Ah America… *sigh*
moar boobies
lol in my country is the exact opposite ;p
it’s* lol
Soviet Russia?
no that would be TV censors YOU!!!!!
It should be that way really! I don’t have a problem with violence – indeed, I’m a big fan of horror movies, etc – but the implication that sex and swearing is worse is absolutely pathetic. A natural act and an expulsion of air, versus actual damage. Seems pretty simple to me.
It could have just been named ‘America’.
UK is about the same. Pick up a Radio Times (it’s a TV guide) and look at the description for a film shown on TV. You can guarantee that a violent film (i.e. Aliens) will have been “cut for language”. WHY?
By the same token, a movie will have an 18 (R) rating if someone says the F word, or boobies are shown. I can’t remember the film, but I saw one that was rated 15 that was really bloody. The violence rivaled that of action/horror movies, but was only a lesser certificate because of the lack of sex or “rude” words. -.-
Don’t forget that (at least for a while anyway, but I was too young to appreciate it) certain movies are given a PG for non-sexual nudity. Ever seen Room With A View? That was an eye-opener. Watched it in the US when I was a kid with some very religious relatives. My parents thought it was hilarious when I got back and told them :/
i think a better example is “the house bunny” being rated pg-13 for ‘language’ and its about how great the playboy bunny’s life is one leaves to go to collage(somehow i can see a dozen problems with this) to help a unpopular group of people the only thing they need to do to be popular(and at collage that apparently their only goal) is to get make-overs and stop studying so much
and michael moores “capitalism a love story” is rated r for ‘language’ but its a documentary on why the economy crashed, it can be a bit to far on making a point at the part where its saying capitalism isnt holy or ordained by god (as many people have said as its main defense back in the day, and occasionally recently)
Could take this same graph, take out on tall bar, name the remaining one marijuana, and the rest other drugs and it would still work.
How ironic.
the american schyzophrenia
actually they curse on tv now
no porn in tv but the strange thing is that the usofa produces mor porn than the rest of the world combined – and that us girls are easy.
Lol, that’s quite true. When you censor something it somehow is more desirable.
The thing is, I can understand why mainstream television would censor porn, as it’s supposed to be titillating and intended for adults. But nudity, “soft” sex scenes that are meant to be lovey in films, even kissing is treated the same way by film censors. That’s what makes me WTF.
In what alternate universe does corpses melting not fit within the category of graphic gore?
Apparently, the thorough research the scientist who made this graph has preformed lead to the conclusion that the sub-category of “corpses melting” is significantly less censored than the category “graphic gore”.
At least, that would be the explanation if this was a scientific paper.
Yeah, I guess they should be the same, probably.
Still, I loved this category – I remember watching the first episode of ‘Fringe’ and thinking “Man, I can’t believe they allow this on network TV” It just seemed so excessive.
I must be getting old or something :/
It really depends on the situation. A “melting” corpse doesn’t necessarily have to be gory.
In holland you can expose everything … expect bad words/images of the queen
I HAVE been expecting them. They are very late. And I spent hours preparing this fine meal.
Haven’t seen a graph on this subject in weeks.
Look out! Sex!
Equal rights for mens and womens bare chests!
Bounce your boobies! Get into the swing!
It’s also missing ‘Any corporate logo’ which gets more censorship than boobies and swearing combined – especially on anything to do with Simon Cowell!
Yeah, it’s a damned shame. Nothing wrong with busting out a (preferably female) breast here and there. Europe has the right idea when it comes to nudity.
Aaand this is why America has problems with overly violent and overly sexually frustrated people.
My husband (who’s American, I’m English) watched Bruno the other day and was grossed out. He told me about some of the controversial scenes and couldn’t believe I didn’t think it was outrageous. I told him to look up Eurotrash.
depressing really
Yeah, the media is f*cked up. What I really hate is how video games find violence worse than nudity(or the other way around)… It’s just annoying.
{[_]
you forgot bare male ass and bare female ass (yes, only one of those is censored, and it’s not the one that should be censored)
that and other male and female parts
There is a great movie about the American rating system, This Film Is Not Yet Rated. It was an eye-opener. Just a few people from a small section of society guide this.
I am not moving from the USA but I would like to adjust a few things.
FREE THE BOOBIES!!!
LOL! No, really….I L’ed OL
For me real life is less censored than TV, since I live in Columbus Ohio and its legal for women to go topless here. Granted you still don’t see it much. Ironically, I have only seen it at gay pride parades.
Nonsense. Literally. Your words did not form a coherent thought. Please try again.
Haven’t been to Comfest, eh?
uhhhh what do you think of? babies?
um.. a treat FOR humanity. You know what, screw it, you were right, it doesnt make sense. XD
Haha, I definitely approve of this – natural selection at work. XD
