everybody else?


I'm trying to figure out how you went from naked bodies and sex to drugs and
welfare. I think that you're trying to establish a causality. If so, I'm
missing the reasoning.

But I still see this as a shame issue, and you've provided no evidence to
the contrary. If you're not hiding your body, or your eyes from the bodies
of others, out of shame, then what is your motivation?

Now, there are things of which one should be ashamed. Violence is one such.
And this seems to play a large role in your tirade. Perhaps you should
look to the violence to which people are subjected through the media as a
possible cause for the types of abuses you're describing. Because you seem
to be describing a bunch of people acting violently. I don't see you
describing the collapse of society as a game of strip poker.

You're so busy trying to get people to be ashamed of their bodies...think of
what you could accompish if you tried instead to get people to be ashamed
of violence.

However, it's obscene when you are watching the SuperBowl with a half-dozen

over, the silence from those kids was deafening.

I want to introduce my son to the ways of women on my terms, not MTV's and
CBS's. I hope the FCC fines their asses into bankruptcy.


I spared myself the shock by not watching the superbowl, so I guess I
won't be part of the lawsuit class.

I think one commercial's revenue covers the fine the FCC can levy
something like 30 bazillion times over.

I object more to the crap "music" than to some trivial nudity.
