Morals?

I just wanted to complain a moment about the incredibly twisted view our society has on what constitutes "immorality." It's most apparent in the ludicrous notion that sex/nudity is considered worse than violence. I was reading a review of a video game that contains nudity (unlike the vast majority). The reviewer was all praise for the game that had plenty of "extremely gory action." Then, he says one of the few downpoints of the game was the "badtaste" left by nudity.

If you've ever seen a video game, you know how bad they are. Blood flies everywhere, body parts are removed, screams of pain and torment following you around every turn. It's bad. The same occurs in TV and the movies. Violence is bad, but not shocking. Nudity and cursing(to a lesser degree) are. I was appalled when I was watching an episode of Firefly to stop a character from cursing, the writers had him inflicted with an intense amount of pain (he was being interrogated in the scene). That was definetly a low point.

Does this make sense to any of you? That words and flesh are more depraved than human pain and suffering? What on earth is the problem that a society that has this value system? I try to follow a "if it doesn't hurt me or anyone else, I don't care" approach. Do I support wanton nudity? For shock/pornagraphic value, no. If you've got an artistic reason, or if you want to set up an "atmosphere", go right ahead. Half of the country has boobs and the other half wants to see them (and most probably have).

As for cursing, words are just words. It's almost hypocritical that I don't curse myself, but I've got some sort of mental block. I don't mind them though. And, rationally, no one else should either.

As for violence... Meh. Any piercing of skin, medical or homicidal, I have a hard time watching. I don't have a phobia of shots, I just can't watch it happen. I just don't enjoy it. So guess what? I don't. I close my eyes if it's an otherwise fine show or I don't watch it in the first place.

So... RAWR! (Font changes instead of cursing. Hooray!)

Edit: By the way, sorry about the downer posts. But you're used to them.
