A question for the players from the US

[Drakhoan]

As I'm not from the US I've noticed a difference in things like TV programs etc that originate out of the US. I was curious just how the American culture is set up. It seemed ok on US made tv shows to show just about as much gore as you'd like, decapitation, disembowelment etc. forget plain old shooting and stabbing there seems to be almost no limit to the level of gore that can be aired.

On the opposite side the camera pans off to the sky every time a person disrobes or even the hint of any sexual content is brought in.

Is the US kinda stuck in a puritanical era that has never come to an end? I'm not attempting to flame here just to be careful how I word it but it just seemed to me that there is some kind of imbalance.

Since a child I have noticed the difference in US progamming. Other countries censor less and have much more lax sexual norms. Don't know why that is, but I know one thing... as a man less censorship is welcom on my set (but I'll continue to pass on it if I have to pay for it through HBO or whatnot)!

As warriors see many things in thier life that the ordinary man does not I can imagine your awe. In my youth I met soldiers from other countries and they had a different sensorship on the matters of life. Now that I have had many of the same experiences I understand. If anything soldiers tend to value and appreciate life more than the average person because they know how easily it can be taken.

The media and entertainers of hollywood in the US are a breed of their own. Most of them arent worth their salt and are so far out of touch with reality they might as well live on the moon.

Got to ask why one should not judge a people by what they find entertaining? After all TV/Movies are forms of entertainment. The shows on TV are paid for by sponsors, who hope to have a chance to sell something, by putting on a show that most people want to watch. Movies are made to entertain, and more importantly turn a profit. You don't create a move intentionally that no one wants to pay for the privilege of seeing... If one chooses to watch porn you are often deemed a Pervert, hence the need to watch in in private in many areas.If one chooses to watch graphic murder, and death there is nothing Unusual about that, you are not labeled a killer... Hence why not judge us by what we enjoy? Just be aware that I've yet to find a country where everyone chooses the exact same form of enjoyment...

Got to wonder, a little about what the people enjoy who are reading this post? After all it's ask in a forum dedicated to modern war. One can assume they to enjoy death, as it is hard to have a war without death!

By this rationale all of the world would be in serious trouble. Murder and other heinous acts have been considered entertainment at one time or another… real life not pretend.

Here on planet Earth violence and gore are a part of life. In 3rd world countries the killing of others is a daily norm. In the history of this planet violence and gore have been everywhere... middle ages, countless revolutions of Europe's royalty, attempt at genocide of the Jewish, viciousness of Mongolian raids, and countless others. Those are just simply off the top of my head. To judge a country on its fiction is absurd.

Now now, lets be honest here shall we? Tell me in your free country if one should happen to watch child porn what exactly happens? You see America is not really free, true you may be able to watch more things, but America still has its Forbidden subjects. In America one also watches what the goverment permits, and if you choose to watch what the goverment forbids you go to jail. Shrug that simple truth applies to much of the world...

America is not a free country because you can't watch CHILD PORNOGRAPHY? I hope you are kidding here. Certainly I do not agree with where American freedom is today, I don't want freedom if watching child porn is what that means. I think you may have a slight problem. Being allowed to take someone else’s freedom does not make you free, it makes you a bigot.

Even though most sexual things on TV is still taboo, society is rapidly going off the rails here with a general attempt to abolish morality, but judgment will come, and it may be sooner then we would like to think.

Remember what the Romans watched for entertainment??

been waiting for a thread like this my whole life!!!
First, unfortunately, the only type of anything sexual we are allowed to see now is man on man, or women on woman. The days of man on woman and vice versa is over. Our Government is brainwashing our youth, to think that this is the normal. If you believe In Christianity, our constitution, or a believer in one man, one woman, then you are a biggot!!! This is all part of the depopularization plan put forth by the real people running our country. If they can get more and more people to abandon the male/female relationship, then in the future there would be less people. There's allot more where this came from!!! WAKE UP AMERICA!!! THE REVOLUTION WILL COME!!!

True, watch anything and you are most likely to see just a gay sex scene in the show...it is the new normal now. Crazy to think how things have changed in 10 years.

You clearly don't know what it means to be "liberal". Why don't you stop trying to screw the poor and middle class, stop trying to destroy the environment, stop trying to defund everything, and stop trying to legislate what goes on in the bedroom? I want no part of your life, stop trying to legislate mine.
