When a society has descended into the level of decadence we find ourselves, decent people are eventually forced underground. It is a societal axiom, in order for a people to stay cohesive and strong, to have a set of values a majority espouses. Otherwise, the death of a culture is inevitable. A significantly important requirement to avoid a nation's internal disintegration is to have some little knowledge of the historical outcomes of previous deviant cultures. Sadly, this basic awareness seems to be missing of late.
Well, I don't think about it too much but yesterday I was at the movies and saw a preview for the new Transformers movie and the first thing they showed was Megan Fox straddling a motorcycle in short shorts and an "I'm Ready For Sex" look on her face while polishing the handles. Now, pretty much everyone sitting around me was laughing at that because it was SOOOO over the top unnecessary and contrived. It was almost like a parody.
Why do you think you "shouldn't have to do that"? The world is complicated. Rather than trying to shut down all forms of speech that you don't like, you could use those moments to educate your kids. I bet you're a lot more uncomfortable talking about sexuality than they would be.

Oh please.... yeah, I should educate my 11 year old (what about even younger children) on erectile dysfunction? Are you freakin serious or just saying that to see what kind of reaction you get? You can't possible be that tone deaf, can you?
Do you have children? I bet not.
How about the drug companies don't bombard the airwaves and cable channels with constant video billboards aimed at guys who can't get boners? How about if they really have to do that, they do it at a more appropriate time, when young children aren't watching. Or a better idea is just let men discuss their issues privately with their doctor, then no one has to endure that crap.
Ha, ha. Not of that "persuasion", but do appreciate your "concern".
Hey, just following Supreme Court tests.
But, I think its based on whether THEY get aroused.
They are some old, old fogies.
