Cartilage Head:
Best quote;

"What's wrong with that?"

"We don't know but its very offensive."

 Also this is my biggest gripe with the MPAA and basically censoring in general: Sex is considered extremely uncalled for and offensive, while obscene amounts of violence are often rarely questioned or challenged by the media.

I've been thinking about this a bit recently. I think it might be because, consciously or unconsciously, censors and governmental people think that sex is something people are likely to do, whereas most people don't have a predisposition towards extreme violence; so it's more likely that people will see sex on T.V. or in films, and get inspired to go and have some sex for themselves; therefore, it's more "dangerous" to depict sex than it is to depict violence. Of course this doesn't explain why sex itself is regarded with such fear or moral outrage, but that's another issue altogether.

--- Quote from: Sheila Broflovski ---Remember what the MPAA says; Horrific, Deplorable violence is okay, as long as people don't say any naughty woids! That's what this war is all about!

Surgoshan:
Okay, now I've finished watching the documentary.  I agree that the secrecy and whatnot are bad, the standards are whacked, and that overall the MPAA is bad.

One thing; the voice re-enacting for the male lawyer representing the appeals board was clearly very slanted.  I didn't like it and it was jarring.
