Either way though, it caused the thread to derail into quite unintended directions. Legolas Send a noteboard - 16/10/2013 06:35:21 PM

So I'd have been better off leaving it out from the start.

And while it's really not a matter of debate that the French are more relaxed about on-screen sex or nudity (I'm reminded of the TV version of Druon's Rois Maudits back in the sixties, in which at one point a female character walks around topless for an entire scene for no real discernible reason, forty years before HBO would make such random nudity their trademark), the surprisingly vehement French debate about gay marriage and other things have made clear that the gap between the countries in terms of social liberalism isn't as big as the French might like to think.

No. "Puritan prudishness" characterizes much of America perfectly. Leave it in. - 16/10/2013 03:10:01 PM 796 Views

It's obvious to many Americans also. Just saying. - 16/10/2013 12:28:30 PM 833 Views
I think it's silly and thin-skinned to get offended at statements of the obvious. - 16/10/2013 03:07:18 PM 806 Views
