I recall making that point several days ago after seeing a Dateline 
(or some such show) interviewing a bunch of preachers and people on 
the street. I was amazed that they weren't concerned about the 
violence. The were horrified at the sex. I don't think the kids had 
the option of killing those involved in sex. They could decimate cops 
and innocent bystanders in the violent parts. I recall mentioning 
some time ago that a station could air the dismemberment of a naked 
woman but couldn't air that same woman making love without going 
through the same hassle as the Superbowl wardrobe malfunction. . I 
don't get it.
