Why am I feeling like I need to know what image we're talking about? I scanned through your friends list on DA and found some images that were mature, but saw nothing wrong with any of them.

I, for some reason, have the impression that Americans are promiscuous, when in fact, it seems to be the case that you are the least promiscuous bunch. Sexuality is very taboo in America apparently, and that creates the cultural expectation that sex should follow very specific rules. Violence on the other hand, has almost no limits, as long as certain levels of gore are avoided.

I mean, if you think about horror movies, it is basically the theatrical audience watching a man (typically) go about stalking and murdering people in very gruesome fashions. I sat through the movie 'Hostel' and 'Hostel 2' without looking away once. Not going to describe scenes, but it is pretty incredibly violent from an objective standpoint. Yet we don't protest it.

Alternatively, we have incidents like the wardrobe malfunction that happened in the Superbowl half-time show. For a short period of time, people saw a part of a female's anatomy. More ruckus was made about that than a movie where people were tortured and kidnapped, then murdered. There's something bizarre about that.
