Not only that, I think Americans in particular are way too prudish and offendable when it comes to sex, and this starts bordering on religious influence in my mind. I've had enough rodeos down this line of discussion to know that this will be my only vague comment on these feelings.
I think that's the polar opposite view of walms's comment, but I might be wrong.
Not really the polar opposite, my personal views are that using human sexual drive as a means of marketing and mass entertainment is corrupt on many levels. But my point was more, the double standard is stupid. Why can we use half naked women in the media but not expect men to think of women as sexual objects? We are told they are all the time.
I'm not American so I can't comment on how prudish people are there, but I think you are correct people do get offended way to easy. But we live in an age that tells women to value them selves based on their sexual appeal and men to value them selves on the sexual conquests. And saying that is wrong to me has nothing to do with being prudish.
Personally I think we have gone way too far with what we deem "unprofessional" or "inappropriate".
I'm with Louis CK when I find myself being offended by hearing some white lady with nice hair saying the phrase "the N word" on CNN.
