Did I wake up in the Victorian Era???

its a Breast, people! It's not a bomb, the world is not going to end because Janet Jackson showed her boob on national TV, though everyone acts like it is.

Ever watch German TV after 9pm, you'll see lots of boobs. You can see naked men on Quebecois TV in the middle of the day (not that I was particularly looking for that). Somehow life goes on in European countries, even though kids might see boobs and even though 20 year olds might taste alcohol.

2. Geez

It's not about the breast. We all know that us woman have them and we all know that men are basically pigs and want to look at them all the time. It's about the fact that there is no problem showing a gratitious breast shot but we can't be shown a video deplicting how Chimpy's tax cuts will affect our kids in the future. Sex, violence, fear, & consumerism are being shoved down our throats but god forbid we might get information to helps us. Yes we know it's just a breast.

6. I have mixed feelings about EVERYTHING but the game.

The breast incident -- big deal. I don't care. But I TOTALLY understand why people are upset.

The whole halftime show -- a piece of shit. I despise anything -- film, movies, tv, magazines, whatever -- that glorifies misogyny, women as sex objects, men grabbing their parts, male entitlement to whatever woman they want whenever they want sex....

All the "entertainment" around the game: disgusting, pandering to cheap emotion and false patriotism.

The commercials: jesus christ, are all the ad people junior high school boys? Fart jokes, bitten-crotch jokes, waxed-crotch jokes, nagging wife shit.... it's all disgusting. I didn't even like the one w/ the kids w/ soap in their mouths -- that is NOT an acceptable punishment, IMO! There are other more civilized ways to teach your child not to use profanity if that's important to you.

7. Agreed

When I heard about it I just laughed and thought BFD.

Hell, the biggest boob in the world is trying to destroy the U.S. and no one seems to notice.

Although, I really would like to see CBS get its ass in a sling over this, it is only because they refused to run the Move-On piece.

8. I support breasts

The nay-sayers will continue to say nay, but I say yea.
