I'm going to take the other side of this one. My starting point is the Super Bowl. During that game, advertisers spent $4M for one commercial. Are they fools? Or can they, in 30 or 60 seconds, make a $4M+ change in peoples' behavior?

I suspect that they know what they're doing. Because they are putting their money where their mouth is. I trust them more than I trust all those who say that all the sex and violence (hours and hours of it) doesn't matter, because it doesn't change anybody's behavior. Follow the money, trust the money. The money says what we see changes behavior. (Not everybody's, not 100%. But enough to matter.)

So I take the position that neither the sex nor the violence is good for us as a society. It causes actual changes in behavior.

Why do you assume people would have sex less often after watching depictions of sexual acts?
