I think we should see breasts on telly more often, not less. It's a boob, for gawd's sake. It's the fact that it can ONLY be bared as part of a "shocking moment" that makes me feel creepy about North American Puritanism, not the fact of a naked tit.
Puts me in mind of the furor in Boston a few years back when a couple of radical dykes got shirtless on a mattress "float" and simulated sex. Oh, the outrage within the community. Mostly, as far as I could tell, from guys who never think twice about taking their shirts off and snogging their boyfriends in public ... :-)
I totally agree. The fact that it is such an overblown issue is ridiculous. The Europeans are laughing at America... again. When Clinton was caught experimenting with cigars, everyone back home said, "what's the biggie?" There is no hesitation in showing someone getting a few teeth knocked out with a hockey-stick, so what's a harmless tit or two?... Nice ones at that!
