It's just how the US is.

I was watching a very violent move, late at night, on a cable channel. All kinds of violence - no problem.

Suddenly an inured woman is being given first aid, in the process one nipple falls out of her shirt briefly - GIANT blur.

The root causes for this pro-violence/anti-sex culture could be interesting for sociology researches.

That's a little different though. The blood in that movie was fantasy. The nipple was real.

I don't think you should be down-voted. I find your thinking process fascinating.

People in the US don't go to movies to watch real violence. There's no actual war footage in most war movies, even though it's readily available. Audiences like indulging in a fantasy of violence, but we don't really glorify real violence.

What do you think of the approach to TV censorship in Europe, where fantasy violence is blurred, but nudity and sex are not?

[sp332]

I'm not completely sure. I think the idea is that violence is inherently destructive whereas nudity is not. Probably using sex as entertainment is more socially acceptable than enjoying violence, even fake violence. shrugs
