In related news the UK also has outright banned "The Human Centipede 2". The film doesn't sound any worse then most horror films, and given the fantastical quality of this movie, there are far more shocking, and disturbing films then this movie.

It all has to do with how they are being raised. The same people who make arguments about pop music on television are the same people who want to censor music and movies. I have always found it a bit funny how the UK mainstream media overblows any teenage trend it seems and, and are quick to say its corrupting the youth. Like when Stanley Kubrick had to pull "A Clockwork Orange" from the theatres due to copycats. Its not like America hasn't had its own moments of blaming crime on certain music or movies, but this knee-jerk get rid of if attitude that seems to happen in the UK is rather ridiculous.


This arguement is dumb, kids are smart and elusive and will watch what they want if they want to.

My parents wouldnt allow me to watch tons of things that I would easily just sneak off to friends houses to watch...

Also, blame the media system and advertising...not necessarily the actual contents of the media itself....

strip clubs, brothels and all kinds of things have been around since ancient times...for adults to enjoy...

...but we live in an era were sexual imagery and all kinds of oversaturated adds on billboards, buses, newspaper stands, etc etc run rampant.

floatingslowly made me laugh.

K, anyhow...good points made by Nefeli, LifeDistortion, and demonrail. I haven't had enough coffee to address these points singularly, and I do agree that upbringing plays some part in behavior, principles, etc., but a concise summation of my thoughts:

I truly believe that humans are born either dumb and impressionable, or intelligent and capable of deductive reasoning. I don't care if you're the child of neurosurgeons or homophobic moonshine brewers, you either understand that "yeah, looks cool on Playstation 3, but probably frowned upon to bring a machine gun to gym class," or you're a complete fucktard that probably had a few dents in the embryo to start with.

PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY IS DEAD.

So democracy scares you, does it? You oligarchical thinking fucks should move to North Korea and spare us your pitiful whining. And you can take that sad excuse for a paper that hardly anyone in the UK reads, The Guardian, with you.

Democracy is fine when it brings about what I want. When it doesn't it's merely the voice of the mob.

the big issue is porn becoming more mainstream - the current pop music simply channels that fact..
yes, it also reflects on the "tween" culture, and that is scary for most parents...


elvis's hips?
yep - the same story...

usually, peter hitchens is bursting into tears about something. or if he's not he sounds like he's sitting in front of a rain drizzled window on a dreary tuesday shaking his head and muttering. as if he's too deadened by the weight of defeat and hopelessness to do anything but watch the droplets slide down the glass. droplets that stand in for the tears his broken soul is now too empty to shed. the only thing that seems to cheer him up is googling himself and threatening legal action against anyone who has ever said anything about him he doesn't like ever. it's like he has some sort of fragile ego or something, i know that's a pretty far fetched conclusion but i'm just putting it out there.

then you'll get liz jones making another request that all of her readers send in whatever little cash they can afford because she's broke and close to starving. she will reappear in a few weeks with facelift number 46 and some mean person will write a comment about her and the £250,000 home she lives in as if we are supposed to come to some sort of conclusion. we love you liz! what's your address so i can send you half my pension this week? don't worry love, i might go a day without food but i couldn't bear to see my favourite columnist starve.

then you'll find melanie phillips berating us for not cheerleading for israel. she'll try the angle that we 'aren't real men' and are probably some sort of homosexuals. maybe if we send her the corpses of some palestinians she can eat them and god will be pleased with her. she does have the complexion of someone whose liver is giving her problems due to too much cannibalism.

melanie phillips has an interesting approach, it involves getting indignant and then throwing random facts, assertions, imaginings, over heard assumptions and down right fabrications into a pot. then she pisses in it, then mixes it with spittle and dandruff and scoops up the slop and let's it dry out on the radiator. once it's hardened she tries to divine some sort of 'hidden right wing truth' from it but if it's too hard she let's her own 'women's intuition' fill in the rest. in real life, most people are so put off by her that they find it best to just let her have her 'little shout' and then move on. people don't often challenge her on it, which is a shame because i think she would really enjoy this. she's like a lonely dog that never gets walked barking madly in the back yard, demanding attention, but if she gets it's only annoyed people trying to get her to settle down. then they will turn their heads away and try to ignore her all the more. maybe peter hitchens should invite her round for a crying session.

then it just descends into an incoherent malestrom of SCANDAL OUTRAGE SHRILL SHRIEK WIN A MILLION WIN A LIFETIME OF BOOZE YOU'RE TOO FAT YOU'VE GOT CANCER YOU'RE GOING TO GET CANCER LOOK AT THESE SEX CRIMES AREN'T THEY SHAMEFUL HERE LOOK AT THE EXPLICIT DETAILS NOW HERE'S PICTURES OF SOME CELBERITIES 13 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN HER G STRING ON THE BEACH PEOPLE ON BENEFITS ARE ROBBING YOU YOU'RE KEEPING THEM ALIVE WHEN THEY SHOULD BE GROUND UP AND FED TO YOUR HORSES IN THE STABLE OF THAT MANSION YOU'RE GOING TO GET WHEN YOU VOTE TORY AND WIN A MILLION IN OUR SCRATCH CARD GIVE AWAY ARRGGHHHGHRAHRHARHARHAHRAHRAHR!

Yes.
Somebody gave me OK magazine once and it was way worse than that.
