Why are Americacns so uptight about sensorship. I am from Europe where people are alot more open minded.
Is it the puritan roots? Or are Americans just ashamed of their bodies?

im 20.
and an american female.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder..and one's body is a temple of sorts, and doesnt Need to be shown off in its entireity---[nude. ]
It is definitely a Cultural thing [the sensorship] i believe, some countries raise Children to believe that Nudity amongst All is uniformely accepted. I can say that the U.S Isn't that way at all. although as generations grow, nudity is becoming more and more accepted.
i Personally see Nothing wrong with teaching children to be comfortable with their bodies, and accept personal beauty, But there is A time and a Place for exposure, and i believe that the public eye isnt the place...
WE aren't ashamed. sheesh.
:))

Are you kidding? Just because there is sensorship, doesn't mean some people abide by the laws. What about the peep shows? Strip joints?And the showing of nude movies?Check out some of the sites on the internet!

You tell me and we'll both know, but I think you got it pretty close when ya asked about the puritan roots. They don't want to see nudity on TV but you can watch someone get shot every day of the week?I don't get it ether.

Americans are ashamed of their bodies because of all the beautiful fake people on tv. But they sure dont act like it.

Most of us are fat and out of shape. I would love to hang out naked with you. I dont think we should be ashamed of our bodys.Besides, if you look good my hat rack will always be with me.

maybe it's cause we realize that nudity has it's place and it's not for the whole world to see, unless you are in porn of course.
