Good old NRT actually spent quality childhood time chatting with strippers in their dressing room where his mother prepared for work. I spent a lot of time creating interesting nipple-coverings as an ongoing craft project. On the downside, that made me different from most men. Personality, intelligence, charm: those are the things that stir interest for me. I think I was fortunate to have escaped the morbid shame that seems to drive real perversities and crimiminal tendencies that plague our world. Ted Bundy attributed his overwhelming fascination with pornography as his motivation to kill dozens of young women (though I think he was lying just to sow more evil).
It's a tassled breast, not "dirty pillows" (Stephen King's crazy mother from "Carrie").
MTV was definitely wrong to insult the sensibilities of the mainstream public. They used and abused an American institution for shameless self-promotion in a manner that did not respect understood norms. Slamming them for their disrespect carries more weight than going with the "skin equals dirty" approach.

That's exactly the attitude most posters have expressed. And then for the various entitities involved to lie about the incident and claim it wasn't planned and it was a malfunction is outrageously insulting.

Don't worry. Nobody here is anti sex, but we know what acceptable television and Super Bowl entertainment is, and this wasn't it.
