"You must not have any children."
I do, I have 2 children, who I take to museums frequently, and so far, neither of them have shown any of the repressed rage or violent tendancies, or trauma symptoms over having seem statues and paintings depicting the human body.
"Would you want your 8 year old watching."
My kids don't watch football.
"Why can't the superbowl be a family program?"
Good question. I don't know.
"Many of the commercials were disgusting."
Well, what these Corporate clods paid for airtime for screening them was disgusting, no doubt.

You don't see a difference between a statue with breasts shown and a man walking up to a woman, tearing her top off exposing her breasts?

I've been studying Renaissance art with my 8-year-old...and if you don't "get" the difference between something like Michelangelo's reverent depiction of the miracle of God's creation, the human body, and the sexed-up, bump-and-grind, borderline violent "I'm gonna get you naked before the end of this song," and how these completely disparate views toward the human body will influence a child...well, I don't get it.
