MPAA is still controlled by a vague group of older christian people and the movie ratings reflect that.

Like the fact that a PG-13 movie (IIRC) can get a single "fuck", not two. Just one.

Violence is fine, you just can't show its effects (no blood no matter how much you get beaten, bloody scrapes seem to be A-OK).

Sex and sexuality are absolutely banned in every way.

In MPAA-land, hacking a breast off with a machete is R-rated, but kissing it earns you an instant X (well, NC-17).

I heard a funny clip of the actors who played the Hobbits in LoTR where, precisely, the best place to drop their one-and-only f-bomb; they’d limited themselves to the whole franchise, maybe? Funny stuff.
