Sup Forums I have an honest question. Why is nudity so obscene? Is it really? Why is it, children can not look at the nude human form, but can watch violence, death, and destruction on TV?

Please learn me, for I have lost my way.

I got really confused about that thumbnail.

We've sexualised nakedness. That's about it. No other reason.

Idk sexual arouses, misunderstanding of sexual identity, promiscuity etc either way is really bad violence is bad for young age also

because you live in the US
go to Europe and you'll see tits on billboards and way less violence on tv

because christians have a retarded morality

>Why is it, children can not look at the nude human form, but can watch violence, death, and destruction on TV?
because america, in my country it's the other way around

That's actually true. In Denmark, our buses drive around with bare breasts on the side. It's a commercial for plastic surgery.

Fantasy vs reality Sup Forumsro

That's just fucked up

Why? Because you've been conditioned to only correlate nakedness to sex? That's what's fucked up, if you ask me.

If you can't see a pair of breasts, without getting aroused, you should seek help.

It is strange. I was watching Bones the other day and wondered that even though they show mangled, people that got skinned, chopped, burned and left to rot. Even some corpses that have yet to decompose. We see 'em all. Yet at very least till the middle of second season I've yet to see a nipple or a boob, let along genitalia. Not on living and not on corpses.

And it is not the only case, not by far. It's a very common phenomenom in american tv. Stuff produced in my homeland show a bit of skin time to time if it indeed is at very least rated 16+. It's still far less than the corpses and violence.

What do you expect? We're a country founded by a puritan religious group who had to come to the new world to practice their ultra conservative religion.

Even 18th century England was like "OK you guys need to loosen the fuck up or gtfo"

*17th
sorry, everybody
sorry

I don't believe seeing a bare breast or even vagina can destroy a mind. Seeing a mangled and abused corpse on the other hand...

I was waiting for an idiotic answer like this. Does tthat explain why atheistic countries like China are even more prude? Arent you the same libtards that say America wasn't founded on Christian principles? Do us all a favor and kys

That's ok, user.

I love you.

Lots of dubs and trips in this short thread. What could it mean? :P

you're only talking about america. and other religious countries that are still stuck in the middles ages I guess. here in europe nudity is no big deal while violence is rather something that at least minors don't get access to that easily, especially in germany.

but obviously thanks to the internet none of that matters anymore as everything is freely available to anyone online.

And yet when we fight for religious freedom, you say we weren't founded on religious principles. Fucking idiot

...

fucking lol

super pissed about this myself. even thought here in canada its totaly legal for girls to go topless cops still harass them for it cause 'its sexual'

yet anyone and their mother can go buy a copy of call of duty or some other war game and participate in people killing each other.

I personaly think just keep your dick covered or your vag covered for health reasons. we dont need your smegma/pussy discharge on the buss seats thanks

they have their own ideology that everyone there follows like a religion. here in the modern world people should be able to use their own brains. but nah, they rather stick to whatever bullshit some retards came up with a few thousand years ago, based on the primitive knowledge they had back then.

so the great advantage we have over less deveoped countries is the freedom to choose the bullshit we want to blindly believe in

Just because Christian morality goes a long way toward explaining the typical American's anxiety about sexuality, doesn't mean other ideologies elsewhere couldn't also be internalized to similar ends.

In other words, both American Christianity and Chinese Atheism could affect their respective populaces' understanding of the body and sex.

Also, anyone who says the US wasn't founded on Christian principles is historically illiterate. Practically all of Western civilization is founded on Christianity.

dude, if you're not getting aroused by them in the least you're probably gay. why the fuck else do you think marketers would put tits and asses everywhere? so you can simply enjoy the aesthetics and see the correlation with the product that's being advertised?

it's the other way around. Your -culture- has deemed tits and asses as sexy. In ancient Greece, it was naked armpits.

Meh, what ever gets your rocks off, I guess.

JUDEO-CHRISTIAN VALUES

Desire is, to a large extent, artificial, OP.

One is taught what to desire--much more than most people realize.

well, there's the story of the founding fathers deciding to build the us as a country free of religion, but where everyone has the freedom to follow one if they choose to do so.

but obviously if you do get enough retards in one place who follow one ideology it becomes the one true and official ideology of the country that everyone has to follow.

so no matter how smart some guys might be, trying to create some great, the masses will always destroy it through their stupidity, inability to think for themselves and unfading will to follow the bullshit other leaders tell them

neither one should be exposed to children without proper explanation. Each will have some form of traumatization on them. Ex. whore teenage girls from over sexualization. Where as the violence is decreasing the value in life, this is where we have all the emo faggots, and school shooters who just don't give a shit because they lost their moral standards. It's ok to having these things problem is parents aren't identifying the shittyness in them, so kids think that garbage is cool.

Because people will kill for sex but not necessarily have sex before they kill.

yeah, I guess it's my culture that instilled that sex drive in me.

I wasn't talking about that obsession with body parts that we have now thanks to the porn industry and sex sells marketing, I'm talking about being aroused by seeing genitals. it's in your genes.

though I do wonder if those african tribes who run around naked all day feel the same arousal at least in a private setting. although most of them cover their genitals as well, only those hanging deflated tits of them sexy african girls are always shown.

yeah, I don't think they'd show them everywhere is they were actually nice to look at.

You are gay deal with it

You're partly right, but the roots of Christianity go even deeper than that.

Even the logic of utilitarianism--upon which western democracy has been based for centuries upon centuries--has roots in Christian morality (among other systems of thought).

Even modern secular atheist types largely draw from Christian morality in order to establish their own moral constellations.

A great quote by the German philosopher Max Horkheimer: "[Modern man] retained God, but not grace."

There's two types of woman in this world:

This thread makes me happy in my brain parts. It's nice to see Sup Forums has intellectuals lurking.

conservative people don't want to talk to their shitty kids about sex. ever.
