This in-your-face attitude is indicative of how far our society has traveled along the path of radical individualism—especially when it comes to anything related to sex. Anything else can be restrained—smoking in public, driving without a seatbelt—all on the grounds that it’s good for society. But restrain sexual expression? No way—especially if it makes money.

Not exactly a Nanny State Ping -------- thought you would all be interesested in this.

To: Gabz; Mr. Silverback

Hmmm...I'll have to think on this one a bit. Not sure where I stand on regulating sexual content for adults. I usually love these Chuck Colson pings, but I'm not sure I agree with him on this one.

Of course, I draw the line when kids are exposed to this cr@p on purpose...but then, it was MY job to make sure I wasn't "The Coolest Mom" by indulging my boys in movies and music with gratuitous sex. I still remember the uproar when I popped "Coyote Ugly" out of the video player while they were (secretly) watching it, LOL!

If the 'Bra and Girdle Section' of the Sears Catalog was good enough for their Dad, it should've been good enough for them! ;)

You know, no one demands that we have TVs in our homes. They can be removed. I've done it. And when I have TIME to watch TV...I'm never impressed.

With TIVO and Netflix and computer & video games...do people really watch that much TV anymore? I've lost track.
