can't speak for the women. What do people think, that nudity on television will suddenly turn everyone in the country into sex-crazed maniacs? Or is it that everyne will be come desensitized and no one will ever have sex again and the human race will die out? I have news for those people, keeping sex taboo does both of those things already. There's men who would kill to see a titty, and men who are so ashamed to unzip their pants that they'll never be with a woman.

If a threat of the government looms in the minds of it's citizens, are those citizens truly free? I say no.

My opinion is that parents should just block certain channels that they deem inapropriate. In fact, I believe that there already are services that rate programs and can block them. The whole FCC thing is really pointless.

thinktank

honestly, good parents can find far better things to do with their children than watch television. If you're raising your kid to sit around and watch television, you're messing them up far worse than them having an understanding of female anatomy at an early age.
