Don't get me started. It's a pet peeve of mine that, largely thanks to the dominant patriarchal religion, Western society regards sex between consenting adults to be an obscenity, but violence is perfectly acceptable and children may be exposed to tremendous amounts of it from a very young age. If this isn't completely twisted, I don't know what is.
No one has yet explained to me why, in our society, an act of life and love is filthy and needs to be censored, and acts of death and destruction are cool entertainment. Even the bible was full of both.
